War movie of high quality, with memorable scenes!!!

Rating: 9/10 (26 May 2007)

I enjoyed a lot this movie...it had both adventure and unpredictability...The actors, beginning with Gerard Butler and Lena Headey, played their roles in a splendid manner...I also enjoyed the main concept of this film: fighting and dying with honor to protect the freedom of one and of its people, and also trying to do the impossible...I remember also a historical event , when the Ruler of 15 century of Valachia, Vlad Dracula the Impaler managed in a night attack to destroy an Ottoman army of 1million men, with troupes of 30 times lower...But there it was all about strategy...A main flaw in this movie that bothered me was the lack of strategy...I mean , the Spartan army managed to kill a lot of Persian troupes, but it didn't had a plan so as to guarantee the victory...Beside this and some scenes that weren't as logical as i expected, this movie was great.
