300 (2006)

Too long, too explicit, far too easy. The story teller's voice is booming comenting what I can see or I should be able to see. These devices make less of a possible interesting plot. It is as if everything about people happens in public, in the open. There is no depth to it except maybe Xerses's generated and godly voice. Also 300 looks clearly like a post-Matrix movie: the battle scenes are all peppered with the fast-slow technique used in Matrix. It doesn't look that bad but it's been done to death and it doesn't show even an attempt to make it appriate for the context. It is copy-pasting like the structure of the plot. Overall...I did not like it.
