I came into this film highly skeptical, i had heard great things from my friends, but my friends arnt the best at giving advice. But they where actually pretty right on this one. This movie proved very entertaining and actually a pretty well rounded movie. The movie is based off of a comic book retelling the story of the Greek battle of Thermopolye. If you are going to see this based on historical correctness don't come then, their are multiple problems with the movie in that sense. What impresses me about the movie, is the creativity in the special effects and battle sequences. The fighting which is most of what the movie is, is well crafted. The acting leaves something to be desired but it is decent enough to make it a good movie. Gerard Butler gives a great performance and stands out from the other actors in the film. All in all a good 7 out of 10.
