A review of Frank Miller’s 300
Mark Olsen at the Los Angeles Times wrote up an interesting review of Frank Miller’s upcoming movie 300, about the battle between an entire Persian horde against only 300 Spartans. In the review Olsen draws up the similarity in shooting style to that of the first Sin City movie, which was shot almost entirely against greenscreen, with “sets” composited digitally.

It also mentions the costumes, which are almost non-existant (in an attempt to stay as true as possible to history, the actors wear sandals and loincloths and little more), so if you had a problem with the costumes in Apocalypto, you’ll probably have a problem with 300. Fortunately I’m mature enough to get past that, lol. Frank Miller’s 300, starring Gerard Butler (Phantom of the Opera), hits theatres March 9th.
