300 follows the story of the Battle of Thermopylae where the Greeks fought the invading Persians against great odds, but it gets history all wrong.
Loosely based on Frank Miller's comic series of the same name, Zack Snyder's 300 tells the legend of the historical battle of Thermopylae. It follows King Leonidas of Sparta (Gerard Butler) as he leads a small force of 300 Spartans against the amassed Persian army of 300,000. Meanwhile, his wife Queen Gorgo (Lena Headey) remains in Sparta to negotiate reinforcements against political resistance.

TIL: Many of the most badass lines in the movie 300 were real historical quotes; and that dry, blunt wit has been named after that region of Grece as a result.
