Who is the director of the movie 300?
The epic graphic novel by Frank Miller (Sin City) assaults the screen with blood, thunder and awe. “300” is a ferocious retelling of the ancient Battle of Thermopylae in which King Leonidas (Gerard Butler) and 300 Spartans fought to the death against Xerxes and his massive Persian army.
Is the movie 300 a good or bad movie?
So full of slo-mo CGI, bloodless flying blood, and grotesque men and beasts, 300 plays like a grisly animated feature. Silly beyond bounds, with a total lack of historicity, this is a really bad movie. Poor Gerard Butler! Could not finish.
Where are the Hot Gates in the movie 300?
Thermopylae or the Hot Gates was a pass in the mountains where a small force could hold up a much large number of opponents. 300 was a great war movie full of CGI enhanced action but with an Orientalist point of view.
Is the movie 300 based on a graphic novel?
300, based on Frank Miller’s graphic novel, is kind of ridiculous. It’s completely over-the-top. It seems like an homage to masculinity. And yet, as much as I want to laugh at it and dismiss it as stupid fun (which is easily done with the sequel, Rise of an Empire), this is actually an excellent film with some amount of depth to it.

What happens at the end of the movie 300?
The movie involves a legendary last stand by 300 death-obsessed Spartans against a teeming horde of Persians. So brave and strong are the Spartans that they skewer, eviscerate, behead and otherwise inconvenience tens of thousands of Persians before finally falling to the weight of overwhelming numbers.
