Meet the Spartans

January 24, 2008· 1h 24m
Cinemagraphs Score4.0

The heroic Leonidas, armed with nothing but leather underwear and a cape, leads a ragtag group of thirteen Spartans to defend their homeland against the invading Persians (whose ranks include Ghost Rider, Rocky Balboa, the Transformers, and a hunchbacked Paris Hilton). No one is safe when the Spartans take on the biggest icons in pop culture!

Biggest Swing

The film drops sharply during the celebrity cameo pit sequence before recovering somewhat with Paris Hilton's betrayal subplot.

Meet the Spartans maintains consistently low audience sentiment throughout, with brief peaks when individual performances or concepts show promise. The film's reliance on lazy pop culture references and telegraphed jokes creates a steady decline in viewer engagement, culminating in a chaotic finale that epitomizes everything critics found wrong with the spoof genre approach.
