And disliking Close Encounters because you only see the aliens for five minutes is a bit like dislikin' Cloverfield because you get no profile shot of the monster, nor is there any exposition to where it came from or how to stop it.

OK, here is a list of boring films, along with a list of non boring kickass films.
BORING: Close encounters, LOTR, Eternal sunshine, Star Trek, Charlies angels.....
NON BORING KICK ASS: SW, Shoot 'em up, ID4, Love actually, indy trilogy, Boondock saints......
This is my opinion, thats all, due to my taste....and 300 is FAR from boring.
Well, I can. I personally found it rather enjoyable, not great but alright. But in defense of those bored by it, it is very constant from beginning to end. It shows very little variation in tempo, style or story. The only thing that changes are the looks of the assailants (which goes from ugly to the ridiculous). Other than that it pretty much flatlines in story development.
