300 Rated: R Graphic Battle Sequences.....Lots of Digital Death! Some Hot, Steamy Lovin'. Lots of Chiseled Pecs, Washboard Abs and Bare Breasts. Danny has fallen in Love with Lena Headey.....she is one Super Hot, Super Tough Babe! This movie is about Greeks and Persians.....and yet they mysteriously have slight Scottish and English accents. Very Important: A Sense of Humor is for Maximum Enjoyment of Danny's Movie Reviews! If you need to understand why, go to my Movie Guide Home Page.

Sure all the guys are Almost Naked.....and their Bulging Biceps, Triceps, Quads and Pectorals make Danny feel Fat and Lazy by Comparison.
But I forgive them because in this Action-Adventure Movie....The MEN Act Like MEN!
They Don't Act Like Sniveling Cry Babies!
The Persians came looking to take what didn't belong to them by force and the Spartans were like, "I Don't Think So!"
300 is a movie adaptation of the great graphic novel by the Great Frank Miller.
The same Frank Miller who wrote the graphic novels that the Sin City movies are based on.
The same Frank Miller who single handedly re-invented Batman in the 1980's with Batman: The Dark Knight Returns.
The same Frank Miller who commands more respect from Danny than most celebrities, politicians and athletes COMBINED!
Yeah....THAT Frank Miller!

This is obvious NOT an Historically Accurate Movie.
As Frank Miller himself says in one of the DVD extras: His purpose is to tell a Great Story.....not give a History Lesson!
Frank Miller's idea of a great story is to have rampaging Rhinos and Elephants as part of the invading Persian Army.
In case you haven't figured it out yet, the Persians did NOT have any rampaging Rhinos and Elephants in their army.
But almost everything in 300 is a exaggerated form of actual events according to the Historians interviewed on the Two-Disc Special Edition DVD.

He did this to safe guard his family and his country.
The last time I saw Gerard Butler was in The Phantom of the Opera.....if the opening credits hadn't listed Gerard Butler as the star, I wouldn't have recognized him.
Gerard Butler got into Tremendous Shape for the role of King Leonidas of Sparta.
Hell.....Everyone in this Action-Adventure Movie is in Tremendous Shape!
In an issue of Men's Health Magazine, Gerard Butler said that his workout regimen was VERY Intense.
If you want to see the Brutal Workout that Gerard Butler had to go through, go to Men's Health! (new window) |

Do you have any idea how long I've waited for a Movie Like This?!?
It's a very simple story....no complicated plot.
Xerxes of Persia leads an army of a million men....plus a few freaky prostitutes....to Sparta to rape and pillage their country.
The only thing Xerxes asks in return for NOT taking over all of Greece is for Leonidas to knee before him and declare him to be his new GOD!
And basically Leonidas tells Xerxes to, "Kiss the Pimples on his Ass!"
After that, all Fuckin' Hell Breaks Loose!
300 is Bloody Good Entertainment!
Great Special Effects....sometimes I felt that there was too much special effects.
At times the special effects is a distraction from the main story....the bulk of the effects are during the Fighting Sequences.
But it didn't bother me that much....after all, this movie isn't trying to be the next Citizen Kane, Gone With The Wind or Casablanca!
And 300 is following the example set by another movie inspired by Frank Miller....Sin City! Lots of CGI environments were created for that movie also.
Remember that both 300 and Sin City were originally Graphic Novel Comic Books! These movies are just trying to stay true to their sources.

All these protesters are trying to do is get free publicity for their own causes by using the Popularity of this Movie.
The protesters said everything from:
This Movie Promoted Fighting and Celebrated War
To
This Movie Misrepresented Persians!

Of course, it didn't work.....cause this Movie just resonated with people like me who don't care about all of the Bullshit that these Protesters and Activists care about.
Danny's Advice: Protesters and Activists are a Pack of Assholes who do Absolutely NOTHING except try to tell YOU and ME how we should Live Our Lives!
Be sure to do what these Pricks DON'T want you to do....Think for Yourself!
Go and See whatever Movie You want to see....after all, it is YOUR MONEY!

We love strong characters who will not Run Away from a Fight!
We have had enough of the Girlie-Men on the Big Screen!
The Message of 300 is said best by Queen Gorgo, played by the Extremely HOT Lena Headey:
"Freedom is not free. It comes with the highest of sacrifices....The price of blood."
Speaking of Lena Headey.....She has a VERY HOT SEX SCENE! 
And she has a GREAT Revenge Scene too!
Danny Loves Revenge!
Lena Headey is also playing the role of Sarah Conner in the TV series Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles
Don't Miss 300.....it is Excellent Entertainment!

Queen Gorgo: Because only Spartan women give birth to real men.
Daxos: Glory? Have you gone mad? There is no glory to be had now! Only retreat, or surrender or death!
King Leonidas: Well, that's an easy choice for us, Arcadian! Spartans never retreat! Spartans never surrender! Go spread the word. Let every Greek assembled know the truth of this. Let each among them search his own soul. And while you're at it, search your own.
Queen Gorgo: It is not a question of what a Spartan citizen should do, nor a husband, nor a king. Instead, ask yourself, my dearest love, what would a free man do?
King Leonidas: Dilios, I trust that "scratch" hasn't made you useless.
Dilios: Hardly, my lord, it's just an eye. The gods saw fit to grace me with a spare.
