Helpful Score: 1
A little slow in the beginning, bear with it, it soon becomes gripping. The battle scenes are gory, but there is much philosophy about what made the Spartans tick! Flash backs give glimpses into the background before the battle and depicts everyday life of key characters. Very good. Movie rights to this were sold before "300" was published and turned into a movie.
