300 - Latest Movie

I've just watched the 300 movie..Quite a good movie though...I actually very much enjoy to watch an epic movie, like the Lord of The Ring movie... This 300 movie is around 2 hours of play...

The beginning of the story is quite slow where the director try to show us the warrior culture of the Spartans, the Greek...The greatest warrior should pass through the challenge from the wild life of the nature...he should be able to use not only his strength but also his brain to overcome any obstacles...

However, it does not take long for us to see the beginning of the war...Its all started when the messenggers of the Persian empire came to Spartan to spread the word from the Persian king...bow down to the Persian empire or they will be burned down...

The king of the Spartan, Leonidas instead of giving a warm welcome to the Persian's messenger, he himself show the way to the end of their life...This scene really induce me to sit still and watch the movie till the end...heh..

For the Spartan, they will go for their priest's opinion before going for a war...And Leonidas is adviced not to go for it...(the priest were bribed by the Persian)...And good for him, he ignore it and still go for a war with his 300 men...

I just love to watch the fight scenes...Its really shows to us the technique used by the 300 Spartans...They really make use of their heavy shield to defend their line where they gather among themselves to become one big metal shield and while pushing foward the enemies, the middle line of 300 men used their long spear to kill the Persian army...I really can't put down the techniques they used in writing...you just gotta get to watch this movie, then you'll get what I'm trying to say here..heh..

The other scene I love to watch is the scene when Leonidas fight with the immortal creature (so big and so strong...) He need to stab this creature a few times before he bring it down...And he almost lost his live to this beast...

At first, I just don't like the style of the cinematography in this film. They used to slow down the speed of the action (heh...like watching a still picture) while the Spartan fight with the Persian army...However, they director manage to blend the cinematography techniques with the fighting scene (the fighting skill of the Spartan) and make it more realistic and detail...If you're looking for a detail fighting scene, then you might want to watch this movie...The Spartan seems like a fish swimming around avoiding all the obstacles in a very fast, very quickly movement (but you watch it in a slow speed of picture)...Interesting...

Well then, what you're waiting for....spend your time to watch this movie...I like it...
