300

300 hundred men, prepared for battle. Blood, action scenes, characters; Every little detail makes this movie the one you should, you must see. There is not only good action scenes, but also a good character introduction and development, and specially all those fantastic and realistic visual effects and fighting choreographies. All put together on screen to make every little inch of your body shiver.

In this movie, characters are introduced in a very peculiar way. Ranging from action scenes to very sensual ones. The first being important characters as Leonidas or Dilios, while the first one is introduced as fighting against nature and himself, the second one is pictured as the one who tells the story. But there are also ones just as Pythia or queen Gorgo whom are pictured one as a strong willed one and the sexy one. Pythia is introduced in a very artistic mood, taking on positions that are somewhat strange, and Queen Gorgo as the wife of the Spartan's king, and one as strong as him.

That aside, CG and FX also give the movie it's special touch. While fighting scenes includes good choreography, it is much exquisite with all the added animation. Yeah, all those men are pretty muscular, but not everything is their own, most of it was generated via computer, giving it a really natural look. While all those muscles are very much what gives the manly touch to the movie, what gives life to the movie is the CG. A rain of arrows that covers the sun, hell yeah, that's what i'm taking about, just take a little joke to new heights, and with animation, everything is possible.

Finally but not less important, all those fantastic fighting scenes, just rock; choreography is what is important in the realization of the fighting scenes. Sword fighting, spear fighting, shield fighting, were they crazy, or just knew how to inflict good damage with every little thing. The turtle formation, one of the most important battle formations from the spartan phalanx is depicted, with every little thrust and cover they take. But when they break formation and go one on one against they foes, they just pawn. Termophilae swords piercing persians, shields hitting heads after a full turn just to finish with an epic pose.

So if you like action movies, muscular men, beautiful women, swords, spears, blood, this is a movie you must see. Cause every little element it contains, every fiber of hair, every drop of sweat is just... art. But more than art it's something else, something really indescribable. It takes you to that time, place you can smell, touch, hear everything there is in the movie. You could only say that the movie is....

... the best

impossible or not

Nothing is impossible as long as you never back down.

Some years ago i was nothing more than an ordinary person, because i saw myself that way. Everyday following the same routine, wake up, bath, go to school, return home, homework, play, sleep. Nothing really came my way, well, most likely i didn't want to see it, even if it was right in front of me.

On the second semester of high school, i meet a teacher who taught me how to fly. Yeah, it may sound weird, like I'm crazy, well i won't deny that. Only the best people are crazy, or so they say. Have you ever felt that nothing is able to stop you, not a wall nor a car, an obstacle or a problem. Well, i have. This teacher taught me how to be free, following every path in my own way, he taught me Parkour.

Until that day i didn't think i would be able to do things i can do now, to jump, climb or move the way I'm able, nor see life in a different, more open way. I started as anyone else, with fear, distrust, weak. I stumbled against my limits, a big barrier i couldn't climb, because limits are not surpassed, but pushed instead, they grow as you train, and they crush you once you think something is impossible.

With falls and wounds i was able to learn the true magic of the word free, the meaning behind that word. Life is just the way you ask, not the way it wants to be. So i decided from that day on to live as free as i can, without barriers, taking the problems and obstacles i find on my way and changing them into step stones to help me get farther, higher, to let me be at least one step more closer to that vast blue sky

i can't... not anymore

Just as the sun goes the, it will raise up again.

I can't..

Why does people usually say this when something big, a problem or something unexpected comes across their paths or lives? Is it that the problem is really big or the goals they decided unachievable? I think it isn't. Once a wise man said, first do the thing that are within your reach, second do the things than you can, and then, when you realize it, you will be doing the unattainable.

Some of you might be thinking, why is he writing this, does he have a problem, is he depressed. Well if you think that way you might get against a wall, you are trying to find a big answer for a small problem, even though it's not a problem, at least not yours. Well as i was saying the main reason i write this is because something happened on my life that changed the way i actually see things.

An obstacle is an obstacle only if you see it that way, a problem is a problem because you want it like that. Things are possible only if you are open minded enough to try, and not only to try, but to succeed. Even if it's difficult you do it, even if it hits you hard, you go on with a stronger conviction, even if you fall, you get up again, as many times as needed in order to achieve that which you want. A strong conviction is needed, and also to remove that phrase that doesn't let you advance, i can't.

Because to fly is not only to soar the sky, but to feel free even if you don't have wings. Move on, don't stop until you get what you want, never back down, and continue staring at your goal
