In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
... View MoreIt is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.
... View MoreThrough painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
... View MoreThere's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
... View MoreThe film takes place on another planet, but has a western theme. There are bad guys who want to take over the town for a mineral while there are those that oppose them. The film is very cheesy and campy and gets its humor from the era commercials and previous roles of the actors. Julie Newmar who once played Catwoman was Miss Kitty. George Takei has lines from STAR TREK such as "Great Scottie" and "Jim, Beam me up." Carel Struycken who played Lurch, plays an undertaker. A couple of the actors were in the TV series SUPER FORCE where the main character was Zach Stone. In this film the main character is Zack Stone. It is a film you may need to watch twice to get all of the humor.Guide: No F-bombs, sex. or nudity. Super Campy and cheesy.
... View MoreThey just don't make em like Oblivion anymore. This movie is so bad that it's good. It's like watching a movie that was supposed to be serious but halfway through they decided it should be a comedy. There are some really great lines in here that should not be missed. "Not man enough? or maybe you're too much man, too much... HU-man?" or the s**t a brick in your pants funny "associ-whats?" line. Or the bingo during the funeral "B9!" Oh man, I'm cracking up right now writing this. And of course the best part is that it ends with "to be continued" and a hilarious preview of the sequel. Anyways, if you want to see a really unintentionally funny movie with microphones and ads for other movies blatantly in several shots then see this now, i concur with the beer suggestion of these other guys too. Oblivion, really great movie, watch it.
... View MoreFun-tastic sf-western, full of gags, thanks to a sassy script from Peter David: the son of a great marshall of the law is forced against his will to take the star from the deceased father and fight against a bunch of criminals, lead by a lizardman call Red-Eye. I think this is the only movie where you may find a Wishmaster, a Catwoman, a Sulu, a Lurch...
... View MoreOblivion is a low-budget cheesy space-western with so many in-jokes and running gags and stereotypes that it has twice been the cornerstone of video parties at my place!The story is coherent-but-flimsy. The real fun is in the bizarre special-effects, the character references, the costumes, etc.To enjoy this movie, make sure you know what the major players have done before. Keep it in mind. Listen to every word. Have half-a-dozen other people there. With lots of snacks or beer.Oh, and the plot? Who cares. Much like a Batman or Addam's Family movie (for several reasons, both), this movie is about look, feel, and fun. Plot is almost incidental.
