About this movie

The 300 Spartans is an account of the 480 B.C. Battle of Thermopylae, in which the Spartan King Leonidis, played by Richard Egan, led a remarkably small number of men to victory over an invading Persian army led by evil King Xerxes that was about 20 times as large. This spectacular conflict gave the Grecians enough time to organize a force to ultimately repel the Persians, and thus change the course of Western civilization. The film was directed by Rudolph Mate and stars Richard Egan and Ralph Richardson.

Ratings and reviews

Like my previous statement fir 300 this might not be an exact history. Saying that for visual effects and entertainment value this was just as good as the first, fantastic scenes well dramatised and great entertainment. Looking forward to the last film to come out soon.

Great action
