Saw it today, it started out entertaining and I was sick of it about half way through. The words "Wow never seen THAT before" ran through my head many times. Yay over style-ized battle scene...yay fake CGI blood, yay mutant things, omfg king of the world who thinks he's a god! If you've seen any roman war movie you've seen this. Except this is dressed up with a crapload of unnecessary CGI.

The auidence didn't help me enjoy it either, from mothers with babies to mothers with 4 or 5 7 year olds. The rest were 14 year olds who snuck in or paid someone to buy them tickets. They laughed at everything and to be honest some scenes and dialog was so bad I couldn't help but chuckle myself.

The previews were even more depressing, over half the movies we saw previews to were "THE *Insert over used word here*" Not only were the titles uninspired but the movies looked that way also.

Maybe it was because I've been watching alot of old movies but the new movies we get now of days are all so horribly unoriginal and uninspiring. Their so bad their not even funny. Atleast bad movies from the 80's are funny.

I really had hopes this year for movies. I liked The Departed alot and to see a film I like win best picture for once I thought "Maybe movies will get better" but this blockbuster just proved my other theory 300% correct.
