Discrediting a Legend!

Rating: 3/10 (13 March 2007)

There is no doubt that the 300 Spartans made a legendary act of patriotism for all the history, but the way they showed Persians in this movie, and it is exaggeratedly evil, was clearly oriented to the current political crisis with Iran's nuclear program.
This is a clearly visible fact and however the current government of Iran is acting as a trouble making regime in the region, there is yet not a single reason to demonstrate ancient Iranians as evil creatures and harming the feelings of millions of Iranians all over the world.
Beside that, the film is extremely failing on demonstrating the accepted and confirmed historical evidences regarding that specific period of the antique age.
I may say the film makers again sacrificed a contemporary legend for a temporary political agenda.
