Killing

Rating: 10/10 (18 July 2019)

Butler and Headey are both terrific in this movie, and so are the rest of the cast. Butler's tough Scots accent fits perfectly into the personality of Leonidas, the Spartan head honcho, especially when he voices his contempt for the Athenian boy lovers, and lets the messenger know "This is Sparta" . Another reviewer tells me that this is a great make for a Frank Miller comic. The fact is that these events may be violent, unethical and wrong, but they are also comical. I couldn't help laughing. Especially when Xerxes descends from his throne.
