Can't Beat the Spartans

Rating: 10/10 (14 March 2007)

Fearless, brave, valiant. They were Spartans. The mighty King Leonidas led a team of 300 Spartan free soldiers against thousands of Persian slaves in the ancient battle of Thermopylae. The resulting battle made one hell of a movie. In the film 300, there is a non-stop sense of action and constant entertainment. This sensational film develops a unique, artistic, comic book sense of directing while never losing it's grip on the audience. Gerard Butler stars as King Leonidas who leads a cast of a relatively unknown, but none-the-less spectacular, Spatan army. The action sequences are superb and intense. As the death toll rises so does the audience's interest. This movie has it all and will leave everyone in the theater and at home staring and not daring to miss a second of it. And as for the outcome of the battle, you'll just have to go and see for yourself.
