I saw this movie a few weeks ago, and want to see other people's takes on it. It has gotten a lot of hype due to the CGI graphics and the violence. The movie completely trashed the box offices for March releases and should certainly make the producers happy with the amount of money it continues to rake in.

For my part, the shallow story really drug it down, in my opinion. The actors did the best with the material they got, which wasn't much. It was certainly visually interesting to watch, but I question people's amazment at the CGI advancements that make the movie look like a video game. Is that truly a step forward in CGI? I had thought the goal was to get more and more realistic, not more and more cartoonish. Whatever.... I give it 2.5/5.

THIS IS SPARTA!!!!!!

Any movie that can make another culture seem more gay than the ancient greeks is pretty impressive. The vibe I got from 300 was, "We Spartans have to defend our conservative values and honorable country against the freaks and the homosexuals." Xerxes throneroom looked like the Cantina in Star Wars.

The visual style was interesting though, and it was a fun movie to giggle at.

all I got from the movie was the worriors yell : ou...ah :lol
that was so funny to watch :lol
And besides the rest of inaccuracies in Sparta it was allowed for women to talk and oppose in a council, and they were ""notorious" in antiquity that they were allowed to choose their sexual partners!!!

Well, about all I got out of it was that Xerxes (http://www.devir.com.br/zero_2006/not_300_santoro.jpg) was apparently a System Lord (http://college-de-vevey.vd.ch/eleves/info_03-04/site_LG_8b3/images/image_stargate/apophis.jpg). He even spoke like a Gould. :p
