Rating:  - funny enough for these types of movies
I saw 300 and saw this movie. I did not like 300 , but I really enjoyed watching "Meet the Spartans". I thought it was funny and its a movie I can watch several times. I liked the actors and everything. I especially liked the "yo mamma" part what ever you call it and the american idol part. Leonidas character was fun to watch, its funny how he talks. While I enjoyed this movie, I don't like Scary Movie, the epic movie, or the Superhero movie. This one was stupid as well but funny.
Rating:  - Great Parody, Cast Commentary one of the best
Would give this a 3.5, but can't due that with the little star rating, so I rounded up and gave it a 4.
This was lot funnier than expected given the reviews I had seen. Great job by the cast not taking themselves too seriously. Definitely worth the rent. I watched this in Blu-Ray.
The commentary by the cast is actually pretty funny, also. This commentary is one that actually matters to the viewer as it's not the director or some 3rd string actor giving the commentary. Sean Macguire, Kevin Sorbo, Nicole Parker (recurring character roles) all do a great in keeping this DVD part fun too.
Rating: - Better than What People Say...
This is better than what people say. Sure it isn't the greatest movie. It is WAY better then Date,Epic,and Disaster Movie. But not as good as Scary,And Superhero Movie,though. Some jokes hit hard and some miss way off. I you love spoofs you'll probably love this movie.
Rating:  - Meet the Sparse Humorous Movie!
Remember when the only "spoofs" & "parodies" could only be found in the pages of MAD Magazine, Mel Brooks' Movies, and the Zucker Bros Movies? It seems to be all common place these days. That's not a bad thing, but when it's done wrong, it hurts the genre. MEET THE SPARTANS is definitely in the category of a spoof gone wrong. This reviewer didn't laugh once during the course of the film and it was very painful to watch. Even the obligatory cameo of Carmen Electra couldn't hold this reviewer's attention span. Pretty much a "shot-per-shot" and "cinematographic-art-direction" copy of THE 300, this movie fails miserably with bad writing, bad jokes, bad acting, bad casting, bad everything! One of reasons for this reviewer's negativity towards the film is that the subject matter is not as accessible as the other movies to parody. Along with the other failure EPIC MOVIE, this has to be one of the worst movies, in any genre, in recent memory. One recent film spoof that fares better, and is more accessible than this "train wreck" is SUPERHERO MOVIE, which this reviewer gave more favorable review. Definitely a tax write-off for 20th Century Fox.
