As a massive Persian force advances on Greece in 480 B.C., Gerard Butler is Spartan king Leonidas, who leads 300 warriors to the narrow pass at Thermopylae and makes his stand there. Back in Sparta, Lena Headey’s Queen Gorgo tries to rally support as the Persian ruler Xerxes bears down with an army far larger than their own. Zack Snyder turns the battle into a stylized retelling of legend and history, with bronze armor, darkened skies, and combat staged in striking slow motion rather than naturalistic detail.
