Spectacular Visuals

Rating: 7/10 (9 March 2007)

I saw 300 last night at the midnight showing, and I think what most impressed me was how great this movie looked. It was fun to see all of what the Persian Army had to offer, and even more interesting to see the really weird oddities it had within it. I felt like from a dramatic standpoint this movie did not quite get me to care about the characters so much that if something happened to them, it affected me. There were some speeches that characters would give sometimes that were just kind of dull, and did not add much to the movie. But people are not going to go to this movie for that stuff anyway. It's a visual feast, and a great movie to sit back and enjoy all that the screen has to offer.
