It would be kind of embarrassing if an army went to war and, instead of dying with honor in the heat of battle, they all died of starvation because they didn't bring any food with them.

Edit: I guess they could've killed some wolves or something and cooked it over the fire, but still.

But a fresh apple, being kept where the fighting/killing was being done. . .
IT'S JUST NOT PLAUSIBLE

Do apples even grow in Greece in that time?

Hey, I'm a girl and I thought it kicked ass!

I went to see it a couple of weeks ago with my husband and some of our friends and we had a grand old time!  The only things that even remotely bothered me were the mostly mediocre acting (ie, screaming every single line of the whole movie - but hey, it's hard to find a bunch of professional bodybuilders with solid acting credentials, and they were very nice to look at!  :-D) and the two over-the-top cheeseball scenes (the love-making scene at the beginning that went on so long that even the boys I was with got tired of looking at the boobies, and the scene after dude's son died where he goes all crazy-eyed and apeshit about how he never told his son that he loved him).  Those two scenes just felt really...out-of-place and unnecessary with the rest of the movie.  I don't think I'd have missed anything if they'd been removed entirely, but that's just my opinion.

All in all, though, the movie was GORGEOUS and adrenaline-pumping and fantastic and everything I hoped it would be.  I left the theater wishing I was a Spartan.  Of course, then we came home and re-watched Sin City for the millionth time and blathered on about how awesome Frank Miller is.

Lines:
I'm a girl and I really enjoyed it. The cinematography was great and the story was pretty good. The only CGI I had a problem with was the wolf. The wolf was crap compared to the rest of it.

And badassery was when the wife stabbed the guy for calling her a whore. He had it coming.

Desmonkey:
i loved the film!

everything about it was great; the CG, the acting, the story, the blood, the fight scene choreography and especially the Persian armies.

but still, i preferred Sin City to Millers last work. sin city had more depth, with the same amount of violence for the barbaric viewers out there.
