Unbelievable!!!

Rating: 10/10 (8 March 2007)

Today 300 premiered worldwide in Greece (even though some Greek theaters arranged some screenings on 7th of March near midnight). What can anyone really say after seeing this spectacular movie? It's all about your entertainment really!!! Don't expect to see a documentary or all the historical facts. It's purely for what it meant to be. A Hollywood movie based on Frank Millers' comic, which itself was based on the story of Leonidas and his 300 men that fought against Xerxis and his vast army(to say things in plain English). I'm not going to bore you with details and so, just to say that the movie is a milestone for the film industry considering the whole package, acting(Butler is absolutely mad(!), really into his role, photography is breathtaking making you to hit the button (if there was any) and to make any shot your favorite wallpaper and finally directing is beyond any fantasy. Some may try to compare it with Sin City and the Lord of The Rings. Well, as years go by the sure thing is that films that depend on technology will outdo the older ones. This is the case and for that, the comparison would be unfair and subjective. Don't get mad or disappointed. Maybe Sin City 3 will outdo 300 as well(well Sin City 2 may find things difficult, don't really know, just a thought). To summarize, one of the best movies I have ever seen, even though I can't get out of my mind the fact that there was only one external shot, a real test for your eyes and your mind!!! If I would see it again?Definitely!!! By the way I expect a serious DVD packaging and of course an Extended Version!!!Yes we wants it!!!
