Product Description
Leonidas leads a dozen fighters against the Persians, Ghost Rider, some Transformers, and Paris Hilton.
Amazon.com
With Meet the Spartans, the creators of Date Movie lampoon penguins, Paris Hilton, American Idol, Britney Spears, Dancing with the Stars, Stomp the Yard, Brangelina, Lindsay Lohan, product placement, Sylvester Stallone, Transformers, and pretty much every other obvious target that's emerged since they made their last flick, Epic Movie. The main subject of mockery is 300, the visual-effects laden Greek warrior movie, the relentless homoeroticism of which is not-so-subtly pointed out with a mixture of scatology, phallic humor, painted-on six-pack abs, disco songs, blows to the groin, and spitting--lots and lots and lots of spitting. There's nothing remotely clever about Meet the Spartans, and even fans of pop-culture cuisinarts like Scary Movie may feel the genre is losing its oomph, but if you're looking for a shotgun blast of lowbrow gags, this is it. Along for the ride are Sean Maguire (The Class), Kevin Sorbo (Hercules), Ken Davitian (Borat), Diedrich Bader (Napoleon Dynamite), and Carmen Electra, without whom no movie of this kind would be complete. The only person who emerges with any credibility is comedienne Nicole Parker (Mad TV), who does a pretty spot-on impression of Ellen DeGeneres. --Bret Fetzer

 Absolutely the Best Spoof movie I have ever seen! June 23, 2010
Pascal J. Grimaldi (Falls Church, VA USA)
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
Obviously some of these reviewers have no sense of hummer!
I have watched this movie five times or more and each time I am in pain from convulsing laughter!
People - get a sense of hummer! This movie is GRATE!
Can wait for the sequel or pre prequel or whatever!
High Satire October 2, 2009

I decided to check out why this movie has gotten so many one star ratings and with no presumptions I found myself actually being entertained by the satire, high and low burlesque and parody of many popular Hollywood movies, TV shows and personalities. The lampooning was spot-on for many star studded idols. If you approach this mock-epic with a light hearted openness you will find your reward in a few laughs and a "they shouldn't take themselves so seriously" a-ha.
No, you prepare for thrusting ... LOL February 7, 2010

Having read the bad reviews, I would normally avoid movies that suck.
This wasn't the case.
I popped the movie in after shovelling four feet of snow.
This movie is tongue in cheek, especially the nether regions.
Pop culture sucks & this movie squarely thrusts its hips at it with reckless abandon!
Kudos at mimicking others.
Into the pit with you, you wenches ... LOL
Singing and dancing! - June 27, 2008

3 out of 7 found this review helpful
I saw Meet the Spartans at the cinema, and bought the dvd because I wanted to see it again (thoroughly enjoyed it!), and because I wanted to see the extras. Not disappointed - have thoroughly enjoyed them as well, especially 'Prepare for thrusting' and 'Tour the Set with Ike Barinholtz'. They are funny in themselves but am also a Kevin Sorbo fan and they have Kevin in a lot! The audio commentary is very interesting - I like to know what the cast and crew have to say. The only thing is that I thought there would be more out-takes! There were none of the scene where they all went skipping off to war singing 'I will survive'!
funny enough for these types of movies September 18, 2008

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.
