Parody of Adventure - Meet the spartans

One of the best spoofs I've ever seen is the comical parody of the movie “300”. This movie titled “Meet the Spartans” spoofed the action packed adventure movie involving the Battle of Thermopylae "300" which came out in 2006. I’ve always liked the character played by Gerald Butler as King Leonidas, the ruler of Sparta, and descendant of Achilles.

This movie stole the laughter out of me, and kudos to Sean Maguire who took the lead role in the movie and was humorous to the core. At the beginning, the babies of Sparta are being inspected to be fit for battle and survival, when the immediately select Leonidas baby who has 6-pack abs and a beard!!! After killing a giant penguin Gerald Butler takes over the empire of Sparta.

Similar to the movie 300, a Persian messenger visits them to present Xerxes' demanding Sparta's submission. Leonidas kicks the messenger into "The Pit of Death". There are many occasions in this movie where crass comedy forces you to laugh. At the end of the movie, Gloria Gaynor's musical number I Will Survive is carried out on American Idol by every characters of the movie.

Watch out for "Azamat Bagatov" Ken Davitian playing the role of Xerxes, and that shows the level of humor involved. This movie, I feel, must have got its inspiration from Vijay TV’s Lollu Sabha and every viewer will commend on the class performance of the actors. Go watch the movie guys, or at least download them!!
