I liked it - I'm a fan of cool fight scenes accompanied by rousing music - but I expected more, for some reason. Everything with the wife struck me as pandering. I didn't care about her feelings about Leonidas and/or vice versa, and her rape I found to be mildly offensive and ridiculous. Was I supposed to think "wow, she'd give up her body...for Spartaaaaaaaaaa! ? All I wanted was more fighting.
