It's been reviewed properly elsewhere, but MY capsule review:
1. Not great
2. LOVED it! So much fun!
For those of you who haven't heard about this B-grade, crowd-funded indie-blockbuster film, it's very briefly about Moon Nazis invading the Earth. It's 2018, and US President cough totallySarahPalin has sent a mission to the moon to boost her popularity. The astronauts quickly encounter a secret Nazi moon base, and the survivor is captured, precipitating some wildly improbable adventures and eventually a full-on Moon Nazi attack.
Yeah, it can't quite decide if it's slapstick, goofy political humour, dark political satire, an action film, or what. Surprisingly good at times (especially for a $6 million budget), painfully clunky at others, if you like Weird War 2/dieselpunk/wacky Nazis and don't take it too seriously it's definitely worth a watch. Also, the heroine Renate is just about the cutest little National Socialist since Helga from "Allo Allo".
Its ok, she doesn't KNOW she's a baddie, or that she looks eerily like Claire Danes c. 1996 |
Still waiting to grab a copy, thanks for the review.
