This movie was built on the work of stunt men and special effects people alone - no direction, no acting, and no writing. Gerard Butler, along with all the "actors" looked like a centerfold for gay porn. As a straight female I'm not attracted to that. After spending hard-earned money to watch this movie in all its IMAX glory, I have to say I was frightened. Not by the movie. I was scared that the director and the vast majority of the audience are of age to vote in the coming presidential election. I was also left with the impression that "300" was the collective IQ of the people in the first 20 rows of the audience.

This was an adaptation of a graphic novel "think comic book" that was based on a historical battle. Of course the focus will be on violence and visuals. The movie was filmed in front of a blue screen specifically so the highly stylized visuals of the graphic novel could be duplicated. If you're looking for great writing, don't watch a war movie based on a comic book. Try a Coen Brothers film. What this does offer is very uniquely stylized visuals and a pretty faithful representation of the graphic novel, no doubt due in part to Frank Miller's involvement in the production of the movie. Again, 300 is a great action movie adopted from a graphic novel, NOT an Oscar winning screenplay. Watch it for the right reason and it is not disappointing.

This movie was LAME... The story and acting were slow also boring, I fell asleep several times hoping the movie would be over each time I woke up. None of the Characters stood out, costumes and drawn backrounds were cool but the Good visuals couldn't save this movie for me... very disappointing.

Were we able to rate movies by dog biscuits instead of stars, I'd put this one at three or even four. Its origins as a graphic novel are visible everywhere, as is the movie- makers' ignorance of the Persian invasion of Greece in 480 BCE. If you really want to learn about what happened at Thermopylae, and to have the heroism of that last stand by Leonidas and his bodyguard of 300 send chills up your spine, you're much better off watching and buying the History Channel's "Last Stand of the 300." It's real history, and none the less moving because it is.

The fight scenes were well done if at times the slow mo made it look cool. So many familiar faces in this one. Had its share good moments and serious moments and other times where you couldn't take it seriously now and then. Interesting movie though. Visuals are really good.

Lots of effects, but that's about it
300 tells you a little about Spartans and how they are selected and trained as warriors. King Leonidas takes 300 of the best warriors to fight the Persians supposedly against the wishes of the Oracle.
There is no character arc and little story at all. It’s war with lots of visual and sound effects of slicing, dicing, and blood splatter. There were some scenes that I found disturbingly weird like the Persian king’s harem tent.
If you’re into movies for effects, you might like it. If you like movies for the characters and storyline, you probably won’t.

Pure Manliness
Sadly guys have to watch a movie that takes place thousands of years ago to find a true men
The Spartans were pure undiluted manliness. Each a warrior, a lover, and an avenger.
No man will ever tire of watching this. Spartans are entire army of Herulean fighters.
I never did come on here previously and review this, but I figure that in light of scoring the Complete Experience blue ray of this film, I would make a point of doing so now and share my opinion on this movie. I remember having first seen this in the theatre several years back. By the time it was over, I was simply in awe. The story and battle sequences in this movie were awesome, and the acting was formidable. For those of you not up on your history, this movie & graphic novel are based around an actual event in history. These people are real. 300 Spartans did stand up and hold their own against thousands of Persians...and they dealt quite a blow to that army before they were finally overcome. Obviously, if you watch this movie, it is fabricated and mythologized a little bit...more of a part fantasy/part reality reimagining of these events by Frank Miller...but that part of the movie is based around actual happenings. For all you haters out there dissing this movie because of that, lighten up...people are smart enough to know that some of this movie isn't factual, but it's still a ground breaking film and totally entertaining! My absolute favorite parts were the battle sequences that were in slow motion...totally cool...but the whole movie, for the most part, is awesome! My only one qualm with this movie was all the nudity & such within it...but it's a minor qualm at that. I'm not saying that Lena Headey or any other said women are not attractive at all...far from it. I just don't see the need for so much of that kind of content in movies. However, that aside, this is a truly spectacular movie...one of my favorite of the graphic novel to film adaptions that have hit the big screen. Totally worth while. It may not be for everyone, because not everyone probably likes a lot of bloody violence and what not, but if you're opposite of that kind of person and love a good, bloody action romp...this movie is for you!

A great action flick with all the right elements. Honor, integrity, the few standing up against the many. The only discordant note for myself was Frank Miller's lines of "freedom for all" and "democracy". These lines just sounded too forced for the situation.
Overall though, definitely something to watch on the biggest screen you can find.
Fantastic!!!!! Exhilarating! One of my favorites. A lot of blood, but they make it in such a way where it's not gross...

My husband asked me to purchase this movie for him. He's watched it at least 6 or 7 times. It's a real "guy" movie. I found it entertaining also, but mostly like it because of Gerard Butler.

Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback. Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.Well, I don't believe this movie was meant to be filmed in 3D, but as I watch it, I get the feeling that's what it is, even without those stupid glasses. I just love the visual effects of this film. The whole slow-motion, speed up to normal idea works incredibly well here. You would think it would get old real quick. Not so. King Leonidas(Gerard Butler), won me over in about 1.3 seconds, erring on the high side. I'm not usually a fan of films that have someone narrating the whole thing, but I wouldn't have wanted this one any other way. The fight scenes were outstanding, made you want to grab that paper towel roll and jump on in! Okay, maybe that wouldn't be so effective, but you get the idea. Sex? Some, but not overkill. Girls, men with 30 packs- I don't know how many sit-ups a human needs to do for those! All-in-all, it's a keeper!

Not since the movies of Victor Salva has a mainstream Hollywood picture been so homoerotic. This overtly gay film is an over the top satire of all those 60's Italian Hercules flicks. The subtext is so unsubtle that one expects the late Divine to be resurrected for a cameo. Camping it up with the Spartans is a visually lush and graphically violent experience. Ancient Greece has never been so FABULOUS!

I didn't think I'd enjoy this movie as much as I did, but, wow! Blood and guts aside, the battle scenes where like a well-choreographed ballet. The acting was superb. Can't wait for the DVD to come out.
