good movie ,but

Rating: 6/10 (10 August 2015)

briefly speaking, I liked the film for its battle scenes.But histrionics and dialogues are not great.What I did not like mainly is the depiction of the Persian emperor Xerxes.Have they not seen or known about the statues of Persian kings and nobles at Persepolis and other ruins? the Persian emperor is shown as an African tribal chief!Awful.Was it done purposefully,or out of ignorance?Anyway this is a big flaw.the king is shown half naked with a loin cloth and lots of primitive type of beady ornaments.From ancient times Persian nobles were wearing long below the knee shirts, cummerbunds,big turbans and shoes.and what about the Armour plates covering the chests of the Greek heroes? They go to war bare chested,and some of them even without helmets!
