Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

If you thought MEET THE SPARTANS was the worst 300 spoof out there, you haven't seen 305, an even cheaper and much, much lamer rip-off. The story sees five chubby guys standing in front of a green screen throughout, sharing supposedly comic banter that'll have you wanting to pierce your ear drums within minutes of this inanity beginning. The plot is supposedly about five extra Spartans tasked with defending a goat path against the enemy. It's terrible, truly terrible, indescribably so in fact.

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

With Hollywood cranking out American Pie 10 or Eurotrip meets Harold and Kumar a movie comes around with genuine humor and laugh out loud moments! In the vein of Mel Brooks, David Zucker, Christopher Guest, Jared Hess, and Monty Python the Holechek brothers craft a hilarious tale with a no name cast. Having no budget and being propelled into a feature length because of YouTube popularity gives it more of a reason to check it out. Not to mention it has travel to the Palm Beach, Another Hole in the Head, Indie Spirit, and Newport beach film festivals!This is the little film that could and deserves to be in your DVD collection! If you want a laugh to the point you have the pause the movie then this is your ticket. Rent/Buy it tonight!

The film itself, '305,' is not a bad concept. It might've even gotten a bit more of budget had the other '300' spoof 'Meet the Spartans' not been released months prior.It's done as a mockumentary-style film, like 'The Office' (complete with Michael, Dwight, and Jim knockoffs), of the five misfit guards of the 300 Spartan army that fought the Persians (as we saw '300' and other films). These five (hence the '305') didn't make the cut for the first 300, as they're either overweight, or blind, or scrawny; so, they're sent off ('five miles in the opposite direction,' as one of the five says) on simple & stupid errands and duties, like protecting some goats.Sounds like it could be really funny, right? Well, it wasn't. Yeah, at first, there were some laughs from the sheer ridiculousness of the idea. . . but, it didn't amount to much more than a few chuckles throughout.As a play, it might've worked well. As a film. . . it simply was not worth it.Final Verdict: 4/10
