300 [Special Edition] [WS] [2 Discs] [DVD] [2007]

Great transfer! Still remains some grain, but it has been cleaned up. This is the best it has ever looked.

IT was extremely graphy film but it was a great production. Thanks Best buy for spending this kind of product. I always buy in my favorite electronics store Best Buy.

Awesome movie. Awesome steelbook. Love the depiction of the Spartans in battle.

Love to see classic movies on steel book! (Lol yeah I called 300 a classic, come at me bro!) Only thing I would complain about is that it did not include a digital copy but otherwise I am very satisfied with the item I purchased as well as the price.

I searched many stores before going to BestBuy.Iooked around the store for dvds until I found the movie 300. So I decided to purchase the movie..

It's so funny how in the movie they portray Xerxes to be Vain, Naive, and arrogant enough to claim himself as a "God-King" a "King of King's" and "perfect beyond measure", and then you read the reviews from fellow Iranians, and Persians who are so triggered by the portrayal of their God-King Xerxes in this movie, that they even go as far to write statements in their review such as: "Persians are perfect we are not like this" "How can they make false information about persians" "We are the best people in the world" It's safe to say that this persian "god-like" thinking is in their genes/DNA. Zack Snyder most definitely realized this insecure-complex-easily-antagonized-fragile-ego-like-mentality and capitalized on it to acquire controversy over his film sparking debate, and free-marketing. I believe the idea of this film was to portray how godly yet humane Spartans were, and the idea of allowing a "Xenos" (greek word for stranger) to conquer and rule above them, even a thought like this is considered disrespect, and punishable by death in the world of Sparta. I don't believe the film was intended to be historically accurate by any means, but was meant to show Spartan gene, and spartan blood. Show no fear, fight till death, and against all-odds glorious in death. This mentality is in the blood of modern day spartans, if you ever get the chance to meet someone who has spartan blood in them you will know. You will understand what it means to be a Spartan, if you ever stand by one. Honour, Strength, and Pride runs fierce in Spartan genes. Again, Spartans are no less, and no more than any other human - sure as hell they may have not been the brightest, but their ferociousness when defending their honour, family, pride, and what they believe in, is yet to be tested by ANY other human. Ask a Spartan to defend his country against defying odds, and impossible scenarios- and the legend of thermopylae exists. Ask a Spartan to tutor you in math- you will fail your exam. that's my point. the movie is to portray one thing, who Spartans were, and what they did against the impossible.

The 4K version of 300 is a delight to behold. This is a very stylized film and should not be mistaken for a native 4K standard movie. That said, I thought this film shows an increase in detail and texture. The CGI works well and I found no issues with effects looking fake or soft. Sound quality is top notch. Steelbook packaging is really nice for a graphics standpoint, and work shelling out a few bucks for. Only negative note was I noticed the disc I had played loud in my 4K player. However since this is not a movie you've want to play at low levels, it wasn't a problem. Will have to play movie again to see if it persists. Would highly recommend.

The Spartans trained war machines defend their land against Xerxes massive Persian army, whose primary purpose is to march into Greece and conquer their homeland, whatever the cost. The 300 elite personal guards defied their Oracle and the odds to wage war against Xerxes' massive, unrelenting Persian army. Faced with the choice of submitting to Xerxes or waging war, Leonidas makes the only choice a warrior-king can, and that is to fight. Leonidas and his personal detachment. 300 has it all. Action-packed excitement, drama, thrills, and more importantly, the historical scenes that depict the timeline of when they battle took place.
