And just as with Monty Python, I could have done with less body fluid on the display and less fart jokes, too. The theatre was packed, roaring with laughter - and no-one walked.And yes, it very much follows in the tradition of Monty Python. Particularly Sean Maguire, Kevin Sorbo and Travis van Winkle offered a sight fully legitimating the entrance fee.BTW: I watched this in Berlin the very day it was released, in the main Berlinale cinema a mere two weeks after this most high browed of all international film festivals ended. Casting Ken Davitian and Kevin Sorbo was a stroke of genius: they are both delivering superbly, and Dietrich Bader as well as Phil Morris are coming pretty close to their league, as well.And last, but not least: painting abs and making fun of it might not be everyone's idea of style, but it's highly amusing, and the way those abs finally looked. Go figure! Sean Maguire is a bit overplaying, but by and large convincing - as is Carmen Electra. ĭirected? Well, it's spoofing 300 - what did you expect? Is it badly set? Well, it's spoofing 300 - what did you expect? Is it badly acted? Well - hold on a sec! Ummm, no, it isn't.

One can only hope it will produce more sequels than the Star Wars and the Police Academy series combined.
Meet the spartans full film movie#
As with "Weekend at Bernie's", you just got the feeling that one movie was not enough to fully explore the vast richness of ideas on display. If there was one film crying out for a sequel, it must surely be this one. The folks behind the popular Scary Movie, Epic Movie and Date Movie are back, taking even more comic potshots at hit movies like 300 and at. But shoot, I wasn't complaining :- All in all it was probably the greatest day of my life, and perhaps anyone's life.I was delighted to learn that there was a "Meet the Spartans 2". After a while the exertions of the previous 2 days took their toll and they fell asleep with their precious heads lolling into my unwashed groin. However I do remember my wife and my little boy found it so funny they were too astonished to laugh. I do remember bits of the trailer getting repeated over and over again, but that must have been the hallucinations as well.

For my own part, I was laughing and hollering too much at the little purple animals floating around in the cinema to notice much of the movie. But it was worth it, because when "Meet the Spartans" finally opened we were the only people in the cinema.And what a movie it was! My own memories are a little hazy given the addled state I was in after two days in the street.

For two days and nights we struggled on that lonely sidewalk against hunger and thirst and heat and exposure, and towards the end we had to resort to drinking our own urine. I knew we were going to experience a comedy masterpiece on par with "Diff'rent Strokes", "Australia's Funniest Home Videos" or Michael Jackson's cosmetic surgery.I set up camp outside the box office 2 days before tickets went on sale to be sure we got the first tickets accompanied, after a sound thrashing, by my wife and my little boy. Makers who did not need to advertise their greatness, as they could rely on their genius to advertise itself.
