When style does matter!

Rating: 9/10 (9 April 2007)

All the people who blame this movie are, of course, well-informed in history. And, perhaps, they are right when it comes to blame 300 for its very slight correspondence to the real events. But, if you were attentive enough, you could notice that the developers in no way wanted their movie to be historical. Why should they remake the good old classics when... they can make something different, stylish, state-of-the art. When you go to the theater to watch a graphic novel and you get it, why should such experience be blamed? As for me, it's just a surrealism, the art of creating a new kind of world, which is neither real, nor mythological. It's just fashionable. And the movie's got style! From colors to identical men's bodies. It's just a candy, a great show. Besides, not lacking some purpose. Some PC games we like because of their graphics, why can't it be true speaking about movies?! So, guys, please, get over your preconceptions. Enjoy the screen without straining your mind. For that purpose you may see most of the top 250 movies, which I also adore.
