Brainsbell The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.
Verity Robins Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Janis One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
ShellyM I first saw this movie in the late 80's and I loved it. It was different from the usual post-nuke movies of the era, because it was an action comedy/adventure, rather than the dark, dystopian offerings such as Stryker, Endgame, etc etc. It occured to me, that given current world events, it's a juxtaposition of The Handmaid's Tale, when men are subjugated by women and are used as labourer, kept as pets and 'seeders' Note: Lynka, the Tiara's bestie wasn't enjoying the actThe film takes place some 900 years after the 'Great Nuke', and everything was peachy keen for the women until one fateful day, a male child was born, and things went pear shaped from there. I loved the women's empowerment theme in this movie. Their slang was hilarious. I liked the characters too. Korvis and Veena, make a lovely couple, don't you think?A bloody great movie!
blackfordlaw This is perhaps my favorite bad movie of all time. Taste is out the window as rival tribes of overcoiffed women vie for the title of "Tiara." Men have been relegated to a few carefully restricted roles, like "seeder," and everyone speaks a highly idiomatic -- nay idiotic -- dialect. In this dialect, something that is really good is said to be "hot plastic" and all agreements are sealed by intoning "solemn swear." But one day a bright -- or rather, brighter -- male breaks out of his role and tries to become something more. Havoc ensues, language is mangled, "hot rocks" are hurled, and more need not be said. I just wish someone would release it on DVD. Take a chance -- this one is out there. Way out.
gridoon I don't know exactly what to make of this. It's pretty obvious that you're not supposed to take it seriously, yet for a comedy it has far too much mayhem and not enough laughs. It's all quite stupid, really, and you might be tempted to shut it off even before the opening credits have finished rolling. But it has at least one charming sequence (when the female leader discovers for the first time what a "man" is), and some of the final scenes, showing the aftermath of a devastating battle, with fields littered with corpses, have a surprising impact. Be warned, however, that the movie DOES feature a shaggy mutant called "Aargh The Awful"! (**)
anderst2 This movie is terrible, you can't even compare this with a Ed Wood movie, because Ed Wood didn't have money, this did, and Ed Wood didn't know what he was doing, Here they think they know.this might contain SPOILERSThis movie tries to be a big blockbuster, it looks like they were trying to make one, but with a cast as terrible as this, nothing can get right. All the women looks like they're from playboy, with tons of hairspray and makeup, and acting like s***, the men ain't any better. But as you watch the movie you can see the movie trying to get better, the makers trow in a (clearly a Chewbacca ripoff) troll like character, and you'll laugh your ass off.This movie ripsoff "Planet of the Apes" (1968) big time, exspecially with the nuclear sone, and finding thing from the past. Everything you see in here is made with the best intentions, but without talent.The terrible editing of the picture makes the action scenes look stupid, at the end battle, look for the guy who is going to jump on a female rider, the horse is miles away before he jumps, and suddenly he hits her.I give this as a movie 1/10, but you'll laugh all the time, and as a turky this is a 10/10. This is so bad it don't qualify for the Razzie Awards.
