In the fifth century B.C, at the Battle of Thermopylae, a brave band of
300 Spartans fought to the death against the massive Persian army of King
Xerxes. Seven centuries later, the epic graphic novel about the battle by
Frank Miller—whose hip, sexy comic Sin City was given
the full movie treatment two summers ago—has been brought to big-screen
glory in a stylish, computer-assisted wonder that holds the brave Spartans
up as defenders of Greece and the guardians of democracy. "300
is a feast for the senses (well, two of them anyway) and an impressive technical
achievement. More than that, it's a hell of a lot of fun." (Film Threat)
