Not sure if they present it in the movie, but there were about 1,000 Thespian (region of Greece) soldiers that stayed behind with the 300 Spartans so the other forced could escape and re-group.
Also, looks like the Spartans aren't wearing any armor in the movie, which is complete BS (so they can show off the Spartan soldiers' builds)...Spartans were known to wear the ancient version of Kevlar.
Also, the Athenian navy and it's admiral(?) had just as much if not more to do w/ the eventual defeat of the Persian invasion.
Oh well, it's only a movie...I'm sure I'll enjoy it.
