Just for a little bit....I was a Spartan.

Rating: 10/10 (9 March 2007)

Yes there are historical inaccuracies in this movie. Like any good war story some facts must be embellished, some of the events skewed all in an effort to draw the listener in and FEEL what happened in that battle. The movie 300 does that in a way that leaves you craving another chapter to be told. Those that are going to see this movie expecting a documentary of Spartan life, skip it. Wait for another special to be done by the History Channel....or, go and enjoy this sensory feast of art. . Think comic book come to life and you've got this movie spot on. Even if you aren't a fan of comics it is well worth the price of admission for the speeches King Leonidas gives his men. (It made Mel Gibsons speech in Braveheart sound a like pep-rally at a girls school.) Yes, for just a little bit, I too was a Spartan.
