Well if you want to look at child abuse (children getting beaten and tortured). Blood spraying like a fountain, heads flying like a soccer ball. All this stuff gets glorified as the Spartan culture.
Also, there is an attempt to glorify Sparta for preserving western civilization. On the contrary,
western civilization was saved by the destruction of Spartans by Thebans who defeated them. The glory of western civilization can be attributed to Athens whose democracy was actually destroyed by Sparta.
The most funny part is Leonidas character resembles Osama LOL and his behavior convinced be that he can be nothing else than an Osama. Also, the Spartans resembled Taliban.
Xerxes looked like an angry rap star. Plus there where certain species ,you cant call them human... even Charles Darwin will get seizures if he sees such creatures.

Thanks

I enjoyed reading the comics, and I hear that the film is very close to that (and a as result the dialogue is quite limited and comic style in approach). I have to say though that mostly I'm going to watch it to enjoy looking at some nicely muscled male bodies. Shallow, yes, but a girl has to have a treat sometimes.

I thought it was really good. Don't expect strict historical accuracy, though. The main points are accurate, but there is a lot of extra stuff thrown in. Of course, this particular movie was adapted from a graphic novel, so take that into account. But I thought the acting was good, for what it was, and the special effects were well done. But most of all? I loved the semi-naked men!

300 is an absolutely terrific movie. the attitude, the valour the spartans display send a chill down my spine. so much to keep their honour. they challenged and even demured a person who projected himself as god. i think they were bogged down by the wrong priests who just had no respect for these warriors. my personal favorite line in the movie when the king says : SPARTANS NEVER RETREAT!!!!!!!!!!. the greatest sequence when the king as a young lad fights the beast and also , when he kicks the intruder into the well..

well, i'd be happy to give you my review, but i don't think that you should rely on anyone's reviews to influence you to go see a movie, not even mine.
I liked the movie a lot, in fact i loved it so much, i'm gonna go see it again the day after, i loved it's game like feeling, it's dialogues, each and every scene is so beautiful, but there are also people who didn't like it or i should say didn't understand it.
And the whole persian thing, well, this is based on some history and in the end you have to remember it's just a movie, so need for anyone to be offended or affected by it. It's a beautiful movie meant to be enjoyed and that's what you should do.
But don't take my word for it, go see for yourself, you will be the best one to decide whether YOU like it or not.

It was great!
There are some gory scenes, but they're easy to deal with (we all know blood doesn't spurt from the neck 3 feet high when a man is decapitated, right?). It's perfect for taking a guy to, they'll love it. 2 hours never passed by so quickly!

Well i had seen this movie this is a real good one i have seen in the recent times as far the picturisation is concerned and the choosen actors who acted as the 300 soliders were so selctively chosen and their performance was extraordinary. Coming to the Lead role Gerard Butler(Leonidas the king) who led the 300 Spartans to wage a war against the Million warriors of persia was an excellent flick. that was worthy watching.
