Review of 300: Rise of an Empire (2014) by Striderkiwi — 08 Mar 2014
Great sequel. It's just as gory and stylish as the previous one. The 3D is well implemented, Eva Green is great as the villain and we get to see her Xerxes backstory. The movie takes place both before, during and after the events of 300, and I think that's really awesome.
The special effects are great too. There's some memorable lines as always and then there's the sex scene which, while I normally don't like those sorts of scenes is actually not only tasteful but also hilarious considering how it ends.
Only downside is that Themistocles, the new protagonist, isn't as memorable as Leonidas. I felt like it was a great sequel. I guess there's just no pleasing some people.
