Review: While the first film 300 treated and events Leonidas
at Thermopylae, here the focus is
to battle just as furious, fought, dark
choppy waters. King Xerxes (Santoro) and
Queen Gorgo of Sparta (Headey) face with their
respective commanders Artemisia (green)
and Themistocles (Stapleton)
leads armed. While the previous film in the beautiful opening called shot,
the struggle must drive on the shoulders of Themistocles.
Artemisia is a commander who does not think that many of his opponents, wearing sandals and diapers. In fact, the Persian fleet, dissidents Greek galleys until they meet with Themistocles. Artemisia realizes that they are equal in strategy and cunning, against overwhelming force and numerical superiority alone will not work.
Themistocles, but lacks the insane bloodlust that Leonidas is requested, is tired of the war. However, be aware that each of them would have to, if necessary, to save the ultimate sacrifice "Mother of Greece It shows its determination in the collection of the Greek forces with phrases like." We chose to die standing than live on knees! "But is it immune to the charms of Artemisia are female or prove to be the Achilles heel?
Xerxes himself, which seems from a gold bath and brilliant to have grown up in multiple piercings, is relegated to a few booming phrases. Blood and gore of the scale; warriors attacked and cut in glorious detail CGI. Part-vamp and part warrior princess in leather, green is impressive as Artemisia. The film itself looks fantastic, awash in red sepia tone that dominates everything. Although you've seen a lot of action movies set at a point in history (set 480 BC), there is much here to keep your attention from beginning to end.
