Every now and then I come out of my Mel induced fan frenzy to comment on other things. The movie 300 is one of those times. It is a great movie, beautiful to look at, the acting is out standing. It will make you laugh, make you cry. You'll want to stand up and cheer out loud. It makes you want to be a Spartan.
One reviewer called it the poor mans Braveheart, at first I took offense, (as I tend to do when people talk about Mel. A lot of bad press can make a fan paranoid) then I saw the movie and I understood what he was saying. 300 is darker, dirtier, and yes even bloodier than Braveheart, but it will not win an Oscar unless the Academy is taken over by Quentin Tarantino. Both movies however will give you the same feeling, fight for something, fight with pride, die with pride and be proud of what you achieved and the legacy that you will leave behind.
Remember the 300.
