A stylized, hyperkinetic war spectacle built on graphic-novel aesthetics, slow-motion carnage, and mythic heroism rather than intimate character work or moral complexity.
Greek general Themistocles attempts to unite all of Greece by leading the charge that will change the course of the war. Themistocles faces the massive invading Persian forces led by mortal-turned-god, Xerxes and Artemesia, the vengeful commander of the Persian navy.
