Low budget surprise

Just so you know, I liked "300" and loved "Meet The Spartans". And
still, when I came across this one, I thought "Man, this is going to be
the worst movie ever".And that's the surprise: although there's minimal money and cast, these
are set aside for a "spin-off" of sorts - about 5 Spartans that weren't
in "300". From then on, it's not just a spoof, but a whole new story of
its own.And, yes, funny. Maybe because everything is so damn absurd. It's shot
in a mockumentary mode, and that adds to the silliness of everything.
It's not for everyone's tastes though. If you don't like silly comedies
that don't take anything seriously you won't like this.So if you don't mind the VERY low budget, you might find some
unexpected laughs in here. I think they did a pretty good job.6/10

30 minutes of my life….wasted!

i'm sorry but i have truly felt that i have wasted 30 minutes of my
life plus $3.50 renting this movie. after that 30 minutes, i couldn't
continue on watching it. the humors in this movie are very simple, good
laugh for the little kids, maybe this movie is designed for the little
kid. the 300 spartan died because 5 spartan fail to guard the goat
pass? then they went off and open up a restaurant? still wearing their
spartan uniform while hiding their identity? and then went back around
to defeat the whole Persian army? i am confused. how much does it cost
to make that movie again? 50k? i think i can do better with my digital
camera. maybe a little editing, but what IS the point of this movie?

The office Spartans

305 tells the story of the 5 misfit Spartans who didn't make the cut
due to them being too fat, blind, or just idiots. When they get a
little overzealous and run off to fight some Persians, leaving the goat
road they were tasked to watch unattended, the Persians make short work
of the 300 and the 5 misfits are on the run. This spoof of both "300"
as well as "the Office" was funny enough, for the most part, and I
enjoyed it immensely more than the completely cinematic excrement that
was "Meet the Spartans" despite the extremely low-budget of this film.
Hey here's an idea, give the makers of THIS film $30,000,000 and let
the extremely untalented duo of Friedberg and Seltzer have to scrounge
up pocket change for Their so-called 'films' My Grade: B- DVD Extras: 2 Commentaries (one for the actors & one for the
directors); the original 305 short; A making of; 'the lost interviews';
3 deleted scenes; Cutting Room Floor; On the Road with the 305;Visual
Effects Featurette; and Trailers for "Moola", "Niagars Motel", "Raising
Genius", & "See this movie"
