So...I just saw 300. Now, I'm betting that you will come up with many valid criticisms of it: they do enhance the Persian army to a ridiculous size when it's not really necessary; they do add this subplot with the queen which is not really necessary and they make Xerxes have a really strange voice for unknown reasons. But I don't care. Those 2 hours were 2 of the most fun I have had in a cinema since I can remember. Leonidas was perfect, they captured the look of the graphic novel perfectly and the battle scenes were simply incredible. And, oh yeah, it's a true story. It's not a film that will win any awards, but it is was certainly a true cinematic experience.
