Lack of good storyline.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Everyone Needs to see This Movie!! I've never in my life seen A musical so Awesome! It's so Ghastly Awesome! Johnny X is so Amazing! I love this Movie so Much. I loved the whole 50s retro style with Delinquency Johnny X and His Alien Gang saving Mankind. Best Sci fi comedy/Musical I've seen. I loved the singing and Dancing 50s style. The 50s style singing and Dancing made the movie so much more Awesome! And cool! I loved it! And loved that it was filmed Black and white it fit well with the 50s style. More fun and retro. Great storyline very well scripted! The Movie Kept me entertained and Laughing the whole Movie. I want to Join Johnny X and be A Ghastly one. Johnny X is Amazing! Watch this Movie!

This movie has great possibility, good directing, well-matched casting, and a campy fun theme song. The ideas, locales, retro feel, editing, and all else were pretty darn good too. But like most of the others have pointed out, the SCRIPT.If we are too assume a faithful translation, then we get a roller coaster of a plot with quite a few holes. And a movie that in the end does not feel certain of what it is. Is it a father/son film? Is it a period comedy musical? Is it a science fiction film with all of this rolled into one? There seems to be almost 5 to 10 minute chapters where the whole tone of the film shifts from serious to funny, cheese to drama, all on a flip of a fade-out.I do not want to get down on the guys who brought us this, it was really good for a first attempt. But might I make a few suggestions? Why is the second-rate group member not considered equal and eventually goes on a rampage? What is "The Pill", and what does it do? Why did Johnny almost out of nowhere like the Soda Jerk? (Its hinted at, but just not brought over the edge of belief.) And while the ending does provide a clean break to possible love triangle, it still feels somewhat somewhat flat. The last minute choice at the ending for Johnny makes sense though, and I would like to see Keenan play that character in a possible future escapade. Please just iron out the overall feel of any future scripts and I will happily buy that DVD.

This is a unique kind of a movie, no question there. The genre is more or less unclassifiable.Let's get to the point. For all the ways I wanted this movie to be great, it's so-so at best. It's disorganized and inconsistent.But the movie has one high point: De Anna Joy Brooks. She plays "Bliss", a member of the Ghastly Gang from another world, sent to earth as punishment or perhaps redemption. Brooks literally steals the movie with one song and dance routine, "These Lips That Never Lie." She is positively dripping with personality and suave. I wish I could say that about the rest of the cast, but De Anna is the only one who's clearly overqualified for this movie.Overall, I'd say skip this movie. But don't miss De Anna's dance number, perhaps on YouTube, etc. I've watched it a dozen times and never tire of it.

This movie is plain "Horrible". I have never seen such a bunch of flamboyant, Pansy acting grown men flopping around the big screen as I did here. The storyline made NO sense, the characters sang about just "anything" whimsical and the acting was exaggerated. TO AN EXTREME.Watching this movie reminded me of a director trying TOO hard to bring back a silly, immature time of his youth with no sensibility and an irresponsible approach at cinema of the past.Lets take a look at the casting!! It's like he got them from a list of his top 10 favorite movies when he was a kid, negligent at the fact whether they fit the role properly or not. S T U P I D .Is a movie that was filmed in Black & White supposedly an art sensation? Think again. This Car crash of a flick ( and supposed worst investment laugh riot within the industry) rivals Plan 9 from outer space.It should be categorized as a "Disaster movie" instead of a musical for OBVIOUS REASONS!
