Worth every penny!

Rating: 10/10 (9 April 2007)

My mate had been to see 300 hundred a few days before me. I had been trying to persuade my girlfriend to come and see it with me but she was having none of it. I went to see "the holiday" (rubbish) with her! Anyway, i sat down in the theatre quite relaxed blissfully unaware that the next couple of hours would be some of the most thrilling in my movie going life. A visually resplendent film charged on screen and captivated me from start to finish. It had everything i wanted. Fantastic acting, fantastically rendered characters and fight scenes that made mouth drop and prostate tingle. Gerrard butler was superb as the testosterone fuelled warrior king Leonidas and he and his musclebound band of Spartans made me feel rather inadequate when i come to think of it. But apart from having my male pride shattered and stood on, this film is one of the best i have seen for a long time. I haven't been this gripped since children of men. If you are some poor blokes girlfriend or effeminate partner please allow them to go and see this film. They deserve it. It makes you want to run around a field wielding a stick, push over weak kids and shout THIS IS SPARTA!!!
