Has anyone seen the movie? Comments?

Yeah, I saw it Sunday. Obviously a thin propaganda attempt relating to today. I think the word "freedom" was mentioned only two times less than in the "Braveheart" and "The Patriot"- which is funny because Sparta was perhaps the first (and still the harshest as far as I am concerned) totalitarian state in the history of mankind. I guess what Leonides (the Spartan King) ment by "freedom" was the freedom to continue horrific institutionalized pedophilia and subsist on the backs of your helot slaves whom were terrified into submission by constant beatings and subject to random execution by Spartan teenagers "practicing" to get used to killing by stalking and butchering slaves in the fields (this was the Spartan equivelent of youthful hijinks- brutally murdering slaves.)

Of course- it is really hard how anyone could see the West as besieged Greece and Iran as the evil Persians of Xeres today in that movie.

But never minding the politics- it was a good looking film- at least interesting. But it really failed to move me at all. They didn't build up any character except Leonides. It didn't have a lasting impact. I also recently saw Apocolypto and that had more resonance than "300". Overall it wasn't a bad film- but I wouldn't run out and see it. It is, at best, a rental.
