305

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

I beg anyone who doesn't plan on seeing this because of the low budget to reconsider. If one wished to compare 305 with other parodies of 300 one would probably find that this film comes out on top.

The special effects are of coarse not the typical FX that you would find in a high budget film but they most definitely help make the movie what it is... a silly, well made (taking the budget into account), and for lack of a better phrase, "stupidly funny" film.

Another tip for whomever is reading. If you like the TV show 'The Office' and it's quick and perfectly timed humor, you will find a lot in 305 to your liking and at least appreciate the film for what it is, a silly film that makes you laugh even though you know you shouldn't.

Just what the world needed! Another 300 parody, only this time, extra good!

This particular one is more funny and interesting than "Meet the Spartans" which was actually a very fine and comical parody of "300".

This version almost seems intent on being bad with the "five extra lost" Spartans being seriously un-Spartan-like and yes, even a special-ed kid would get that, Cause we want AND need more!! Don't avoid this. Everybody else can't just say no to this masterpiece.

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?

This movie surprised me a lot. At first glance I was like, hell no not another 300 parody and almost didn't download it but I was bored and decided to give it a go.

Cheesy effects, desert-dry humour and ridiculous setups but it all sort of works together. It has some big, genuine laughs and makes an attempt at telling jokes unlike other parodies of today. And, the girl in it is really hot, which definitely helps. Be warned: this is a low budget movie so don't expect a polished, studio production, but in some ways it works for this movie. Give it a chance, don't take it too seriously and you'll have a good time.
