Murro acquits himself more than well, borrowing a lot from Snyder's playbook while managing to find his own way through the material... Murro favors a somewhat faster, messier look than the first "300," with a constantly tracking, swooping camera in lieu of Snyder's more fixed, meticulously composed tableaux, and a minimum of the super slow-motion that gave "300's" battle scenes their dreamy, ethereal air.
