300


The Spartan King is set to save his people. In spite of Oracle’s denial, they set off for the war with just 300 men. They are then accompanied by a small army. These 300 brave warriors fight against enemies which outnumbers them in quantity. These Spartans are shown to be very courageous and brave.

This kind of movie is what I love watching. The feel that this movie brings in me is indefinable. There are some scenes which are not to its best like when the King goes to visit the wizards to the top of a cliff; I found it a bit dull. The rope work hasn’t been done in a proper way and the cinematic feel diverts at that point.

The rest of the war scenes are very good. The part which I liked best was the one when they are attacked by their enemies from quite a distance; the arrows approach them like rain drops. The huge beast which the enemies bring with them to win the battle, the gigantic elephants, large walls of corpses etc. are good to watch. Another good aspect of this movie for me is the background music score. I am not sure which bands performed those sound tracks, but that’s what I like.

All in all this is one my favorite in my list.
After this movie, the one that I wait so desperately is the one called 10,000 BC.
