Acctualy based on a Novel and the Novel is Based on a real event.

Rating: 10/10 (26 June 2007)

I could never say that all the things in this movie really happened. The Extra long spears were real the cliff was real. I heared about a battle somewhere in Greece against Persians. The music is two metalized for a dark age movie. I have seen this movie it was great but you cant leave the theater saying man the movie was sweet all the blood and gore. Think about how they were seeing almost 1000000 estimated enemies coming from a distance. This movie i hope gets nominated for almost all the academy awards. Yes this movie was very digitalized but they had to make it unrealistic to what the real battle was like. Only a few swords were acctualy needed. They fought for less then a week holding them off till they had to retreat thats what acctualy happened. But thing film had extremely good sword play in it though. When this movie comes out don't spend 5$ to get it spend 15 or 20$ to own it.
