300 is Not to be Missed

You do not want to miss this film. Based on the epic graphic novel by Frank Miller, 300 is a ferocious retelling of the ancient Battle of Thermopylae in which King Leonidas (Gerard Butler) and 300 Spartans fought to the death against Xerxes and his massive Persian army. Facing insurmountable odds, their valor and sacrifice inspire all of Greece to unite. It opens on March 9. It should be a bloody good time, but don’t take the kiddies. This is not meant for them. I won’t have a chance to see it opening weekend and that next week I will be taking midterm exams. So I will plan on catching it over Spring break (march 16-25). Sounds like a great boys night out to me.
