Review Detail

Turning the 2 films into a single chronological narrative works wonders, particularly in increasing the quality of the sequel’s narrative. For me, this turned the sequel into an almost as interesting story as 300 was, and that’s an achievement in itself.

The editing is top-notch here. The transitions from one film to the other were perfect, couldn’t find a difference between the original cuts and the (many) new ones.

At 17m12, there’s something weird happening with the framerate, just for a few seconds, the video seems jittery. I’ve checked, this is not present in the original.
