I like it for what it is. It's a LSD trip.
It's offensive to be offensive like you have everything that's not okay to film it's in there it's pretty freaking crazy. Like they must have just survey the most sadistic people they know for ideas and said yes to all of em.
I mean i loved it for what it is, it's just that like if you think there's a deeper meaning to any of this you are mistaken. It's just we are gonna put the most offensive stuff we can think of and just build around it a story. I respect them for that takes balls. It's sometimes so offensive you have to justs stop drop your jaw and go like "wow that's not ok lol". But i'm not offended cause i get it like i know the intention behind this is not rooted in hate or racism or whatever.
I can't rate this a 10/10 it's not Shawshank Redemption here. It's Toxie 4 lol
But if you like feel to watch an insane crazy trip of a movie that dosen't give a single F. It's a pretty crazy experience. Only if you are willing to go through the rabbit hole tho.
5/10

I can see how some people may not like this film due to the fact Troma Movies are an acquired taste. With that said, Citizen Toxie is one of the best independant films I have seen to date. It's a classic horror comedy with a superhero twist. Nudity, gore, and violence. Whats not to like? In my opinion, director Llyod Kaufman gave fans of the series what they had wanted for years. After Toxie II and III (which were suppose to be one movie but due to its length was made into two) this movie is a welcome return to what made the first Toxic Avenger an instant cult classic.
Holy Christmas!! what did we do to deserve this? Personally, I had given up on a watchable sequel to The Toxic Avenger, what a pleasant surprise, It makes me giddy just thinking about it. Citizen Toxie was exactly what should happen, post Terror Firmer. After the ultimate Troma experience, this was really the most logical, next step, considering Terror Firmer was about the making of a new Toxic Avenger sequel. Well, this is it...
Our long-awaited (real) sequel begins with the most hilarious, most outrageous, first 30 minutes in cinema history. Upon his triumphant return, Melvin "Toxie" Ferd wipes out the diaper mafia, accidentally gets a bunch of retarded ( very special) children shot, impregnates his wife, and unknowingly falls into an alternate dimension. Not a bad warm up. It really feels like the movie has barely started. With an alternate dimension, of course, comes an alternate Toxie. Meet the Noxious Offender, sadistic, killer, crack dealer, just a flat out heel...oh yeah, did I mention, he's now in Toxie's dimension, and he's about to kill virtually, everyone in Tromaville? With most everyone now dead, and a new breed of super hero's trying to make sense of things, Tromaville, along with Toxie's wife, Sarah, belongs to The Noxious Offender. Meanwhile, in Amortville, Toxie, and his retarded (very special), new friends, are awfully concerned, they can't find their houses, there's crime everywhere, come to think of it, this is a cesspool of filth, I don't think were in Tromaville anymore. What follows is the absolute, wildest, most out of hand, unpredictable day in the history of Tromaville...I mean Amortville.
Citizen Toxie is an unexpected, offensive, fast-paced, bat out of hell, but, of course, still has "that Kaufman silliness". We even got our favorites, Lemmy, Debbie, Fleishaker, even our pal, Ron Jeremy pays us a visit. A decent B-movie, not to mention, a masterpiece of a B-movie is quite refreshing, in our current decade. Too bad John Waters doesn't have Lloyd's attitude, and stop making quirky, pseudo-taboo, upbeat, comedies, like Pecker, and do what he's on this planet to do, but that's another story for another day. Citizen Toxie, unlike the first two sequels, stays true to the original, but with the same hard hitting, mean-spirited attitude of Tromeo & Juliet, and Terror Firmer. Our hero, Lloyd Kaufman gives his fans exactly what they crave, more than anyone else. If Toxie 2 and 3 depress you, and if Kaufman's most recent work excites you, and if you love the monster hero, then, Citizen Toxie will leave you in a teary-eyed stupor. Now, that's more like it!! 10/10

Its always a problem to review a Troma movie. Troma is a genre unto itself, and you can't compare their movies to what everyone else is doing. They have their own rules and esthetics... and going by those, this is the best film to come out of Troma in years!
Without doubt, this is the most over-the-top, all-out assault on good taste Troma's put out. They even had the good idea to include an apology for Toxic Avenger Parts II & III. The movie is overloaded with gore, sex, breasts, political incorrectness, breasts, sex, lesbians, transsexuals, mutant superheroes... and did I mention sex, breasts and gore?
Yes, it has no socially redeeming value whatsoever. Its Troma. It's not supposed to. If you're a Troma fan, see it. If you're not, you probably won't like it. Unless you do.
The screening I saw was just this past weekend at the Renegade Film Festival in St. Petersburg, FL. The copy was an advanced screening, and according to the festival promoters the editing on the film was completed just in time for the festival, so I don't know how people were seeing this months ago or why the date listed is 1999 on here...

This is the best Troma film I've seen, and I've seen mostly all of them. Love it or Hate it, you must see this movie. It works on so many disgusting levels- violence, sex, and just pure disgustingness... and some great cameos abound. Can't wait to see more of the Retard Rebel
Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaHugh Hefner was originally going to be in the Tromadu segment. A shot of him saying, "Only the Toxic Avenger knows for sure!" appears in the original teaser trailer. Unfortunately, a cease-and-desist order from Hefner's lawyers forced Troma to remove any and all visual depictions of him from both their advertising and the final film. By all accounts, Hefner himself was initially fine with being in the film, but his lawyers convinced him he was unfairly coerced into being in the movie. Because of this, during the "Special Thanks To" sequence of the final credits, there's a special "No thanks to Hugh Hefner, who asked to be cut out of this film" credit.
- GoofsWhen Toxie and Evil Kabukiman crash their car and it flips, the car comes down and appears to be landing sideways. But in the next shot, it's shown landing straight.
- Quotes
Sgt. Kabukiman: Well, fuck that, I'm not gonna die. Not here in Jersey!
- Crazy creditsFilm Fact: Did you know that in Pilipino (based on Tagalog), the native language of the Phillippines, the phonetic translation of "The Toxic Avenger" is "where are you going with my goat?"
- Alternate versionsThe "R" rated version is heavily cut missing almost all of the gore and sexual content.
