Dummies should not bother watching this film.


The film's not for stupid people, so STAY AWAY !!

I gave it a clear 9 because Mamet always delivers

Thanks for the judgment but to me Spartan felt like a TV movie. Worth the watch on a rainy afternoon but definitely not a great movie. I gave it 6.5/10.
Redbelt was a bit better.GGGR too.

Very true. Most complaints that I've read from pro critics and regular people have been about the lack of Hollywood polish, action and requisite all questions answered happy ending. I like the fact it almost feels like a European drama

Actually it is, you have to be kind of stupid to believe that Kristen Bell would willingly become a prostitute (in America prior to being trafficed off to Dubai) despite having one of the most powerful and richest men in the city as a father, and that the trafficers never even considered that she was her despite being a public figure, especially afterwards when she was all over the news daily.

I'm gonna refuse you an offer you can't make
