It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

Good structure, decent performances and some great action sequences I was slightly surprised. Sure it's really nothing more than a mindless popcorn action flick but in many ways it's a pleasant shock. Cemented in pop culture history for its iconic 'this is' scene it's worth a watch if you get the chance

As usual I did no research and read no reviews before seeing 300, and so went into it with few expectations. For the first few minutes I wasn't quite sure what I was watching. It wasn't 'animation' but then again it didn't look like regular film, it was definitely enhanced and manipulated to give it an appearance unlike anything I'd seen before. I was curious to see more. However, after I'd adapted to these new visuals I was more available to focus on the story, script, and what was actually going on. That's where the trouble began. This film seems to be stuck in one gear - very high. Every scene was like yet another climax. It was unrelenting and before soon lost it's impact and power to excite. Also, the script wasn't so much dialogue as much as it was profound statements, rally cries, epic speeches meant to inspire and awe, and that was basically it. It seems this film was meant to awe and inspire the audience through its visuals only, but for me I need a supporting story and characters who, love them or hate them, I need to feel something for them. 300 is interesting to look at, but has nothing else going for it.

When I first saw this movie, on DVD, a few years ago it was 'competing' with two other movies on the same subject. At the time I didn't think 300 was the best of the three. I was so wrong. It's become a real favourite! For sure its a bit of romp with its steam puck monsters, etc., and its historical accuracy very debatable but does it say something about Hunan nature?

If you don't like this movie...you should go see a Spartan about a cliff.
