The greatest movie ever made..!
People are voting emotionally.
It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.
I saw this movie with my kids in 1990 while we were vacationing. I think it was on HBO. ll of us really enjoyed the film. I was able to acquire a VHS copy a couple of years later and in fact, I haven't run across a person that I have shown it to that didn't like it. It really works well on the small screen. The stars do a very credible job. Of course Alan Katz is really fantastic as Bob Malooga Looga Looga Looga Looga. but I would really like to see Lions Gate release it on DVD. Lions Gate owns all of Vestrons film library apparently. I've sent an email I urge others who liked the film to do so as well. Their email address is [email protected]
i found this movie to be a slapstick comedy that surpassed all my expectations.i would recommend this film to anyone who loves to watch a moviejust so they can laugh.when my good woman first told me about this movie,i thought no not for me.It didn't help that while trying to tell me about the film,she constantly laughed,so i didn't really find out anything of substance of the storyline.i eventually sat down and watched the film and laughed from start to finish.the storyline isn't important,as this film is just a good movie to make you laugh:)
Love this film! I was only 1 when it came out but we have it on video and me and my mum think it is one of the funniest films I have ever seen! nobody else who we have show it to likes it though! my favourite parts are: 'you can have any piece of chicken you like, a leg, wing?' '2 faces!'/ (singing)'Caaathy Malooga, Malooga Caaaaathy' at the top of his tower/when he stuffed his face with chocolate cake and it all gets stuck in his beard/when he is in the Psychiatrists sat on the bed thing and he can't lay backwards because of his hump and he just rolls off onto the floor!/camoola the rat 'mooka camoola'/ :oD i could go on forever! Classic Film!
This is one of the greatest films I remember from my childhood. I haven't been able to track down a copy in the UK, but still I search. Its a film which you can do impressions of with your friends for years to come. Its definatly worth seeing. Its humor is slightly repetative with the same jokes used a few times, but still, it works. Definately see this movie. It wasnt made to win any Oscars, but it does its trick to give you a laugh with your friends and make you feel good for a few hours :)
