Movie Review: Spartan

http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/spartan/

Are you kidding me? What a horrendous schlock-fest. Wooden dialogue,
terrible production, garbage plot. I've seen 70s pornos with better
plots!

And did they even consider hiring a military advisor? How much could
haircuts and uniforms that fit the actors (who are supposed to be
playing characters in the military) possibly cost? Hell, a Cub Scout
den mother or mailman could have done a better job than whatever idiot
they hired and didn't listen to!

And a 40-ish year old Master Gunnery Sergeant played by Val Kilmer?
All the ones I ever ran into looked like 100-year-old pieces of boiled
leather that were chewed on and crapped out by a pack of bulldogs.

I tried to find a portion of this that was worth watching, but I had
no luck. This film needs to be excised from existence.

Val must have really needed the money.

F-
