300: Rise Of An Empire 3D
300 Rise of an Empire is a 2014 American fantasy war film on Blu-ray 3D
& 2D and Ultraviolet, directed by Noam Murro and a follow up to the
2007 film 300.
Greek general Themistocles leads the charge against invading Persian forces
led by mortal-turned-god Xerxes and Artemisia, vengeful commander of the Persian
navy. After its victory over Leonidas' 300, the Persian Army under the command
of Xerxes marches towards the major Greek city-states. The Democratic city of
Athens, first on the path of Xerxes' army, bases its strength on its fleet, led
by admiral Themistocles. Themistocles is forced to an unwilling alliance with
the traditional rival of Athens, oligarchic Sparta whose might lies with its
superior infantry troops. But Xerxes still reigns supreme in numbers over sea
and land.
