Overrated

Rating: 6/10 (29 March 2007)

This movie has lots of historical errors which might incur unjust prejudice.
For example, the social structure of Sparta was based upon slaves. It's hilarious to watch them babbling about freedom.
Persia was far from barbaric or demonic. Actually, Persia was much more advanced than Sparta. And it was Greece which assaulted & provoked, in the first place.
But that was not what bothered me most. It's based upon a comic book, after all.
It was the dull plot and awkward narratives that annoyed me.
Yes, the action scene is stylish and beautiful. But that's all. Actually, the action sequences even get a bit repetitive. I expect more than that from a movie.
