[b]Do Not Miss.[/b] '300' is based on Frank Miller's graphic novel of the same name, and while taking some artistic license, the story is based on the Battle of Thermopylae in 480 B.C. in Greece, between the Spartans and the Persians. Many of you (myself included) are...

300 is like Braveheart reading “Atlas Shrugged” in ancient Greece while gulping a tall café latte at Starbucks. Anachronisms aside, Zack Snyder artfully adapts Frank Miller’s graphic novel of the 480 B.C. Battle of Thermopylae where 300 Spartans, led by King Leonidas...

During my absense from blogging, I did write one article which is the review of 300. I watched it on the opening week but never finish the review. That was quite a while ago but since I haven't post a review in a while, what the hell, here it is... I saw 300 and IT....

300, the latest adaptation of a Frank Miller graphic novel, opens on such a dramatic, overwhelming note, most of your senses are shattered in the first ten minutes. But that’s OK, says UP Front, because the epic knob is turned to 11 for the entire film anyway… Most...

Last Sunday night I saw the film adaptation of Frank Miller’s graphic novel, 300. I haven’t read the novel, if you’re wondering, and had seen very little by way of previews, reviews or anything much to do with the film bar a smattering of comments made by the Internet...

The movie 300, which opened recently, is a dramatic retelling of the historic Battle of Thermopylae between 300 Spartans and the entire Persian army, numbering somewhere in the hundreds of thousands. Based on a graphic novel by Frank Miller and Lynn Varley, the movie...

THIS IS the second film about the battle in the pass at Thermopylae in August, 480 BC, when 300 Spartan troops led by their king Leonidas blocked the army of the Persian king Xerxes until a traitor showed a path to approach the Greeks from behind. In 1962 Italian...

"Spartans, ready your breakfast and eat hearty ... for tonight, we dine in hell," Spartan King Leonidas growls to his band of fiercely sculpted warriors. This and a dozen other rallying calls litter the film "300," Director Zack Snyder's interpretation of Frank...

What better R-rated cinematic fodder than the ancient Greek city-state of Sparta, a culture dedicated to the mastery of warfare and the maxim of “better to die than surrender”? The new period picture “300” examines the battle of Thermopylae, a famous last stand that...

Director: Zack Snyder (Dawn Of The Dead) Story: Based on Frank Miller's graphic novel, "300" concerns the 480 B.C. Battle of Thermopylae, where the King of Sparta led his army against the advancing Persians. What I Liked About it: * Visually, its one of the greatest...

Went to see 300 last night with Pop. It was good to spend some time with my old man - we don't do it often enough which is a cause of considerable guilt on my part. Dad and I share a similar interest in jingoistic epics like Gladiator et al, and I was tempted by some...

I just realized as I typed that title that you might be expecting now that this piece will be about who I would think would win in a fight, the 300 men of the Spartan army or Marky Mark Walhberg’s titular hero, Shooter. That isn’t what this is going to be at all...

Greek legend melds with the fantastical imagination of comic book writer Frank Miller as his epic novel comes ferociously to life in 300, a retelling of the ancient Battle of Thermopylae in which 300 valiant Spartan’s fought to the death against a massive Persian...

Right now, the title 300 refers to the number of sword-slingin', codpiece-sportin' Spartans who fought a behemoth horde of Persian invaders in the famous fifth century B.C. Battle of Thermopylae. In another couple of months, though, it could be a reference to the Zack...

Dad and I went to see 300 at the Carousel Grande in Greensboro this afternoon. I've been wanting to catch this ever since it came out a few weeks ago. It's adapted from Frank Miller's graphic novel 300, which is about the Battle of Thermopylae that took place in 480...

3 stars Call it the first ancient Greek snuff film. It's impossible to glean even a faintly serious message about parallels between our situation today facing a menacing, soon-to-be nuclear Iran from 300, the story of the battle of Thermopylae in 480 B.C.E., in which...

ASK an Iranian, and it's the politics of good versus evil that is all wrong. Ask an historian and they'll politely point out that the armies of Persia probably didn't include ninjas, giants and rampaging rhinos. Much of the debate about Zack Snyder's 300 has centred...
