1.0

A lot of Greek name dropping and gory death scenes. It is basically a lot of killing of people you don’t care much about. I can appreciate its place in history and it certainly explains why Western culture views violence as entertainment, but it is personally not to my taste.

Like reading a dragon ball z episode. These mfs had to give such long winded speeches before they did battle.
