Picola Posted March 26, 2007 Report Share Posted March 26, 2007 Just thought to make a post about it.Its been reviewed as amazing, brilliant, a masterpiece etc.But did anyone feel it was a bit, well, s hite? LolI was really looking forward to watching it, especially as I loved Sin city.I love gore, a good tale and mean looking bad guys.But what the bejebus was with the story line?It was, in my fella's words, "disjointed"I know it was lightly based on historic events, but a fat guy with snippy clipper hands? HmpfIt was good to look at, and I really like the scene where the king lies dead amongst his men.But it was here there and everywhere. Too up to date insults/sarcasm in a film set over 1000 years ago just didnt work.I give it 5 wibbly eggs out of 10.Over and out, Johnathon Woss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartyP Posted March 26, 2007 Report Share Posted March 26, 2007 (edited) Well the story is actually greek mythology.Frank Miller ( The creator of " Sin City " ) Obviously found this interesting and used it as a foundation to create this.Like Sin City it skimmes the line of reality with alot of fantasy involved.It's not really mean't to show real facts style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" />One thing that did bug me slightly....In the Film they show how the king and queen like to get funky. Yet it's a fact that Spartans were very " style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":Angel:" border="0" alt="Angel.gif" /> ".Meaning they like to swing both ways.Not saying that's what i wanted to see but style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> would have added the comical value to it.Big buff men with super man capes making out after a battle. :| Edited March 26, 2007 by MartyP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MartyP Posted March 26, 2007 Report Share Posted March 26, 2007 (edited) Actually let me correct myself completely.Not even bisexual.They were homosexual.Sigh...

BigMon Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 I enjoyed it, but I agree it wasn't utterly brilliant. I'd probably give it a 6.5.Didn't compare to Sin City which I thought was awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
