There the 300, including David Wenham, face an army that may count in the millions.
Such is where the film comes to life.
It’s a film about a number of staged sieges, and Snyder has the eye.
King Leonidas of Sparta leads 300 of his best warriors to defend Greece against the massive invading Persian army led by King Xerxes. Outnumbered and facing insurmountable odds, the Spartans make their stand at the narrow pass of Thermopylae, using their superior tactics and fighting skills to hold off the Persians.
He knows how to deal these scenes.
Snyder’s sense of control is pretty spectacular.
Though the moral compass of the film may be magnetized, the set pieces deliver and then some.
300is streaming on Netflix until the end of this month.
