Editorial Reviews:

History has never been so... hysterical! Prepare to fight for honor, fight for glory, and fight back tears of laughter watching this gut-busting spoof comedy that skewers pop culture's biggest icons.

In Meet the Spartans, the heroic Leonidas, armed with nothing but leather underwear and a cape, leads a ragtag group of 13 - count'em, 13! - warriors to defend their homeland against the invading Persians, whose ranks include Ghost Rider, Rocky Balboa, the Transformers, and a hunchbacked Paris Hilton.

You won't find a funnier Greek war film even if you live to see 300!

Summary: It's interesting movie!!!
Comment: This movie was fun and interesting. This movie characters are funny and acts are good. The movie CGI was nice. The blu-ray disc was good.

Summary: Beyond Bad
Comment: Those who haven't seen the movie "300" probably won't get most of the jokes in "Meet the Spartans," and those who HAVE seen it probably won't get them either. That's because for any audience this is one of the worst, most jaw-droppingly witless parodies in motion picture history (and that's saying quite a lot).

Suffice it to say that this slapdash mixture of gladiator-movie cliches and truly lame pop culture references has enough homophobic jokes to set the cause of gay rights back a good quarter of a century or more (OK, these Spartan warriors like men; we get it, we get it!).

Indicative of the movie's utter failure at pacing and timing are two scenes - one at the "pit of death" and another featuring a step-dance competition between the Greeks and the Persians - that drone on for a minor eternity. But then the whole movie goes on too long - 86 minutes too long to be exact.

Summary: An Army of 3 Strong
Comment: This is obviously a take on Frank Millers movie 300.
Well it has some great moments, but falls off a little here and there where there aren't any laughs.

Still enjoyable though.

Customer Rating:

Summary: No people! NO!
Comment: You may think the 1 star rating is for the movie. No! The movie gets no stars. The 1 star is for the people who gave it 5 stars.

Customer Rating:

Summary: Dont waste the time.
Comment: One word to describe this movie DUMB. Nothing about it was funny. Has been actors who wont let it go and some who cant even act.
