Excellent and fun movie

Rating: 9/10 (21 May 2007)

Great movie with outstanding special effects. If you want historical accuracy steer clear of this film as it is based on a comic book and can only loosely be said to have anything to do with reality.
Individuals who find the movie offensive because the Persians were the "bad guys" and find a political theme are looking too hard. Every movie needs a bad guy, and Hollywood is hardly known for reality in its villains (think Max Baer in "Cinderella Man". By all accounts, he was a very nice man and a far cry from the arrogant and evil Baer in the movie).
Watch this movie if you want to enjoy a well done, excellently choreographed, FUN movie.
This movie is NOT kid friendly, as it is extremely violent. If you enjoyed "Gladiator" or "Troy" go see this movie!
