This Is SPARTA

Rating: Null/10 (13 April 2010)

A visually arresting tale of bravery, courage & patriotism and brings Frank Miller's graphic novel to life in lifelike fashion, 300 works because of its near-perfect blend of stylish direction from Zack Snyder, engrossing tale of heroism, larger-than-life action, arresting cinematography, groundbreaking visual effects, catchy one-liners, intriguing characters, strong performances, meticulous sound, cut-throat editing & grandeur soundtrack.
Led by Gerard Butler's roaring performance, this fictionalised retelling of the Battle of Thermopylae is a feast for the eyes that takes over the screen like an invading horde & leaves its viewers more than satisfied. With its scope of a classic epic, thrilling battle sequences & impressive production, 300 is a visually stunning & wildly entertaining piece of historical fantasy about bravery & blood, and succeeds majorly because of the stylish depictions of both.
