Did you people see the same film I saw?
... View MoreIt's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

... View MoreJohn DeBello provides us one final Killer Tomato movie and honestly that's probably a good thing.Professor Gangreen and his incompetent lacky Igor have one more shot at world domination, this time involving an ancient prophecy and the king of France.Much like the 3rd film there are laughs to be had but most is purile filler and the charm of the first film is thoroughly gone.John Astin is great once again but the novelty is beyond being worn thin and as much as I think the franchise accomplished something it's definitely best that this film be it's death rattle.Essential viewing for fans of the series, but as a standalone film this has very little to offer.The Good: Brilliant opening credits jokes The Bad: Generally very stale Things I Learnt From This Movie: Singing tomatoes are still better than 90% of the UK top 40 Bra's make great parachutes for fluffy talking tomatoes....wait, what? The french armies ammunition of choice are baguettes The Hunchback of Notre Dame isn't 100% certain but he has a hunch
... View MoreWhat made the original Killer Tomatoes fun was it was made by people with no budget who were just being wacky for a couple of days...This was something with a budget, but it just wasn't as much fun. John Astin of Adams Family fame is actually making an effort here to be comedic, but he is supported by lame actors, cheap special effects and unfunny gags.The plot. Dr. Gangrene (Astin) escapes from a French prison and decides he is going to put a pretender on the throne of France... The hero, his French girlfriend and the Gizmo-like "Fuzzy Tomato" decide they are going to stop him...Forgettable Direct to Video nonsense...
... View MoreI felt this movie, though strongly supported by the uber talented Skippy, who, contrary to the credits, has no real name, he's only Skippy, was just poorly thought out. For instance, how would a tomato put on an eye patch? It's oversights like that that make this movie suffer.On the other hand, we have John Astin, father of Sean Astin, star of Rudy. Just the name makes me laugh. Rudy. It's about a 20 lb boy who wants to play lacrosse for a community college. Or something very close to that but equally unimportant. However, if memory serves, no tomatoes present themselves, so I couldn't care less.Back to Skippy. Since I only watched about 10 minutes of this movie and then got distracted by a shiny object on the opposite of the room, there's obviously much that I can say. The plot revolves around a young Skippy who is employed in a desert town as a slave, when Liam Neeson comes to rescue him from Chinese aliens and androids. Oh, it's good times.In closing, I give Rudy a 5 out of 7 for heart, moxy and stick-to-itivness.
... View MoreKiller Tomatoes eat france is so terrible bad... you would die if you even took this movie seriously. It's about a bunch of mutated tomatoes who try to conquor France. If you like movies that try to be funny, completely fail in doing so, and thus becoming laughable, you'll like it
