Just perfect...

Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.

Manborg feels you're watching the cut scenes from a video game more than you're watching a movie. It's fun, but it feels like there was so much work put into something which inevitably ends up as a lark. Maybe I'm just a party pooper. Or maybe I like when movies are funny because they are just weird or foreign, versus the forced humor that comes when you make a parody or a genre already rife with unintended humor.That said, this is a real CGI achievement — just watch the extras to see how much of the world was created for the film. Is it a good movie? Well, it's more like an 11-minute Adult Swim show played out for an hour. There's some goofy humor and some slap happy action. That said — going back to my eleven-year-old self, then my answer would be, "Yes, this movie is awesome."

I had expected this to be low budget, sure, but I was nowhere prepared for the atrocity that this movie turned out to be. The movie was made in 2011, but it had a very 1980s touch to it, with special effects from the 1970s. It was such an abominable eyesore to witness.This movie is hopefully a spoof on other low budget movies, because it like like one big massive farce. If it wasn't, then I don't even know where to start.The story in this movie was as to be expected. Earth is at war with Hell. Yes! Hell! And Earth is losing. A soldier is brought back to life as a cyborg in the future to help mankind battle the forces of Hell.The effects were so horribly bad that you constantly sit there laughing and shaking your head in disbelief. Oddly enough, the level of badness just keeps you wanting to see more. I stuck with this movie to the end just to see how much more worse things could be. I think around 90% of the movie was filmed in front of a green screen.The characters in the movie were just as bad as the effects. They looked like a mixture of pre-Mortal Kombat and a rockshow gone bad. The manborg looked like something dished up in an arts and crafts class. #1 man was a poor Liu Kang clone, and his awful dubbed speech was equally bad. The Justice character looked like Billy Idol after having lost his fame and fortune. However, what the movie had working for it was the Nazi-like demonic creatures. There were some pretty good make-up and designs here.As for the dialogue, well lets just say it matched the rest of the movie. Enough said.It should be said that everything is just so bad on every level, that the movie is actually worth sticking around for to the very end. There are worse movies available, but "Manborg" does a great job at trying to get to the top ten list of worst movies ever.

this is epic, its everything in the VHS /early 90s era of film and displayed brilliantly, this film is inspirational!. the characters are constructed very well,the Asian character(number one man) dubbed and dressed like lui kang!, the cocky character straight out of the lost boys and the beautiful Minna.. a bad ass.! the dialog is phenomenal and is guaranteed to make you laugh over and over,the baron steels the show! the visuals are brilliant ranging from well executed green screen and some sort of stop motion.. think of ed 209 from robocop,this is how most of the unearthly characters move and to great effect..manborg himself is epic,his scene with doctor Scorpius is my favorite of the movie.please watch with a light heart and enjoy and appreciate just what the makers have achieved

It doesn't try to be anything but what it is which is a high cheese fun movie to watch.There no i am a serious actor doing Shakespeare moments where you can see the others actors wincing and thinking pay me so i can get away from this guy.It was friends making a low budget movie that entertaining to watch.Jeremy Gillespie had a surprisingly good sense of comedic timing as the love struck baron.Think low budget,decent affects but not industrially lights and magic and people who enjoy what they are doing.Seriously this is miles ahead of rob zombie's movies and had budgets and big name actors. Sorry Rob but to his credit he has gotten better.
