If you have not yet seen the 300, you owe it to yourself to drop whatever you are doing and go see it right now. I don't care if you are at work and busy, there are more important things. Literally, there was very little to this plot, but it didn't matter. It was a great movie based on awesomeness alone. Who doesn't want to watch Spartan warriors kicking ass for a couple hours. My only objection is that it wasn't long enough. I am hoping that there are roughly 2 more hours of deleted battle scenes on the DVD. I honestly want to go see it in the theater again. This doesn't happen often with me, usually I see a movie as a totally ripoff, but not this one.. DO NOT WAIT FOR IT ON DVD.. you MUST see this on the big screen. trust me... you will thank me for this.
Also, for the small screen.. Rocky fans out there, if you have not seen Rocky Balboa yet, you owe it to yourself to check this movie out. For closure sake, it is a must see. Definitely a fitting ending to the Rocky saga. It was easily the closest thing to the original movie out of the entire series. It had it's vintage Rocky cringe scenes.. but that's what we love about Rocky right?? my main objection is that they didn't find just a truly ripped actor to play his rival in this movie. Mr T was menacing. Apollo Creede was unstoppable.. Ivan Drago.. Towering Eastern Euro Fury.. this guy.. not so much. Now, I know he is a legit fighter and would tear me apart... but the true greatness of a Rocky villain is in their larger than life feel. They would have been much better served finding a huge ripped actor Ala Mr. T. Than a boxer that is looking to act. He just had to pretend to know how to box anyway. So why not just find some 6'8 300 pound wall of muscle that Rocky has to fight.. how would that have not made fora better movie???
