300 is largely remembered for its spectacle, but one of the more underrated elements that makes the movie work so well is the camaraderie among the Spartan warriors.

300 is set in ancient Greece during the Battle of Thermopylae and follows King Leonidas (Gerard Butler) and 300 Spartan warriors facing the massive Persian army led by King Xerxes (Rodrigo Santoro).

300 is based on the graphic novel of the same name by Frank Miller and Lynn Varley. The movie is directed by Snyder from a screenplay he co-wrote with Kurt Johnstad and Michael B. Gordon.
