I finally rented the movie I knew would be crap, and guess what...It was basically crap. Told you guys.

It is the most cliche movie ever.... For one, the stupid scenes with the retarded girl yelling in some made up language is just insanely stupid. It sucked in Lord of the Rings and every other fantasy movie, and it was stupid in 300.

Also the stupid "Let's play really loud music while this guy rides a horse, and then switch to a scene with some ambient noise like a crackling fire or running water" thing is overdone and always stupid. It happened in 300 twice.

The ending was even more cliche...Girl in open field while the stupid girl screaming music plays....WTF...Isn't that basically how Gladiator and every other movie ended?

The dialogue was written by a five year old.....

The action stuff was okay, but the movie flat out sucked.

You watched this movie under the wrong circumstances. You should've watched it in the theaters expecting nothing but an adrenaline rush. People don't watch movies like 300 for friggin plot. You watch this kind of movie for cool action and senseless violence, which is cool on a big screen.

I disagree. It was a story of courage, honor, politics, and most importantly, had some kick ass fight scenes.

This movie is meant for entertainment, not for someone to think of it as a deep movie. That's how I saw it as. I mean it was good to watch for fun, but I wouldn't call it one of the best of all time.

It definately had an amazing visual aspect, but I didn't find much else appealing in it. Seemed to deviate from the true story, and more for a shocking adreneline rush.

The girl speaking in a foreign language is historically accurate (except, historically she would be old). The Spartans literally left their fate to an old woman who got high and spat out orders "from the gods."

I am in the minority of people I know who have seen the movie, because I think it was a piece of crap. Most people I know liked it, but I have a few friends with good taste in movies, who thought it was garbage and overly hyped.

I like it when people bash movies that most people enjoy just to be different.

Oh and I'm not even trying to argue that this movie was supposed to have some thick moral fiber in it or a deeply intellectual plot, the movie was intended for you to lean over to a friend while you are watching it and say, "Wow "Insert friends name here" that was awesome!".

300 was awesome just cause of the fight scenes, theres nothing more to it. As for complaining about the plot you do know it was based on a historical event. They took liberties with the plot but other than that they had to follow what history stated.

Couldn't disagree more. Fantastic direction with a nice comic look kind of twist. A lot of the scenes were shot the way they were to look cool. To get more people to like the movie. Not to be historically correct.

I agree, 300 was awful. All the stupid, slow-motion fight scenes started to get boring and it felt like a Japanese martial arts movie.

Anyways, if I do something not planning on liking it, usually I find things that I don't like about it rather than just taking it as-is. Not being bias is cool man. It's usefulness is expansive.

I thought the movie was boring to be honest, wasn't intrested in the plot nor the characters. The CGI is cool to look at though. In fact, i couldn't finish the movie due to its boringness My friend said it was the best movie ever. I think he is crazy
