"300" racks up record body count at box office

Posted by ElCaribeno4 1005 days ago
Heads rolled at the weekend box office in North America as the blood-soaked ancient epic "300" slaughtered its foes in spectacular fashion.

The grim warrior tale sold an estimated $70 million worth of tickets during its first three days of release, setting a new record for a March release, the film's distributor Warner Bros. Pictures said on Sunday.

    The movie was good but I don't think it deserves greatness. Someone below compared it to Gladiator and Braveheart. Those were great. 300 is just a 2 hour battle. No character development. Don't get me wrong it is entertaining but I do not believe it deserves to be categorized with Braveheart and Gladiator. Plain and simple, 300 is testosterone to the max, which does not equal greatness.

    From phantom of the opera and ghegis khan to this...Gerard Butler is now a bona fide star!! He no longer has to "act" in the "shade". this film ( it has surpassed movie status) will set the tone for more to come, copycats and the like. Look what Galdiator as wrought? From Troy ( aka Brad)! to Kingdom of heaven, this is the one that stands alone. You must see the film on IMAX! Guys, take your ladies, they will thank you for it later. Made me work even harder in the gym.

    This movie isn't just for guys...I love a good action flick, but it's even better when there are strong female rolls, and the when the Persian emissary asks how can a woman speak among men, the Spartan Queens answer says it all, "Because only Spartan women give birth to real men." She was awesome, the movie was awesome. You don't find many strong female roles, especially in period films. This movie rocked from the first minute to the last.

    when it comes to greek mythology this is the cream of the crop. Saw this movie on yestersday,ready to see again/again. You put 300 300 Spartans Troy together each would take home an Oscar.

  • Oh my Gosh!!! This has to be one of the best epic movies ever made. I was so impressed. I don't even have words to describe the feeling. If you get a chance you def need to watch it in IMAX. We traveled 2 hours away to watch it and it was worth every bit of time and money we spent. :)

  • Being a history geek, and having read Gates of Fire, I was eager to see this film.
    Minus a few bits being out of place, and hollywood taking a great story that could have stood on its' own. It is a damn fine film.
    3.75 stars

  • When I first saw a picture advertising this movie, I didn't really care to see it.. but after hearing a little bit about the plot, I couldn't wait to see it! I'm a sucker for any "based on true story" movies. We went the other day.. & it's amazing!! It's my favorite movie right now! I highly recommend it to anyone & everyone!
