301, La Légende de Superplus Maximus

Don't waste your time on this. I thought that maybe because this is a Lampoon movie it would be at least funny and watchable. Boy was i wrong. The jokes are REALLY lame, it does parody some of the scenes from troy and 300 but it's mostly done with no taste and could have been done so much better. Ultimately if you are into the normal toilet humor and sex jokes then this will maybe entertain you. But even as a parody movie it totally blows. To think that they are the people who once made Animal House. It's a total disgrace how bad this is.

I have to admit, I was surprised that this movie wasn't as bad I thought it would be. Not that it is really good either, but it has some nice acting power behind it (not really looking at Ms. Lokken though). There's also a lot of nudity in it, just in case you were wondering. And the movie takes cues from many films of the recent past, including 300, but also Troy and the Spartacus TV show. The jokes are hit and miss mostly, but they are one thing: not really intelligent. And they don't have to be. This being just a spoof of one genre, it obviously would not want to expand on that. Still if you like "stupid jokes" and remarks, there are worse movies to watch than this

While watching it I was a little put off by the non-historic mix of 300 & Troy - but knowing its N.L. I didn't expect a historical documentary, unlike 300 and Troy with their stupid Kung Fu Hoplites in skirts (if your going to do a Kung Fu movie do it & don't pretend it in ancient Europe! unless it tongue in cheek) which this makes fun of). Put history aside & the jokes were funny. The acting is great. The cinematography is good. The girls are hot. What more do you need? (unless you a pretentious snob - then what are you doing watching N.L.?) The last scene puts it all in prospective (won't spoil it for you it just makes it all make sense). great spoof movie with a great reason for the spoofs (& deserving targets)!

National Lampoon,  "sword and sandal" movie. A parody mixture of 300, Gladiator and Troy to name a few while much better than Meet the Spartans it hasn't the original -in its own world setting - and is more spoof than comedy. Although packed with gags and crudeness it lacks the edge, wit and humorous balance of the likes of Your Highness. The leads including The Three Stooges (2012) Will Sasso and supporting cast are entertaining enough, rip Torn lights up the screen and lovely  Kristanna Loken is a saving grace. With *, butts and lots of cursing  teens will probably eat The Legend of Awesomest Maximus up. It's one of the better spoofs but by no means great.

This movie does have some Dirty humors & a mix parody. While i have stopped watching Spoof/comedy based movie for a long time. And the reason is they over do it now a days. I remember great movies like airplane etc & then from year 2000 onward they started to make silly & dumb parody movies that i think was such a waste of time. But when i checked out this one, i had to finish it. It is okay for this genre of movies. I will ask my friends to come over and have a look together,just like the old days. So guys if you are thinking to pass time with your friends & laugh your *** off then have a look for once. And i can assure you guys that you will have a great time. But if you are a hard critics who watch out every scene in detail then this one is not for you.

What can I say about this film? It is crude, juvenile, features countless topless women... it makes fun of homosexuals, women, Blacks, Jews, the mentally handicapped... the humor revolves around male genitalia constantly... It is as politically incorrect as you can probably get these days. All that aside, it has some redeeming moments. I am not saying run out and see it. No. I do not want to be held responsible for that. In fact, I would urge you to not see it. It really is one of the final squeals of the National Lampoon legacy. (How you go from making Chevy Chase's finest films to disposable fart jokes is beyond me.) I spoke with Kristanna Loken (who plays Hotessa) about the film, and she took on the film after reading the script and finding it humorous. While I can see the humor (I admit I laughed a few times), I have to say this will not go down as one of Loken's more memorable roles. If you are a fan of hers, you can probably skip this. If you find her attractive and want to see her with Sophie Monk, then you might be more interested. In the end, I have to say this film was slightly better than I expected. But I expected the worst, so that means nothing.

Finally a fellow compatriot of mine (I mean Jason Burinescu, a romanian guy) took the romanian humour wright into America. We romanians loves very much homosexual and bitch womens who sold they body on every foreign passport. Because we, the romanian male, are just dumb as Maximus Awesomest is! I hope with the contribution of all romanians movie spectators, the final rating to increase from 4 to 10 as it should deserve this awesomest production! Obsviesly the Troy movie from 2003 was great, no doubt of it, but a parody of the incredible events from the past, too much incredible, deserve e parody movie! Anyway, the horrific moral aspects from Tory were very much diluted in exchange of an exaggerated romantism! So a parody remake can bring by parody itself, the realism which was mist in the Troy! And of course, the realism being so cruel, he must be packaged into humour, even if the humour is a little obscen!

I think there are either a lot of depressed people writing reviews or that one guy in the comedy show audience who just refuses to laugh , this is the second or third movie i have watched that had bad reviews on IMDb, that turned out to be really enjoyable I watch a lot of comedy movies and this one -awesomest maximus -- is definitely funnier than most , i put it right up there with meet the spartans . and i haven't reviewed -305- yet but i watched what i could of it and consider this its review 305 is bad,- This movie has Will Sasso- he's funny , period . AND THE coach from dodgeball, patches o'whatsisname , he's a king in this movie . its just comedy , well worth a watch if you have a sense of humor

This movie came out 2011 and was ignored by many. Comedy was edgy and this was just a run of the mill movie. Sometimes times change people and sometimes people change with the time. This movie is for the former. It's a parody of various movies. It's Braveheart, 300, Troy with a twist. It was ho hum, but in an era that desperately needs comedy. Awesomest Maximus is what the world needs. Awesomest Maximus is about Helen of Troy being stowed away. This event triggers war. This is a very funny, offensive,, over the top, get a few beers wth buddies, type of movie. You get a lot of so bad comedy, it is good. You get childish antics that anyone can laugh at. It takes you back to a time before Social Justice and feminism were used as props to push agendas. If you are a man, and tired of the 2018 insanity, take a step back into time and enjoy manhood. Enjoy comedy that was tame back then, but grows on you, because you want to be offended. I give it a 9.5. Those who need a good laugh and need something offensive that pushes the envelop, this is it. Highly Recommended in 2018.
