It's better to say this movie was totally based on the comic book not historic event

Rating: 5/10 (21 April 2007)

I felt a bit uncomfortable as well after watching this movie. In this movie, bad and good were obvious. It was a blockbuster itself whose story line was very simple but which had spectacles. The thing that made me unpleasant most was that almost every evil was connected to ugly appearance. The Persian army which we-audience as well as Greek army- should defeat was close to monsters. The movie says in the aspect of appearance, the thing which looks nice like the blond guys of Greece is good, whereas the thing which looks ugly and almost disgusting like the Persian warriors is bad. It seems like the movie insists that we should fight against the ugly. It does not make sense, but it is very difficult to find out another reason 300 of Greek army fight in the movie. Why could not the movie makers show the reason they had wars more rationally? The Persian army must have had their own reasons that they could not avoid fighting like the Greek army did. It is not that they fought because they were uncivilized and unsightly.
