PHP - Best way to make an HTML version of PHP pages?

So we have this dilemma. We want the search engines to see our individual review pages, and we don't think the spiders are all reaching them. I don't really know the best way to make sure this is happening, I'd like to customize each review page with keywords, titles, etc..

The only way I can think of without getting a dedicated server to do that empty directory trick, is to make a simple link list in an basic HTML page for the spiders.. Then links to a static copy of the reviews in HTML format.. If the user clicked anything they'd see the PHP, and most of the times our reviews remain static, unless a user posts a comment or a rating.. Sooo, we could do it once manually, but we'd like to do it regularly to keep the HTML pages updated with a more current version from our PHP driven pages..

Is that too fuckin ass backwards to even attempt? is there some kind of program that would parse the HTML including SQL queries and save it in a static HTML document? ;)

Ass. Backwards.
