Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

This movie is awesome. End of story. It's got everything you'd want from 300 and more. The naval warfare aspect was sweet and refreshing. This sequel does a fantastic job with cinematic continuity. Almost feels like Snyder made it himself. Well done to Murro on the direction and execution. An enjoayable sequel and a fun time at the movies!

A feast in so many ways! Unbelievably clear, brilliant photography. Very graphic, but never ceases to amaze. The film is ultimately not as exciting or entertaining as its predecessor, but nevertheless still fascinating. Plot flaws galore, it doesn't quite made sense why Themistokles went to Artemisia's ship, as it seemed like a suicide mission, but the sex scene that subsequently followed was indeed one to behold!The film does become a bit repetitive and the slow motion overdone, but the eye candy more than compensates for this! Sullivan Stapleton makes a likable hero.

This is one of the worst sequels ever. 300 was an iconic movie which set a landmark for upcoming action movies. I haven't seen action sequences as good as 300 in any other movie till now. This movie couldn't deliver after creating so much hype after its predecessor. I appreciate performance of Eva Green as Artemisia in this movie. This movie is all about her.We do not get to see much of Xerxes or Dilios as expected. Themistokles is no match for Leonidus. Story is weak as well compared to 300. None of the character seems impressive. Went to theater to watch an action flick but had to wait for more than an hour of boring politics s**t to finally get some good action sequences. The last scene with Lena Headey is superb! This movie is easily avoidable. I see this movie just as a boring build up for maybe something interesting that is yet to come. Hope the next one will not disappoint!

I really enjoy the part 1.. It makes me keep wanting to watch over and over again.. But for this 'Rise of an Empire' its totally twisted the fact and lots of loop holes in the story.. Lots of corny before battle speeches that makes me sleepy, overuse of slow motion effects,killings that makes no sense.. I really regret watching this. The greatness and inspiring 300 in my mind is ruined.. If you are going to watch this movie seriously and expect it to be as good as part 1 then trust me you are wrong. I don't even recognize this as 300 part 2.. It's just a lame movie trying to imitate 300 legacy and fail miserably. The high ratings obviously more than half are fakes.. Just go read those positive reviews.. So much loopholes. They can name the crews, actors and actress so well like a book. Wow.. And i saw one of them prompting people to buy DVDs when out. So obvious they are insiders that came here to make fake votes and reviews.. I dun even know the names of the actors and actress so well.. Hey.. Stop cheating yourselves that this was a successful movie. It is not at all..
