THE coolest movie I have ever seen

Rating: 10/10 (10 March 2007)

Take Sin City, and Lord Of The Rings, and mash them together, and you get 300. Some of the most entertaining and exhilarating battle scenes in all of film history. The special effects are awesome, the battle sequences are awesome, the story is awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome. I also heard that it follows the actual story line very closely, so for you history buffs, it has an appealing taste for you as well, besides the giant elephants and the kind of random goat person. The point is, this movie is fun for everyone, (except for the little kiddies) There are lots of decapitations, and body parts being hacked off. But it really reflects how battles were and the fierceness of these people. I read somewhere that during Napoleon's era, when he was sweeping across Europe, Sparta was still and underground city type thing, and Napolean was too scared to even go near them. And i think that, that feeling comes through in this movie, the actors and director do an incredible job of showing how powerful and united they were. There was also a lot of good filming. Lots of very close ups and interesting angles and perspectives. I would also recommend, if there is any i-max nearby, make the extra effort to go see it. I drove 3 and a half hours to watch it, and it was definitely well worth the drive. If your going to see the movie, see it right. So if you plan on goinbg to see any movies this year, this is the one to see, it is just action packed, pure awesomeness and down right COOL.
