how could it be average? the special effects were some of the best i've seen. The acting was great. The story line is incredible...its a 10/10 for me easily
-
Yeah the movie looks great no doubt. The cinematography, visual effects, etc are top notch but everything else is average. There was hardly any acting in this movie. It was just people saying their lines, acting is noticeable once we see character development there's none of that in 300. It's a great movie to enjoy a beer with though. I was actually much more interested in the storyline to God of War.

I just downloaded the bittorrent lol

I just downloaded the bittorrent lol
hows the quality?

Javi and Luke watch way to many movies.

Just saw the movie on the DLP thingy screen and i have to say. THis movie is by far the best movie i have seen in my life. the way it touched people and reminded people of what life is really about.
-
Watch BIG, its well better
-
Javi and Luke watch way to many movies.
What's wrong with watching movies? in the last month i've seen...3 movies? 300, ghost rider, and the number 23...
i don't think thats too many. in fact...i don't think thats enough.
-
good movie, special effects were sick
-
Went to see it friday night , really enjoyed it,highly recommended,excellent effects and awesome battle scenes, the plot was pretty weak but it was still a really good movie
-
Saw it today. The action was pretty awesome, the dialogue wasn't so hot though
-
i have my tickets for it tomorrow, on IMAX ;D ;D
if only it were in HD too..
Some are being shown in digital projection with DLP
-
fuck the dialogue nigga go see a woody allen movie if you want dialogue, this was pure testosterone mixed with blood screams and dirt and i liked it.
-
Now that's what i'm talking about. ;D
-

how can you say the plot was weak?
first of all...its a true story. its a little historically inaccurate...but 300 spartans fighting for their freedom against millions of persians...thats a damn good plot...even if it wasn't true

shit is based off a fuckin comic book lol...even though thats somewhat based on a true events
I have the comic book and the movie DOES not have the same feeling you get with the book. You can tell there was a lot of new scenes....i guess they needed to make the movie longer...when they shouldd'nt of and stuck with the damn comic book
in the the book the Spartans were more badass and heartless...in the movie they were kind of made to seem more human than some fighting machines...also the King was too much of a pussy with too much feelings.
-
I wanna see this shit
-
I saw it on Saturday morning.
It was and is a Man's movie. In the way that its about Honor and few standing against many,no matter what the odds are. Standing up and being counted.

The movie had more political motivation. For example, the scene with the queen speaking in front of the counsel.... they might as well have played "yvan eht nioj" in the background. That's in addition to the difference in portrayal of the two sides... which was very inaccurate... but then again, it IS based off a comic.

yeah you're right but mothafuckaz always want a fucking oscar type complicated plot with inspired actors play and deep histories and shit they never happy after that cuz they say 6 hours is too long for the movies, then when it's intense simple and short they still not happy

Lol. Yeah. I bet these actors don't know what those movies are about as they read their fuckin' scripts. Fuck the actors. ;D
-
i finally saw the movie and i must say it was fucking tight.There were no big name actors but they all played their roles well.The Special Effects were fucking sick and the blood shed in the movie was cool too.I would recomend this movie to anyone that really likes action movie cause there is a shit load of it.
-
just saw the movie... it was ok.. nothing specieal about it
-
Saw this at the London IMAX earlier today, the size of the screen obviously helped, but I was so drawn into the film as if I was a part of it. Story wise its pretty standard underdog battling for honour against the bigger conquerers, but visually and stylistically the film really is a treat, treating the Frank Miller novel in a similar way to Sim City but whilst also managing to keep it's own identity.
Some of the decapitations are awesome too, just look so realistic (not that I've ever seen one in real life!). Some great imagery throughout, especially one scene which has loads of incredibly attractive half naked women girating, intersperced with images of some deformed hunchback walking through the room. That and the harpsicord playing donkey head were the visual highlights for me.
Definitely a film that is worth seeing, just don't expect the plot to blow you away, although the visuals certainly will.
-
tight ass film... really good special effects but nothing really amazing...
saving private ryan is still the best movie in my eyes... perfect blend of action, direction, special effects, and plot

