Trivia:

Goofs:

Continuity: When the Spartans stop to "replenish" their electrolytes, Sonio is tossed a bottle of "red" Gatorade. However, when they pan back to him after showing a couple of the other warriors, the Gatorade in Sonio's bottle is now "blue".

Quotes:

Traitoro: Stop kicking people into the pit of death! Really!

Horrible, I hated it!!!

This was one of the worst films I can say I have ever seen in my lifetime!!!

The spoofs were corny and stupid and the movie was like an hour long.

The movie is like an hour of hell.

I hope they never make a movie this bad again!!!

I also would like to see a really good spoof movie in the future... i really enjoyed scary movie 1 and 2.

One way to solve the problem is to get the Wayans bros. back into spoofing too.

Overall .5 out of 10 (yes .5)

get ready for a horrible ride of spoofs!!
