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 bad thing is that the dialogue is really poor and the story not as riveting, engrossing and rousing as the first. 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.
