Pros and cons

Rating: 3/10 (22 February 2020)

Pros:
Sick character designs, literally like a dozen cool looks throughout
Can have decent scene to scene tension, action
Cons:
Not clever in any way, no good writing (with the exception of one liners)
Spartans ethics are never challenged even once
Slow motion is egregious
Story is predictable, very simple
Don't care at all about any nameless Spartans, I know Leonidas will survive to the end, so the long term tension is nonexistent
Looks bad, very flat and fake
Best part: that first scene where they block attacks with the phalanx, cool stuff
Worst part: that slow motion shot of the queen walking in the courtyard, definition of frustrating
