300 sucked i dont get it why so many people liked it. it was stupid with a bunch of bombastic performance from all the actors specially gerard butler. the look of it was dissorienthing and it looked like a videogame(i love videogames but i wanted to se a movie not a videogame) the cgi looked very fake and overall i hated it. 3/10 for me.

It's based off a comic book...it's supposed to look like that...

Like what? A cross between a music video and gay porn?

My biggest problem with 300, apart from the fascist subtext, is that it would have been < 30m long if not for all the bloody slo-mo.

 

Best films of the year though were probably No Country For Old Men (even though it's not one of the Coen's best, it's a helluva step up from The Ladykillers) and Grindhouse (Deathproof was a massive step up from Kill Bill and Planet Terror was a riot).

Gone Baby Gone was a pleasant surprise, and Before the Devil Knows Your Dead was pretty awesome too (Carter Burwell's score is ace).

On a videogame related note, The King of Kong was the best documentary I've seen since Murderball.
