Critics Consensus

A simple-minded but visually exciting experience, full of blood, violence, and ready-made movie quotes.

Ghosty

Very cool story, artistry, and action. Very violent. Excellent comic book style movie, based on a Frank Miller graphic novel, similar style to Sin City.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Amazingly violent with a story line to keep you entertained u til the credits. Over exaggerates the true story but allows for an amazing climax and plot

If 300 represents an evolution in 'virtual' cinema, then at the same time it tells a story that transports us back to the violent roots of western civilisation.

Chicago Sun-Times

300 has one-dimensional caricatures who talk like professional wrestlers plugging their next feud.

In this handsome pantomime, the performances are not what we are watching.

Deep Focus Review

300 claims some impressive visuals, but the narrow-mindedness of the plot and the childishness of the writing made this film hugely disappointing.

Rated: 1.5/5

Forget realism, this is Greek history as a macho fantasy that privileges brute force over intellect and turns war in an epic gladiator battle.
