Brash, violent and oozing testosterone profusely out of its pores, there’s little wonder Zack Snyder’s film is championed by meatheads around the world. Based on Frank Miller’s graphic novel, this retelling of the Battle of Thermopylae is less Gladiator, more Dynasty Warriors, meaning it is ultimately a string of action sequences held together by an undemanding set-up, never mind plot. Hefty Spartan themes such as honour and sacrifice are tragically wasted, as Snyder is too busy playing around with the slow motion button to tedious effect. It may have coined that catchphrase, but 300 is nowhere near the modern classic some will have you believe. THIS... IS... RUBBISH!!
1/5
