While this film could have been campy good fun, about halfway through it turned into a repetitious yawner. The characters were interesting, the sets creative, the acting well-done on all aspects. It was zany, over-the-top, and schlocky, which is exactly what would be expected of a title such as this.
But after a bit it became repetitive, losing its initial thrust and winding up making not much real sense at all. I'm sure some folks got the "inner meaning" of the film, but in truth there was no inner meaning. It was just a bunch of stuff thrown together and anything anyone takes away from this is a purely personal interpretation of experience.
Which is fine, except I found myself less-than-impressed when it came time for the closing credits... which means that for me the film failed. I'm not a big fan of fight scene after fight scene... which is what this film devolved into. So I give it a mediocre rating of 5. Neither good nor bad. Not enough schlock, camp and humor to be great.
