Meet the Spartans

DVD Release Date: June 3rd, 2008
Starring: Diedrich Bader, Kevin Sorbo, Method Man, Ken Davitian, Jim Piddock, Sean Maguire, Greg Ellis, Crista Flanagan, Nicole Parker, Emily Wilson
Genre: Comedy

Extras: Unrated "Pit of Death" edition: Commentary by the cast and crew, "Know Your Spartans" pop culture set-top trivia game, gag reel, "Meet the Spartans: The Music" featurette, "Prepare for Thrusting" featurette, "Tour the Set With Ike Barinholtz."

Review: It now seems as if over the top parodies are increasing in popularity; the past two years alone has seen the release of "Date Movie," "Scary Movie 4," "Epic Movie," and "The Comebacks." We now have "Meet the Spartans," a vulgar, slapstick spoof that the characters openly admit is a cheap rip off of "300." It also takes grain pains to exploit reality TV, with "American Idol," "America's Next Top Model," and "Deal or No Deal" all being mocked at one point or another. Considering how disappointing "Scary Movie 4" and "Epic Movie" were, I was greatly surprised by how often I laughed during "Meet the Spartans." It might have something to do with "300," a film I thought was brilliant; "Meet the Spartans" is not brilliant at all, but it definitely turns "300" into an entertaining farce through its physical humor, a few gross-out visuals, and more gay jokes than you'll probably ever hear in your life...more

Also available in Pit Of Death Edition (Unrated) as well as Unrated Pit-of-Death Edition on Blu-ray (Fox).
