All 300 were wonderful

Rating: 10/10 (12 March 2007)

As a Greek I feel flattered. Gerald Butler is the ideal Leonidas. "this is Sparta" quote still haunts me. If one bears in mind that this is not a History Channel release ,then is relieved to enjoy a masterpiece.Easily shades Gladiator. Director Snyder has followed closely the graphic novel but has let himself to leave his personal mark too.Almost every single scene is such iconic that the graphic novel could be reprinted directly from the film. The people who know the statue of Zeus(or Poseidon)exhibited at the National Archaeological Museum of Athens, can immediately recognize it in flesh and blood as Gerald Butler.
