I saw 300 this Friday. I give it a B-
I was entertained. I loved the battle scenes, and the killing,a nd I need to see it again because I am sure I missed some choice killing and decapitation and gore.
According to the historians the 300 spartans held off the persian army long enough to allow the greeks to gather a force to battle the persians. Liek the Alamo and shit.
and Freedom is NOT free. whatever bush has ever done and said, when he said this, he was RIGHT.
all in all i found the movie thin, but historically accurate when it comes to the spartans. they DID kill off weak children. they did train their boys to endure paina nd fear. they did take the bouys from mother's at age 7 and train them in combat and killing. All that stuff is true.
and BTW, I too thought Blade II was great! I enjoyed it thoroughly!
