300 (Review)

What can I say about it? There is so much celebration and many claims it as a really good war movie in ages. But this is an adaptation of Frank Miller and thus so apart from the gore and good cinematic I have to say everything else was just so.

I am not down writing this movie, in fact there are many lines from the script that no doubt will be re-used and quoted for many years to come. But again it is not a perfect movie. One has to enter the cinema with the correct perception and not take things seriously. Because from history the Persian army is great but not that freaky.



There is so much fantasy that the story line simply evolves around perfect war strategies and lacks the human touch in some ways. For instance if they can explain the whole feeling when the young Leonidas was about to kill the wolf why not also include his linage of family? Tell who was his father and mother and explain a bit about the role of woman in Spartan Society. Now that would be interesting.


For what the movie is suppose to stand for, it is good. But as I text my friend immediately after the movie "Its Good but not Great" pretty much says it all. My rating would be 4 over 5 just for the lack of script and the over use of one liners.
