Review: 300


300 Spartans led by King Leonidas (Gerard Butler) battle with the massive Persian army. Based on Frank Miller's graphic novel.

Visually stunning, great soundtrack, lots of decapitations. Would have been fine with less nudity, but, whatever, it's not my movie. I enjoyed how the story not only focused on the battle but also the fight back home by the Queen to have the Spartan council send more troops.

Is it bizarre that I wanted to see this movie but my husband did not? I mean it's a "guy" movie with war and blood, etc. I went and saw it with my brother so I wasn't some freak girl who went alone. ;)

My favorite parts of the movie:

the battle sequences
the soundtrack
the Queen fighting at Sparta

4 out of 5 stars.
