| Movie description |
Based on the graphic novel by Frank Miller and Lynn Varley, 300 takes
over the screen like an invading horde. With all the gushing blood of
a horror movie and the scope of a classic epic, the second film from
Zack Snyder (who helmed the 2004 remake of DAWN OF THE DEAD) is an
impressive visual spectacle. Gerard Butler (THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA)
plays Leonidas, the king of ancient Sparta. The city is famous for its
warrior philosophy, and Leonidas won’t kneel to the demands of
Persia`s King Xerxes (LOST`s Rodrigo Santoro). Instead, Leonidas leads
his 300-strong army against Xerxes`s army of millions. Meanwhile, his
wife (Lena Headley, THE BROTHERS GRIMM) campaigns in Sparta for the
city to send reinforcements as she butts heads with the treacherous
Theron (Dominic West, THE WIRE). With its gore and scale, 300 marks
director Snyder as a possible successor to Peter Jackson`s throne.
Jackson also got his start in horror with BAD TASTE and DEAD ALIVE,
and the two men share a penchant for ambitious battle scenes. The huge
fights in 300 rival Jackson`s efforts in the LORD OF THE RINGS films.
David Wenham, who starred in two of the Tolkien-based films, plays
Dilios, one of the Spartan soldiers. Though the cast doesn`t boast any
A-list stars, the actors ably fill their larger-than-life roles. In a
film filled with men, Headley stands out as Queen Gorgo. She matches
her warrior husband in strength, while showing love toward Leonidas
and their son. Though there are scenes that demonstrate the humanity
of the characters, 300 is undeniably about bravery and blood, and it
succeeds because of the stylish depictions of both.
