Title: Good, entertaining corn
Review: 300 is like a giant, goofy video game, with silly history and far too much CGI for one motion picture. It feels like a giant comic book, which, I guess, was what it was supposed to be. Visual and shallow.The film starts out interesting enough with the rough warrior childhood details, then veers into some silliness with religious elders (who, in accordance with traditional Hollywood perception of religion, are all corrupt perverts), then gets into non-stop battle footage, with occasional lapses back to a disinteresting sub-plot in Sparta.The battle footage looks like non-stop video game cutscenes (and even the 300 video game, advertised at the beginning of the dvd, looked like scenes taken from the film.)The spartan warriors seem more like WWE stars that ancient warlords (are they wearing tights and a cape?)Just silly. Watchable, but silly.
Is the review positive or negative?
