Visually Brilliant, but definitely lacking in other areas

Rating: 8/10 (28 September 2009)

When i first went to see this film, i had low expectations. I thought "WONDERFUL, this is just gonna be another violence-every-second, with no story line Hollywood film." I was proved wrong however. This film is very well done, with a decent story line to boot, a rarity for a lot of movies in this particular category. Gerard Butler is very good at playing his role as the spartan leader. the slo-mo affects got a bit old after awhile, but the battle sequences were still pretty good. In between the battle scenes was lacking though. It seems as if those scenes were put there just to divide up the battle scenes.
the special effects in this movie are spectacular. If you liked the way the matrix was filmed, then you are going to love this movie! some scenes are just jaw dropping, especially if you see it in the imax.
In my opinion this is still a very well done film, with good plot, okay cast, and a not-so-good dialogue.
