Trivia:
The actual word "Thermopylae" is not mentioned once in the entire film. However, it directly translates into modern English as "Hot Gates", which Leonidas clearly mentions in his battle strategy. moreGoofs:
Crew or equipment visible: On a close-up shot of Leonidas, when he is about to kneel to Xerxes, you can see the reflection of the studio lights in his eyes. moreFAQ
Was it really 300 Spartans against a million Persians?Does Dilios actually participate in the battle?
Why is there a bottomless pit in the middle of town?

Really enjoyed it.
My only regret is I saw it at a non IMAX Cinema.
Don't get caught up in all the anti hype. Enjoy it for what it is which is a good tale, great action scenes, (if not a little over done), great war film acting and above all, a moral tale for today's age.
As for the historical angle and the comparison against the old film, try to enjoy this one as a modern updated version not unknown for its up to date (and cgi'd) feel.
Its the sort of film which made me want to find out about the Spartans and this particular period. Sad of me? Maybe, but I don't mind, it was great fun.
Enjoy, I certainly did.
