For me as a fan of the original, it was fair enough but not in the same league as the first. For everyone else, probably you won't miss much if you let this one pass by. If you enjoyed the first and and want more then you'll find it here. In many way its a paint by numbers sequel as such (although the timeframe of the film mostly parallels that of the first). Yet that misses out what was quite a strong point of the previous film. In fairness to our new lead, he is purposely more human than the old King Leonidas, and is a great warrior without the Spartan attitude. The lead ain't no patch on Gerald Butler and is outshone by Eva Green as the temptress Persian battle queen. If anything the flaws of this highlight just what was best in the old one. Say what you like but there's a lot of wonderful points in the first that is what has made it a cult favourite. The English actor has found steady work ever since, especially on U.K. The bad thing is that the dialogue is really poor and the story not as riveting, engrossing and rousing as the first. 17 hours ago &0183 &32 Andrew Tiernan reprised his role as Ephialtes in the sequel '300: Rise of an Empire' in 2014. The film is wall to wall action and you'll be enthralled. Some old faces but the opposing captains of our sides this time are the wonderful Eva Green and the less convincing Sullivan Stapleton. We have here a film that focuses on another clan of Greek fighters battling against Xerxes' men, except this time it's on warships, so it's really '300 on the Sea'. I'm happy I did but it's not a patch on the original.
As a fan of the prequel I was willing to give this the benefit of the doubt. In some ways it happened to the prequel also. Now the professional reviewers seemed to pan this before it had any chance.
