This film tells a beautiful story. Although based on a comic book, it is STILL part of our history.

Rating: 9/10 (13 May 2007)

I do not agree with anyone who claims that this movie is a pro-whomever propaganda, or that it is racist, or what else... If anyone feels insulted by the movie, then it only shows his shallowness and ignorance. This film presents a TRUE EVENT from our history. Wake up all those who forget about it! The people who died at Thermopylae gave their lives to save their fellow countrymen and their beloved motherland. Kserkses and his army cannot be showed in favourable light by anyone who knows anything about ancient history. He enslaved millions of people! He was corrupted, and no one really cared when he died. Even his family wanted to get rid of him. Kserkses died assassinated by his own people, his own family... THIS IS HISTORY. This film shows part of this history. Not all the facts are known, since these events took place more than two thousands years ago. There is some Fantasy in it of course. Show me a film without it...
