You are not alone. A History of Violence is one of the lousiest pieces of cinematic trash I've ever seen disgrace a movie screen. My hubby and I are both astounded by the raves it received. /end threadjack

As for 300, we just got back from it. I wasn't expecting a precise history lesson. I wasn't expecting deep character and plot development. I really don't even like gory movies that much. I was quite pleased when I left the movie theater and it was an enjoyable way to spend the afternoon.