I went to see "300" last night...man, definitely worth the money. It's been a while since I last seen a good action movie.
All of a sudden, somewhere half throughout the movie the speakers fell out - in the middle of a batte-scene btw! - and there was this guy in the back of the cinema who yelled "THIS IS MADNESS!" (referring to the sound system falling out, obviously), and I just knew that someone would yell back "NO...THIS IS SPARTA!", lol, and sure enough...this guy who was sitting in the row behind me gave that reply.
Anyway, that just shows you how everone liked the movie. There was a chill-atmosphere in the cinema...of course it's fucked up as hell that the sound falls out during such a scene, but we were all enjoying the film so much that most of us were like "ah well, this shit's so good we might as well enjoy ourselves". Then people started translating the subtitles out loud as well. LOL...funny shit really.
Luckily, the problem was fixed after 2 minutes though. So yeah: great movie!
-
I downloaded the DVD screener a couple days ago and watched it yesterday, it was good but didn't live up to the hype. I wish they'd do a tv series like this or like sin city that would be sick.
-
My god, what a terribly fucked up movie! I pity myself for having spent 6.5 euros on that junk. First of all, the movie presents NOTHING new, throughout the whole time i was thinking to myself, i've seen all this shit before. Sure, the graphics were pretty cool, but everything else was done on a very below-average level. Needless to say, the portrayal of the Persians is ridiculously inaccurate. Fuck the guys who made "300" and Fuck the guy who came up with the comic book... Frank something... Fuck him for thinking everyone's retarded and needs a narrative voice in the background to explain what's going on. This movie is for like 11 year olds

What exactly were you expecting? Anyone that criticizes a film like this is retarded. It's a war time film. It's Rambo 2007. It was made as an action film and a propaganda piece. There's nothing else to it. The comic's a bit different but the film served it's purpose. it's mindless violent fun and a way to feel a little better about being an American. Anyone that was expecting an accurate detailed epic about and ancient war and the politics behind it should be ashamed of themselves. The accurate part is impossible. Ask 10 different people what the Vietnam war was over and you'll get 10 different answers, and that was a recent war. We can't even say for sure that there was a persian/greek war, much less how it went down. Just go grab your old VHS tapes of Rambo; First Blood 2, Delta Force, and Conan the Barbarian, and this film will feel a lot better after watching those films. Because then you'll understand what it was and what it was meant to be. Bashing a film like this is like bashing Mr. Rogers Neighbourhood or Sesame Street. It's a waste of time and makes you look silly. The word Oscar never came up in the writing or filming of this film. People should save their criticisms for bad films that pretend to be good films, like Alexander, or Crash.

You shouldn't argue with this dude beacause his favorite movie is a story about a young irano-serbo-french gay nerd student who struggle to pass his oriental phylosophical course and at the same time he has an intimate relation with his communist german teacher. It's obvious he don't share the same interset in action movies.

What film is this?
-
^^
Probably an accurate description of the next Sundance Film Festival winner ;D
300 wasn't really my type of film, it's certainly not the sort of thing that needs a second viewing but its a good mindless action film which just happens to have had a really interesting visual style attached to it. Its very much style over substance, but its still an enjoyable watch and does include a few little dark comedic moments along the way which is always good.
-
just saw this, everything was great, the gore, action, visuals, except it was propaganda, the whole white power/send more troops to Iraq/be afraqid of AlQaed subliminal politics behind the plot.

The propaganda is what makes it so great. That's what made all those Reagan era films so great. If Stallone, Arnie, Norris, and Seagal weren't using their mindless action flicks to bash left wing liberal nuts then those films wouldn't be half as funny. Anyone that doesn't see the propaganda in this film would vote to send more troops anyway, but anyone that does see the propaganda gets a whole new element of the film to find enjoyable. With out propaganda this is just a shallow film with great effects. The propaganda gives it depth.
-
This film was really homoerotic.

Why, wasn't the message of the film that few will be remembered and that their deaths are honorable and better than them living on a regular life? So why sending more troops, to spoil that joy? :D

Most of those sixpacks where probably made out of plastic n cgi n shit.

The best/tha realest war films are anti-war films, no self-respecting war film glorifies war/portrays a love of war.
An army exists to defend or attack, or keep security,etc and the reason for these reasons is peace, therefore an army exists for peace, not war itself.
But I seen it twice, the second time was better cus once you ignore the politics and switch off tha mind, its a great movie.
-
well i seen it twice, and i'm gonna see it again.. it's such a good blazin flick.

I don't think anyone is saying that 300 is going down in history as one of the great war films. As for your theory about anti-war films being the best; Patton was a phenomenall film, no battle field scenes, but a very pro-war film, and very great film.
