    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Because of the complicated effects involved in making Xerxes a 10 foot giant, Rodrigo Santoro filmed almost all of his scenes alone in a green-screen room and had little/no interaction with the rest of the cast. He said it was difficult but he got used to it as he had also done it on the first film.
    • Goofs
      The Greek soldier considered the "Hero of Marathon" was Miltiades, not Themistocles. Themistocles was the main General of the Greeks in the Battle of Salamina.
    • Quotes

      [from trailer]

      Themistocles: Better we show them, we chose to die on our feet, rather than live on our knees!

    • Crazy credits
      The Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures logos are seen on doors that open up to reveal the mural of Leonidas and the 300 Spartans.
    • Alternate versions
      The Indian theatrical release was cut in order to obtain an A (adults only) rating. The sex scene was trimmed.

      Edited from 300 (2006)

      Written by Ozzy Osbourne (as John Osbourne), Bill Ward (as William Ward), Geezer Butler (as Terence Butler) and Tony Iommi

    Good Action

    Not as good as the first one, but still watchable.

    • This movie is a sequel to "300" (2006) and ends somewhat ambiguously. Are there any plans to round out the series with a third and final film?
    • Is this set before or after "300"?
    • Who else will return from "300"?
