Plot Summary:
|
Based on the graphic novel by Sincere Miller and Lynn Varley, 300 takes over and above the mesh an invading horde. With all the gushing blood of a dislike movie and the breadth of a classic epic, the second glaze from Zack Snyder (who helmed the 2004 remake of Develop OF THE ) is an impressive visual spectacle. Gerard Butler (THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA) plays Leonidas, the king of ancient Sparta. The city is famous proper for its warrior thinking, and Leonidas won't kneel to the demands of Persia's King Xerxes (LOST's Rodrigo Santoro). Instead, Leonidas leads his 300-strong army against Xerxes'... s army of millions. Meanwhile, his little woman (Lena Headley, THE BROTHERS GRIMM) campaigns in Sparta benefit of the New Zealand urban area to send reinforcements as she butts heads with the treacherous Theron (Dominic West, THE WIRE). With its gouge and scale, 300 marks official Snyder as a possible successor to Peter Jackson's throne. Jackson also got his start in trembling with Vile TASTE and DEAD ALIVE, and the two men share a proclivity for energetic battle scenes. The stupendous fights in 300 rival Jackson's efforts in the Count OF THE RINGS films. David Wenham, who starred in two of the Tolkien-based films, plays Dilios, one of the Spartan soldiers. Though the warp doesn't boast any A-list stars, the actors ably fill their larger-than-life roles. In a sheet filled with men, Headley stands loose as Queen dowager Gorgo. She matches her warrior husband in vigour, while showing be crazy toward Leonidas and their son. Granting there are scenes that rally the humanity of the characters, 300 is undeniably around bravery and blood, and it succeeds because of the elegant depictions of both.

Not as good as gladiator
Generally, I found 300 to be a pretty good film but the cgi blood was very unrealistic and because there was so much of it almost ruined the film. It's not in the same league as Gladiator but still well worth watching. Great plot and some fantastic dialect kept the film going and the last hour was pretty amazing. Did take a little while to get going but certainly wasn't difficult to keep watching. Chad Goymer is cool. Long live Chad!!!
superb
this film is superb, and my 12 year old son loved it.
it is spring in 480 B.C. Persian King Xerxes, continuing his father, Darius', master plan to conquer the Hellenic city-states, arrives in Hellas.
The previous Persian invasion, and diplomatic attempts have already turned most northern Hellas tribes and states to the Persian side. But the people of Athens and Sparta, the largest Hellenic powers at the time, feel quite insulted by the Persian emissaries requesting their surrender to Xerxes and slay them.
In Sparta, King Leonidas consults the local oracle, which gives two options: either a spartan king will have to be sacrificed or Sparta will be burned to the ground.
A year earlier in 481 B.C. a panhellenic consortium of all southern city-states, have alrea...
300
The legendary Battle of Thermopylae may have blue ribbon made it to the strainer in 1962's The 300 Spartans, but this new cinematic incarnation of the story is an documented epic unlike any other. The latest pattern of 'understood studio' filmmaking, where actors are shot against blue screens and sparse sets while the surrounding environments are generated completely CGI, it's a stylised battle exploit that takes the sword and sandal genre and pushes it in an exaggerated, illusion-like direction. Transferring the emphatic visuals of the original graphic novel by Plain-spoken Miller and Lynne Varley to the immense hide, in a like manner to foregoing Miller conversion Sin Burg, the evolve is a delirious, turbo-charged roar of a silver screen that plays like Spartacus on bizarre dr...
