*300* Movie Review *No Spoilers*

[Homer]

I thought it was a decent action movie. The plot was very basic, but I didn't expect anything too involved. I thought it was about 10 minutes too long. I wanted it was going to end after a certain scene, which I guess I won't mention since it would be a spoiler.

I just recently read the graphic novel and I thought Snyder did an excellent job porting it to the big screen. Only complaint is that in some scenes the music was appropriate but in others it didn't fit as well as it should. Most people who enjoyed Sin City should find this to be a fun watch.

My friend said the plot sucked. Typical hollywood: all flash, no substance. Plz confirm.

This was like a direct translation of a graphic novel. The director did a great job keeping to the story, going so far as to change very little in mono/dialogue.

I really enjoyed the movie.

I really enjoyed it, but im really into greek history and then the fight scenes were awesome

I didn't really like this movie as much as I would have hoped. The plot wasn't that good and there were not enough personal relationships with the characters. The dialogue was also horrible. I did enjoy the fighting scenes though

it was ok =/

I expected a lot more, and this was even after the rating on rotten tomatoes dropped to 60%.... BLEH

it was still entertaining and worth seeing

Haven't seen it yet...

But if you're responding, could you say if you saw on IMAX or regular?

[Prodigy54321]

just saw it

3 stars from me

I thought it looked very good, as I was expecting from the trailers

story line was pretty weak..although I didn't expect much since the story it is supposed to tell is pretty simple...I would have appreciated a little more being expanded upon in the beginning, but that may have made it worse because of my only big problem with the movie...

that is..acting..everyone other than the main guy was pretty bad..and even he was not great..it didn't destroy the movie for me though..

so I would recommend going to see it..just for the look and "feel" of the battle scenes and other cool images...oh and leonidas' yells (the ones shown in the trailer.."This is Sparta, etc)

I liked it too, but i will agree slowing down every single shot got a little silly. Oh and the scene with the ships crashing and the rock music really silly.

I didn't think the "slowing down" was excessive at all..at least, it didn't bother me.

yeah the ships crashing was pretty random

It is trash, and not entertaining.

I am pretty sure Dynamic cannot be talking about 300. The storyline was the opposite of good.
Acting and characters are all uninteresting. Plot is cliche and uninteresting. It was like watching cutscenes for an action video game. It would have been well done if thats what it had been. Even the action sequences seemed very repetitive to me.

I really enjoyed Sin City too.
