Meet the Spartans

Awuuh! Awuuh!

Let me start off by saying Meet the Spartans did a pretty decent job working its comedy into my veins. Although a lot of critics would have loved to just massacre this movie because they’d find it dreadfully unfunny, I on the other hand beg to differ. I knew from the get go what I was going into when the sound of clashing thunder and lightning thrall the beginning of this movie. Awful choice to do a Shrek the third spoof so let me just get that unfunny introduction out the way, and trust me it would be smooth sailing from there on. The idea of spoofing an enormous name such as 300 is not as easy as it sounds. First we have to find someone who looks good in a leather diaper, and has a huge rock solid body. Painted abs check, Leonidas beard check and the most important thing of all is he has to be someone who can do that “This is Spartan” growl. Sean Maguire did absolutely justice to his version of a sort of gay’ish buff leader of the Spartans. I laugh my jaw off from almost everything, I would have loved to give spoilers out but I would just leave them to the viewers who would dare to see this. For the record this is not like Epic Movie, there’s even no comparison. There are a bit few unfunny jokes but who gives a… Overall it was decently funny and I would just like to give a warning to those who would see this “the jokes are not for everyone”.
