Sounds like the author of this review may be projecting a bit.

This is homoerotic eye candy on steroids, complete with a sibyl from Scores who prophesies as she strips.

Eroticism is the reaction, and therefore the purview of the beholder. (Sexually explicit images notwithstanding, of course)

In the vision of these new filmmakers, Sparta is a total military culture.

Uh, this was not an invention of the filmmakers.

This article sounds funny...Like he's trying to paint the movie with the HOMO brush before it becomes too successful.

Just saw the film. Wow! Not gay at all. Pretty intense, very artistically presented, lots of blood, inspiring bravery, courage and strength. It reminded me of Braveheart quite a bit in its message of standing for freedom and submitting to no one. Did I mention that it had lots of blood? Yes. Lots of it. I mean that. Holy cow. I would watch it again and recommend it to those who like this kind of thing. Not for the kids though. Not even close.

This is a stylized movie of Thermopylae by a director who specializes in this style of film (Sin City). The author is the one who needs to get a grip of his manhood, figuratively speaking, that is.
