Return of the King with Matrix sprinkle and a bit of Sin City on top

Rating: 10/10 (23 June 2007)

Yes that's right....there are elements from all of those movies in this one and i have to say it's eye candy.
First of all this movie is not a history lesson, if a history lesson is what you want, don't watch it. The only thing that relates to history is that there really was a battle at Termopyle and that 300 Spartans along with king Leonidas managed to hold the Persian Army for two days killing huge number of their soldiers. As for the battles themselves they are completely based on Frank Millers graphic comic.
The battle scenes are superb..as i said in the title of my review it's like "The return of the King" combined with "The Matrix" simply stunning.
For the gore lovers...there's enough blood to keep you guys interested until the end.
Many say that all the lines in this movie are cheesy and what not. I fail to see it. If they are referring to the talk about freedom and honor...It's a movie about a war..battles..that's the kind of dialog you will hear in these type of movies. There are also some lines which i love...i won't include them here so i won't spoil the movie ( listen to a few of Stelios's lines)
The acting was good... my opinion is that Gerrard Buttler did a great job as Leonidas.
This movie makes you cheer for it's heroes, and feel hatred for the villains (just like a comic book)
OK i think i said all that was needed (allmost like the movie does) so i just want to tell you that it would be a very bad idea to skip this movie. Do yourself a favor and watch it and you won't be disappointed.
My rating for it is 10/10 though i do have 1 complaint...I wanted at least another hour of battles in it :)
