Good Visuals

Well I expected that the story would be a bit off and I expected that it would be a living comic book so in those matters I was correct. I found that many of the "pictures" presented were truly beautiful. Now the rest of what I felt is not quite that positive. The use of "mutants" was just dumb and certainly one was enough. Additionally if you "must" use mutants maybe you should improve on the makeup job so that it looks better than the Lon Chaney Sr. silent version of Hunchback of Notre Dame, which sadly it did not. Perhaps spending more than 6 dollars on a scriptwriter would have helped as well as I can't imagine how the actors were able to keep a straight face during the utterance of some of these lines.The audience that I sat with openly laughed at some of the lines and the acting was - well - you can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear so is cardboardian an word? Xerxes as a Huh-sexual? pierced Giant. I have always admired the Greek Culture and the bravery of the men in this battle but if I see one more shot of greased up six packed posed hoplites I may become physically ill, after the 12th one I was impressed enough. One last item: If Lena Heady reads this I hope she knows I love her with all my heart and I would spend my life making her feel adored.
