Truly worth the money to go see Thumbs Up

Really good movie, great action scenes some of them really get you hyped up. You know how its gonna end but you really don't want it to.

Worth the watch people.

Bruce Willis, yes.

And The backgrounds where. They wanted to stick with the Frank Miller feel. It is after all based on his graphic novel (thats posh talk for comic book)

Let's give Frank Miller his due: he's the cartoonist who tamed Hollywood. While the work of revered writers like Alan Moore is routinely shredded on film, Miller's high-contrast style arrives almost untouched, first in Sin City and now in 300, a bloody, hugely entertaining take on the Battle of Thermopylae. This is the story of 300 Spartans, led by Gerard Butler's King Leonidas, who took on a million invading Persians with nothing more than spears, shields and excellent muscle tone.

It's refreshing, having sat through innumerable movies about the horrors of conflict, to find one that genuinely thinks war is ace. In the hands of director Zack Snyder (Dawn Of The Dead), 300 is a hurricane blast of epic energy - two solid hours of big, beefy men stabbing each other and yelling "RAAAAARGH!" as loud as they can. It's a film written entirely in capital letters, shot with a visual flair that rivals Zhang Yimou in a palette so stylised that it might as well be animation. Like Sin City, 300 is all about the look - and like Sin City, it has the moral sophistication of a lynch mob. The glorificaton of the body, the dehumanised enemy, the sheer relentless carnage presented as poetry and ballet - 300 is almost fascistic in its devotion to war and heroism.

300 is a valentine to violence, hilariously macho and eye-poppingly homo-erotic. It's also the best thing that Gerard Butler has ever done. Resplendent in his scarlet robe and sixpack, sporting a beard like a furry popcorn tub, Butler's warrior king brings both a sense of humour and a brooding intelligence to the slaughter. He's well supported by Lena Headey as his queen, who is thanklessly stuck at home to fend off Dominic West's slime-coated politician.

"A VALENTINE TO VIOLENCE"

300 is not a complicated film. It's going to be widely ridiculed and rightly so, because viewed with the slightest critical distance it becomes extremely funny, but taken on it's own terms - as Greek myth meets Looney Tunes - it's kind of a masterpiece.

300 is released in UK cinemas on Friday 23rd March 2007

It's a fucking comic book.
And the sooner Hollywood stops having an emormous wankfest over these overblown pieces of shit, the better.

Calm down......anything that isn't epic, American and Hollywood isn't worth seeing on a huge screen anyway.
So before you start ranting on about how good alternative film is, and how we all miss the good films of world cinema, listing a load of films most of us haven't seen before and probably don't want to, this 300 film is a bit of fun.

A comic book just like Spider man, Xmen and Punisher, if you don't like the genre, then shut the fuck up.

So what would you recommend I go see that isn’t blockbuster and epic on the big screen?
Makes perfect sense to me, watching ‘Dodge ball’ at the cinema is pointless IMO.

I could ask you the same question. Lol

I made a point by saying that you can’t just say it’s all shite from Hollywood, if it’s not your thing, and you don’t ‘get it’, then why bother.

Nothing wrong with comics, just hate people calling them 'graphic novels' as if this instantly transforms them into some sort of high art form.
It's not really about 'getting it', either. I like Hollywood. I'm just bored of dark, gothy, pretentious bullshit.
Hollywood films are about stuff exploding for no reason, bad acting, frivolous plotlines and product insertion in every corner of the film, not high contrast and stupid camera angles.

Thats bullshit. Films like Crash, Forest Gump, Pay it Forward, One Flew over the Cuckoo Nest, Donnie Darko, Seven, the Goonies, As Good as it Gets ( the list is endless) all are,IMO , masterpieces of hollywood cinema and hold a special place in many peoples hearts.

Yes Hollywood does produce drivel, mainstream manufactuered flicks for the masses but they also produce some of the best films in the world. To just tar the entire industry as some low level, dumb beast that only panders to a low brow mainstream audience is bullshite.
