Meet the Spartans (2008)

Resources: IMDb * Wikipedia

Premise: A spoof of 300, with plenty of modern pop-culture references.

Directed by: Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer

Stars: Sean Maguire, Carmen Electra, Kevin Sorbo, Ken Davitian, Diedrich Bader

Review: Horrible. Not even a good parody along the lines of Not Another Teen Movie. Every once in a while the spoof can rise above the crap that is thrown into it, becoming something better. This is definitely not one of those times. Gags are over-used, parodies of real-life situations are ill-used; the film is simply not funny. Even if you cut out the majority of the scenes, leaving only those with Carmen Electra, and then watching it on mute, it still wouldn't be worth watching.

Avoid this movie at all costs if you want to keep your sanity.

Overall: Bad
