Early 300 Reviews

After The Transformers, there is no single film I've been looking forward to more this year than 300. All I'm going to say is that you should be excited... be very very excited! Right now some early reviews are coming in. As of this moment, 300 is sitting with a 100% on Rotttentomatoes. Take that with the grain of salt that when I checked there were only 8 reviews up... but amongst them are some big ones.
Here is what is being said by some of the critics in their 300 reviews:
"A blustery, bombastic, visually arresting account of the Battle of Thermopylae as channeled through the rabid imagination of graphic novelist Frank Miller."
Todd McCarthy - Variety
"Frank Miller's graphic novel about an ancient Greek battle comes to vivid life."
Kirk Honeycutt - Hollywood Reporter
"Snyder perfectly captures the look and feel of Miller's original work with a movie that's fun, exciting and sick without ever losing sight of the story or characters."
Edward Douglas - ComingSoon.net
"Director Zack Snyder adapts Frank Miller's graphic novel with passion and creativity, proving that classical storytelling will never go out of style."
Todd Gilchrist - IGN Movies
All I'm going to say at this point is that the hype is justified. 100% justified. 300 opens wide in just a couple of weeks.
