Movie Reviews of The 300 Spartans
Movie Review: 1.5 stars out of 4
Summary: 1 Stars
The Bottom Line:
Dull, slow, and seemingly interminable, The 300 Spartans is a leaden war film with awful battle scenes (watch the extras try to catch the spears to their chests to make it appear they were hit by them), campy acting and turgid direction; while the more recent 300 was no classic, it's certainly more entertaining than this stinker of a film.
Summary of The 300 Spartans
Studio: Tcfhe Release Date: 07/31/2007The futile yet inspiring stand of 300 Greek soldiers against the hugest army ever assembled in the ancient world inspired this typical example of Hollywood epic movie-making. King Leonidas of Sparta (Richard Egan, Demetrius and the Gladiators), prevented by political squabbling from sending his entire army to defend the narrow pass of Thermopylae, sets out with his personal bodyguard to fight off the ambitious Persian king, Xerxes. Along the way are a pair of young lovers, scantily clad dancing girls, and treachery though a secret mountain path. The 300 Spartans, made in 1961, has an overstated cold war subtext--there's much talk of freedom vs. slavery--and there are a few too many shots of armored men marching through the Greek countryside, but the historical conflict has a fundamentally stirring quality. Also featuring Sir Ralph Richardson (Dr. Zhivago, Dragonslayer) as a wily Athenian politician. --Bret Fetzer
