300

i must say that the movie has all the ingredients that appeals most guys la i guess. loads of violence, loads of blood, adequate measure of sex, and did i mention loads of violence?

the story revolves around the proud spartan nation fight against the persians in the Battle of Thermopylae. their king leonidas unbowing nature led him to bring 300 brave spartans to defend against an oncoming horde of thousands (might be more) of invading persians. inspired by the graphic novel by frank miller the story is fast paced and there was nary a moment where i felt bored. i was annoyed however by the couple sitting next to me though. the guy can't stop from having color commentaries on the action on screen. "nak bercakap balik rumah tengok dvd aa"

watching the sequence of events unfolding, u can't help but feel for the spartans. their attempts at overcoming insurmountable odds seemed doomed from the start but they did gave their all. gerard butler's leonidas was defiant till the end. other supporting casts also brought character and flavour to the movie.

overall.. i give it a 9/10. hehe but that's because i love these kind of movies. hehe. go watch it before the censors snip more scenes from it.
