Meet the Spartans

2008 • 83 minutes

About this movie

From 2 of the 6 writers of Scary Movie comes this tongue-in-cheek parody of the sword-and-sandal epics. The heroic Leonidas, armed with nothing but leather underwear and a cape, leads a ragtag group of 13 Spartans to defend their homeland against the invading Persians (whose ranks include Ghost Rider, Rocky Balboa, the Transformers, and a hunchbacked Paris Hilton). No one is safe when the Spartans take on the biggest icons in pop culture!

Ratings and reviews

Without question the worst film I've ever paid to see. The 'humour' is so pathetically childish, and just relies on pop culture references, without a hint of self-awareness either. I'm never getting that time or money back... don't make the same mistake!

This is without doubt one of the worst films in history. They take one unfunny pathetic joke and repeat it it over and over again until you feel the only option is to gauge your own eyes out so you don't have see anymore of this sad and pathetic excuse for a film. Do yourself a favour just avoid this film.

Absolutely not the best film around but it was never supposed to be. A smattering of other pop culture references and humourous overtones give a good giggle and childish fun.
