Saw 300 today. Sort of silly, but I was entertained.

Ah 300. If they took out the slow-motion, the movie would only be about 40 minutes long.

I found all those "monsters" quite stupid. The movie makes it look like the Persians were a freak show.

I wouldn't call myself a fanatic, but I do enjoy a good summer blockbuster. Oh, and you can just call me Omega or OD.

Some hate action movies for being 'shallow' but in any case I can tell from experience that what they hate I may well like.

If you read several reviewers and find one or two that you usually agree with then let them guide you. Unfortunately most reviewers are looking for some social redeeming value or underlying message, and many of us just want to have a good time and not feel the time spent watching a movie was wasted.
