this movie sucked a.s.s!!!!!!!!!

it was lame, it tried too hard to be funny and didnt work...i did not crack up once or even smirk....the only parts that i thought were done well was when they ripped off Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt and Britney Spears, but i didnt even smile at that, i just wished they used those scenes in a funnier movie...

this movie was short but i still struggled to get through it...i will never watch this movie again, it should burn in hell!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very much in a Brit humour style????!!!! ARE YOU *beep* NUTS?!! *beep* me I'm laughing out loud at what a stupid comment that is. Mate, this is about as far from British comedy as you get. Like literally the extreme opposite. Brit humour (or English humour as it's more traditionally referred to) is wry, subtle and sarcastic. This was outrageous, painfully bad in-your-face toilet humour. This is the very worst of American humour.

Go to the loo, 'cause all the *beep*'s coming out your mouth instead of your a-hole...

Im one of teh very few who actually found this funny, the gross out humour,the Persian Emissary walking hand in hand with Leonidas,then getting off with Electra,then one by one getting kicked into the "pit of Death" lol...I mean c'mon if you don't find humour like this funny then you do have unresolved issue when you were a kid! lol

I also liked the Britney Spears spoof with her baby Booby feeding and singing to it with that Spears heavy breathing style hahaha....

Well good for you that you found it funny, but it's still not Brit humour. Brit humour requires intelligence to create. Good American humour requires intelligence too, unfortunately all the retarded humour still gets through. At least IMDb is here to thrash the hell out of it with the public rating system.

Obviously the writers of this film had unresolved issues. i mean, not even if you were abnormally drunk and/or under the influence of drugs could you write crap like this!

Brits have had their share of toilet humor. I submit Benny Hill and The Young Ones as evidence.

Really? Worst film you ever saw. Well, my next one will be better. Hello. Hello.

Benny Hill... Meet The Spartans. Gives the expression 'far cry' a whole new meaning.

It wasn't a comparison bewteen MTS and BH. I'm just saying some British humor is low brow. I'll throw AB FAB in there too.

But Egglish toilet humour still has the same black-comedy veins running through it... but I accept your point, there is a range of genres to every nation's perception of comedy.

I agree. This movie wasn't funny. It resembles what a bunch of twelve year old kids might do. You know, like they were copying skits off of really bad Saturday Night Live episodes and performing them in skits for Mom and Dad and co. And then, you know, everybody applauds them for being "creative"-SRC

Maybe it's because I didn't have to pay for it but I find myself gigglig at some parts. Like the dance off and a lot of what fake Leonidas says and does. I do think some of the jokes go on too long and that kills the humor.

Tis a very funny film.

Elements of brit humour throughout the flick, I've watched it numerous times.

Disaster movie I stopped watching after 3 minutes.

[–] CQTiger 16 years ago

I managed the first 10 mins then realized my time was more important then watching this crap. It must have been made on a shoestring budget. My school play had better sets.Embarrassing for anyone who would put there name to it.Glad I didn't pay to see it.

No...I think you'd have to have suffered severe brain damage first to find this funny. I'd like to know what elements of Brit humor were present in this film.

I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than have to have a frontal lobotomy.

"Lol ithink you have to see 300 first to find this funny..."

"No...I think you'd have to have suffered severe brain damage first to find this funny."

HAHAHA.. that was going to be my response. Good stuff.

Still no idea why people keep saying this is Brit humour. It's the complete opposite. Only the US can churn out drivel such as this.

Please kill yourself. Brit humour? WTF? Are you a freaking imbecile? Seriously.
If you state this movie as funny you have to have an IQ of under 60, but if you find it funny AND consider it to be British humour, you probably have an IQ less than a freaking banana.

It was pretty abysmal, I felt dirty watching it . I couldn't imagine watching it with other people (especially in a cinema). Even though almost everything made me cringe or got nothing out of me there were some funny bits every now and then.

I find you calling this 'Brit' humour offensive.

Us brits have more taste than this.

This film is tasteless, stupid, nonsensical and utterly pathetic. And dont think im a 'spoof' hater either...i appreciate GOOD spoofs, like airplane!

I think its AMERICANIZED humour.

reply

[–] TaRaNRoD (1579) 7 years ago

"i appreciate GOOD spoofs, like airplane!"

Exactly. Or even Don't be a Menace to South Central While Drinking your Juice in the Hood was really funny... And it did have some toilet humoir but at least there were funny elements throughout the whole movie.

[–] pmdawn 16 years ago

I agree that it was hilarious, but not that it's Brit humour style.

I don't know why this movie gets so much hate; even in this "spoof movies" series they've been making, this is the best by far.
