Spectacular comic-book style version of the 480 BC conflict between a small group of Spartans and the huge Persian army.

This is an amazing ancient history story about a spartan war where King Leonidas and a force of 300 men fight the Persians at Thermopylae in 480 B.C. I really liked this film because of the use of violence which was not over the top but was balanced very well. The story itself was very interesting as the plot revolves around King Leonidas (Gerard Butler), who leads 300 Spartans into battle against Persian "god-King" Xerxes (Rodrigo Santoro) and his army of more than 300,000 soldiers, which just makes you want to know what happens next and how will they survive or die. This had many amazing scenes like the world wide famous " This is sparta! " I really enjoyed the film and would recommend it to any, action and adventure lover.
