Mmhmm, the battle referred to here took place 480 "BC". And to be perfectly frank, I think we all have to admit that it doesn't matter WHAT the filmmakers intended to say with the movie...people will draw their own conclusions and run with it, claiming that they're backed by the opinions of...

Considering the movie - and the true story it's (loosely) based on - is set several hundred years before Islam came into existence, I don't think it's fair to say it's anti-Islam at all. It's certain anti-Persian under Xerxes, but he WAS a tyrant and people DID suffer, not the least of which...
