An illustrated telling of folklore and history mixed together with Miller's dramatic art. War is not glorified so much as how the Spartans act as warriors. Woven into a story of the battle is that of Leonidas, the King of Sparta, and how he prepares for what he knows will be the greatest battle he will fight. A portrayal of what a leader will sacrifice for the good of his realm.
The movie does not do justice to the sheer impact of Miller's work. Though it was interesting to see the Spartan's tactics in motion, something difficult to convey in a static medium. |
