| KRULL 3.5 CHEESES Characters: Prince Corwin: Main hero guy that has THE GLAIVE Pirncess Lyssa: Dmasel in distress Old guy: mysterious old guy that leads corwin Bandits: A bunch of bandits that help out That Magical Guy: Shape shifting magician guy I forgot his name Most of the other guys had weird names that I couldn't remember and really weren't that important. PLOT I would have to say that Krull is the most convenient movie ever. Every time a problem arises some guy just says "I know, the so-and-so will help us." Then they all rush off, get helped, and then have a new problem arise. Aside from that, I found the movie very enjoyable. It is planet Krull, and it is being invaded by SLAYERS. A bunch of Darth Vader clones that like to shoot lasers at medieval people. They decide to ruin Corwin's wedding with Lyssa, kill just about everyone, and create a damsel in distress epic. Prince Corwin is revived by the old guy and then they go and fetch the GLAIVE, a circular claw weapon thingy. It is the thing that can destroy the SLAYERS' master THE BEAST. (now sing merily... "We're of to slay the beast; in the horrible castle of doom") SFX The moment that you start to watch KRULL you think, "hey this is an 80's movie." So you know that the SFX are all going to be 80's quality. Most are pretty bad now, but I look at it like this. The movie is from the 80's so they were good for the time and some look cool even now. I really liked whatever effects the used on the FRIE MARES. (Horeses that so fast fire came from their feet) All together they're 80's-tastic SFX. GORE What gore this is a PG movie. We do get plenty of laser blasts and a PG impaling. What I Learned I wish I had a glaive, those thing are cooltastic. I also want an army of slayers. Who wouldn't??? I like 80's effects more than crappy CGI. Cyclopses can see the future... BOTTOM LINE Overall KRULL is the best evil space aliens versus medieval fantasy people, movie I have ever seen. Also the only one. But hey, this is a prime example of an 80's movie goodness. If you think about it this movie has almost everything that you could want in a movie. Lasers, swords, magic, monsters, fighting, death, romance, and AN EPIC (sort of) PLOT. I can honestly say that this movie would be fun for the whole family. It also is the first PG movie on this site. |
