A no budget Turkish action film.
What can I say about a movie that lifts its action scenes from mismatched American movies (They flipped sequences from Diamonds are Forever so the words are backwards, uses the chase from Goldfinger, and I'm trying to figure out where the motorcycle sequences come from- also what car the hero drives changes in mid sequence), only pauses for two minutes at a time for drinks (no really), has a svelty pre-Xena wanna be in spandex as the kick ass heroine, has a beauty contest in the middle of it for no reason, a catfight for the affections of the hero- during which he sits and reads the paper, has more martial arts action then any ten Hong Kong films, loses its logic half way in- but keeps going,had bad visual effects (except for those it stole) and is in Turkish with no subtitles?
The only thing to say is five stars, one of the best schlock action films ever made.Pure dreck but worth three bags of popcorn and two gallons of soda. This is pure balls to the wall cinema which was some how released to paying customer-albiet in Turkey. Amazing, absolutely amazing...and really watchable even if you have no idea what they're saying (Maybe its better that way).
If you can go with the badness and surf it, this is one of the great cinema treasures of action moviedom. A movie to hunt down and enjoy repeatedly.
That doesn't sound like the film should be any good at all! I'll take your word for it that it works.
ReplyDeleteit works despite of itself. Its one of those so bad it's good films
