Editorial Review: Product Description: The epic graphic novel by Frank Miller (Sin City) assaults the screen with the blood thunder and awe of its ferocious visual style faithfully recreated in an intense blend of live-action and CGI animation. Retelling the ancient Battle of Thermopylae it depicts the titanic clash in which King Leonidas (Gerard Butler) and 300 Spartans fought to the death against Xerxes (Rodrigo Santoro) and his massive Persian army. Experience history at swordpoint. And moviemaking with a cutting edge.Running Time: 116 min.System Requirements:Running Time: 116 Mins.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: ACTION/ADVENTURE Rating: R UPC: 085391162858 Manufacturer No: 116285 Amazon.com: Like Sin City before it, 300 brings Frank Miller and Lynn Varley's graphic novel vividly to life. Gerard Butler (Beowulf and Grendel, The Phantom of the Opera) radiates pure power and charisma as Leonidas, the Grecian king who leads 300 of his fellow Spartans (including David Wenham of The Lord of the Rings, Michael Fassbender, and Andrew Pleavin) into a battle against the overwhelming force of Persian invaders. Their only hope is to neutralize the numerical advantage by confronting the Persians, led by King Xerxes (Rodrigo Santoro), at the narrow strait of Thermopylae. More engaging than Troy, the tepid and somewhat similar epic of ancient Greece, 300 is also comparable to Sin City in that the actors were shot on green screen, then added to digitally created backgrounds. The effort pays off in a strikingly stylized look and huge, sweeping battle scenes. However, it's not as to-the-letter faithful to Miller's source material as Sin City was. The plot is the same, and many of the book's images are represented just about perfectly. But some extra material has been added, including new villains (who would be considered "bosses" if this were a video game, and it often feels like one) and a political subplot involving new characters and a significantly expanded role for the Queen of Sparta (Lena Headey). While this subplot by director Zack Snyder (Dawn of the Dead) and his fellow co-writers does break up the violence, most fans would probably dismiss it as filler if it didn't involve the sexy Headey. Other viewers, of course, will be turned off by the waves of spurting blood, flying body parts, and surging testosterone. (The six-pack abs are also relentless, and the movie has more and less nudity--more female, less male--than the graphic novel.) Still, as a representation of Miller's work and as an ancient-themed action flick with a modern edge, 300 delivers. --David Horiuchi Average Rating:
 Rating:  - SucksMan was I disappointed after purchasing this. A friend of mine talked me into watching this movie and since supposedly its visually stunning I decided to get it on BlurRay. Well, that was a big mistake. First of if you read the back of the cover it states that only portion of the movie is in High Definition - Translation I think there were only a hand full of scenes in HD the most of the movie was shot in standard definition. Second of all the movie it self SUCKS big time. Very simple, basic right ... Read More Rating: - This is Sparta? This movie was visualy amazing. Charactors and the sound track drew you in. The downfall was it heavily reminded me of the "Lord of the Rings" movies and "The Chronicles of Narnia" movie during the CGI fight scenes. I had this feeling of "I've scene this before". 300 had a new slow motion visual added to the fights which was interesting. 300 was also more violent. (loping off legs etc.) Some of the dark sceens appeared "grainy" on my plasma. I was disapointed in the video ... Read More Rating: - ??????????????Dear Sirs, Question! How can I adequately review a product that I ordered but never recieved? Rodney Kase Tyrone 10-6-2008 Rating: - Beautiful violenceI am not a lover of mindless or unnecessary violence but violence even worse than what is depicted in the movie actually did take place in history. War was a very gory thing in the past, a time when they did not have guns, bullets and cannons. War was more painful and bloody. Death wasn't instantaneous either. The most important thing to remember is that 300 is based more on Frank Miller's novel than historical facts. Using Special FX and computer graphics 300 shows warfare ... Read More Rating:  - The philosophical themes that make 300 one of the greatest movies ever made"300" Is One of The Greatest Films Ever Made Frank Miller's interpretation of the tale of 300 lone Spartan warriors fending off hordes of Persian invaders is hands down one the best films ever made. Though 300 takes some artistic license and contains historical inaccuracies, the purpose of good art is not to teach history but to convey important ideals and themes. 300 is unabashed in its representation of the highest ideals of man, of clear cut good and evil, of right and wrong, and of ...
