I loved it! I used to say GLADIATOR was my favorite film but I saw 300 the weekend that it opened and I was totally blown away! What an awesome movie! I was fascinated every minute! The script, the costumes and sets, the music, everything was just PERFECT!!!
I was most impressed by the action scenes, they were choreographed very nicely and looked pretty realistic. (OK, OK, the arterial spurt was wrong, there wasn't enough gushing blood and no sword, no matter how sharp, stays sharp long enough for you to hack that many people to death but let's overlook little details like that, OK?)
I own swords and I know it's not easy to swing those babies for long, you really have to be in good shape and these guys really looked it! Like real warriors not the weekend warrior type. I mean, you could believe that they'd been training as warriors since they were kids. I know people say it's all digitally enhanced but I don't care. It looked pretty real when it needed to look real.
OK, there was some gratuitous nudity (young "oracle" in flimsy gown, the Queen of Sparta flashing flesh, the king and queen in the bedchamber) to keep the young, testosterone laden men interested until the carnage but I guess that's only fair as we women were treated to the sight of all these buff guys in skimpy war outfits.
The bad guys were suitably bad, LOL! It cracks me up to see the people posting here at YA that are saying it's an anti-Iranian film or whatever. It's fiction for Pete's sake and it's a good story!! It was told from the viewpoint of a survivor, someone who came back to Sparta and told the story. Of course there will be embellishments!
Ah, but it wasn't just a good story, it was just a spectacular feast for the eyes in many respects and was very inspiring. It was a story about duty and loyalty, courage and honor. Who doesn't like that?
No question, 300 is the best movie of 2007 so far. I've seen several: WILD HOGS, 23, GHOST RIDER, CATCH & RELEASE, MUSIC & LYRICS.... um, some horror flick whose name I can't even remember now... in fact, several movies that I can't name now because they were so mundane but 300 is awesome! I'll buy it on DVD as soon as it comes out.

Take time to page through the Movies section of this Answer forum. You will find no less than 100 questions just like this, and the overwhelming response is that the movie as simply awesome. I read the graphic novel and saw the movie. It is just great. Be prepared for some CG blood and limb removal. It is the best movie since Departed came out.

I have been to the 300 twice now, and thought it was even better the second time. It is a very exciting and energetic action flick. The movie does have a lot of violence and gore (I'm not complaining) and also nudity. So if you're thinking about taking your kids you might want to see it first. All in all it was a very good movie and it even received two thumbs up from Ebert and Roeper.

It is a great movie! Number one 2 weeks in a row! It has great action it looks beautiful and it has half naked ripped sexy men! It is a good date movie, any woman would enjoy sitting and looking at that for 2 hours! Go see it, you won't be sorry!

The CGs were good, the battle scenes gory, but I thought the story and dialogue were lacking. I'd give it a 7/10

Most guys like it. Girls think the guys in the movie look good enough to watch it. If you go in expecting the best movie you have ever seen, then you won't like it. If you go in expecting great action and amazing special effects and to eat a lot of popcorn, then that is exactly what you will get. It's a great popcorn movie with lots of action, but it is not a good date movie.
