It's so funny how in the movie they portray Xerxes to be Vain, Naive, and arrogant enough to claim himself as a "God-King" a "King of King's" and "perfect beyond measure", and then you read the reviews from fellow Iranians, and Persians who are so triggered by the portrayal of their God-King Xerxes in this movie, that they even go as far to write statements in their review such as: "Persians are perfect we are not like this" "How can they make false information about persians" "We are the best people in the world"
It's safe to say that this persian "god-like" thinking is in their genes/DNA. Zack Snyder most definitely realized this insecure-complex-easily-antagonized-fragile-ego-like-mentality and capitalized on it to acquire controversy over his film sparking debate, and free-marketing.
I believe the idea of this film was to portray how godly yet humane Spartans were, and the idea of allowing a "Xenos" (greek word for stranger) to conquer and rule above them, even a thought like this is considered disrespect, and punishable by death in the world of Sparta.
I don't believe the film was intended to be historically accurate by any means, but was meant to show Spartan gene, and spartan blood. Show no fear, fight till death, and against all-odds glorious in death. This mentality is in the blood of modern day spartans, if you ever get the chance to meet someone who has spartan blood in them you will know. You will understand what it means to be a Spartan, if you ever stand by one. Honour, Strength, and Pride runs fierce in Spartan genes.
Again, Spartans are no less, and no more than any other human - sure as hell they may have not been the brightest, but their ferociousness when defending their honour, family, pride, and what they believe in, is yet to be tested by ANY other human.
Ask a Spartan to defend his country against defying odds, and impossible scenarios- and the legend of thermopylae exists.
Ask a Spartan to tutor you in math- you will fail your exam.
that's my point. the movie is to portray one thing, who Spartans were, and what they did against the impossible.
