Oh Dear....

Initially I was quite excited about this. I like spoof films and I like to think of myself having a good sense of humour. This film is by far the worst spoof I have ever seen. Unfortunately the genuinly funny bits are outweighed by cringeworthy jokes at a ratio of about 100:1. The jokes are predictable, unfunny and they go on and on and on withthe homoerotic jokes. I could have probably come up with better jokes! Im so glad I didnt buy it otherwise I would have wasted my hard earned cash and 1hr of my life. Yes thats right, Im pretty sure it lasts just over an hour! The one thing worth watching in the film is the woman..thats pretty much it..
Save your money, time and sanity and buy a well made spoof that lasts more than an hour!!

Funny if you're into this sort of stuff but probably not worth buying

So a friend showed me this film and it's pretty funny, but you need to have seen 300 and be into this kind of comedy - it's almost all cheesy parody. Anyways, I'd say it's worth checking out if you saw 300 and like all the spoofs that are out on the net, but I wouldn't say its worth buying, especially on blu ray since some of the shots are pretty grainy to begin with.
Absolutely terrible

My God, when are these unfunny, repetitive spoof films going to stop?! In recent years we've been given four Scary Movie films, Epic Movie, Not Another Teen Movie, Superhero Movie, Date Movie and soon Disaster Movie and the "quality" just seems to be getting worse with each one and the releases are become much more frequent and `Meet The Spartans' is by far the worst of the lot. This is basically just a movie insulting the intelligence of anyone who watches it, using the setting of 300 to freely pour out one homophobic joke after the next with other completely lame parodies that just tire after literally seconds. I borrowed this film from someone who had a region 1 release and turned it off after about half an hour as I just couldn't take it anymore.
Do yourself a favour and avoid any of the movies in this series as they are all truly awful and I can't understand how these films even get released and more scarily - how the hell did this film ever get to no 1 at the box-office!!!???!!!! I think if we could give minus scores on Amazon, there wouldn't be enough on the page to rate this steaming pile. Avoid!
