300 Movie Review


It seems that lately the movies I've seen have been nothing other then brilliant. It may seem that I rate every movie I see as awesome but that's not the case it just so happens that the few movies ive seen lately are in a class of there own. Now I know I said Pans labyrinth was visually inspiring well 300 takes the cake. It uses computer generated backgrounds for all its scenes as in the Frank Miller movie Sin City, but 300 does it better in a way that it captures the setting of ancient Greece perfectly which could not have worked using real outside sets. The action in this movie is hard, brutal and continues coming at you unrelentlessly much like what happens to the characters in this movie so it suits it well.
The story of 300 is based on a true event when a spartan army of 300 men fought against an invading Persuin empire of 250 thousand! This may seem unbelievable but it is spectacularly true. This movie conveys perfectly how the Spartans fought against the invading armies with such heroics that it united all of Greece together to fight the invading Persians. the actors in this fit their roles perfectly with a beefed up Australian David Wehnem playing a major role in the film. The men in this movie are all muscle with 6 packs being in shot 90 percent of the movie and the women sexy in a dangerous way. I would recommend this movie to anyone over the age of 15 and give it 9/10. To go to the movies official site click here
