Movie Review






Movie Theme

Queen Gorgo (Lena Headey) tells her men about the Battle of Marathon, in which King Darius I (Yigal Naor) of Persia was killed by General Themistocles (Sullivan Stapleton) of Athens. Darius' son, Xerxes (Rodrigo Santoro), witnesses his father's death, and is advised to not continue the war, since "only the gods could defeat the Greeks". Darius' naval commander, Artemisia (Eva Green), claims that Darius' last words were in fact a challenge and sends Xerxes on a journey through the desert. Xerxes finally reaches a cave and bathes in an otherworldly liquid, emerging as the "God-King". He returns to Persia and declares war on Greece.
As Xerxes' forces advance towards Thermopylae, Themistocles meets with the council and convinces them to provide him with a fleet to engage the Persians at sea. Themistocles then travels to Sparta to ask King Leonidas for help, but is informed by Dilios (David Wenham) that Leonidas is consulting the Oracle, and Gorgo is reluctant to side with the Greeks. Themistocles later reunites with his old friend Scyllas (Callan Mulvey), who infiltrated the Persian troops
 Themistocles leads his men, which include Scyllas, Scyllas' son Calisto (Jack O'Connell) and Themistocles' right-hand man Aesyklos (Hans Matheson) to the Aegean Sea. They ram their ships into the Persian ships and charge them, slaughtering several soldiers before retreating. The following day, the Greeks force one of the Persian ships into a crevice, where it becomes struck, and charge the other ships, killing more Persians. Impressed with Themistocles' skills, Artemisia has him brought onto her ship, where they have sex. She offers him a place in her army, but he refuses, causing her to swear revenge.
