The movie was good, however I think it wasn't great. I would even go as far as to say that it is not as good as Sin City, the movie it has splattered across the posters and commercials saying that it's from the creator of. Splattered is a good word, as the amount of blood sent splattering across the screen could turn the ocean red. Yet, the violence, seemed to be comic book in nature, and never seemed overdone, silly, or gratuitous. A beautifully put together set of images, that would make any special effects group and editor cry tears. The movie is as pretty as you think it is going to be. With the addition of stabbing with spears. Hot shirtless Spartans who all just came from a Bod Man spray commercial, fight with their golder shields and helms behind a golden sun, with crimson capes fluttering in the wind, is really wonderful to look at. Dark evil members of the Persian army help us know who is good and who is evil. But still looking awesome while enslaving all of Europa and Asia. Greek woman who are naturally beautiful and often naked keep the theme of everything in 420 BC was hot hot hot. It all melted together to really make something that I enjoyed visually.The story, stuck me a lot lighter than the visuals. A good story, which is actually a very interesting and powerful real story, of heroes who wanted to protect a nation, sort of fell flat. While it had all the elements that should have made the men, and their sacrafice mean something to us, it seemed to miss the mark. I am not sure what kept it from the grand Braveheartesque ending it so longed for, it just didn't nail it. I can't tell you why, it just was a little weak on that part. I would not say that this really breaks the movie however, it is still worthy of viewing, and even worthy of you dropping the 8 bucks per on it. So overall, I would say, yes to most of the hype, but the story could have done a little bit more.

Men's movie!
