I loved this movie! Having never read the graphic novel version, I went into this movie with the knowledge I did have of the battle of Thermopalae... or however the **** you spell it... and what i I had read and heard about this movie in Fango and stuff and from people who saw it. I was expecting a 'comic book adaption' , which is fine with me, but they went a little over-the-top with the giant, armor-plated rhino and the giant elephants and the giant PERSIANS ! Other than that, though, this movie rocked! It is a GREAT, and somewhat TRUE, story of WARRIORS who stood their ground against overwhelming odds. I can somewhat relate to this - but enough of that - If you are a warrior at heart then this movie will make you stand up and pump your fist in the air and go "YAAH!"
If you liked "The 13th Warrior" or "The Magnificent 7" or "The Wild Bunch" or "The Warriors" or "Enter The Dragon" or "The Alamo" , then you will love this one....
