"He certainly saved everyone of us"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

My love for this film cannot be expressed in any words besides a deeply romantic love poem I may or may not have written to it.

"An Epicly Awesome B-grade Classic"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

If you love corny b-grade sci-fi/fantasy movies then this is a must see. No other movie I have ever watched has the vibrant colour pop of Flash Gordon. The costume design is fantastic and the soundtrack is preformed by Queen so its almost like watching a Glam Rock video. What more really needs to be said other than “By the moons of Mongo”

"FLASH AAAHAAAA"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

An '80s classic, brought to a high definition Ming Merciless masterpiece. Sci-fi and '80s equals classic!

Description

Flash Gordon (1980)

Although NASA scientists are claiming the unexpected eclipse and strange “hot hail” are nothing to worry about, Dr. Hans Zarkov (Topol) knows better, and takes football star Flash Gordon (Sam Jones) and travel agent Dale Arden (Melody Anderson) with him into space to rectify things. They land on planet Mongo, where the despot Ming the Merciless (Max von Sydow) is attacking Earth out of pure boredom. With the help of a race of Hawkmen, Flash and the gang struggle to save their home planet.

Critic Reviews:

  • " Basically, whether laughing with this film, or at it, you'll have a blast. " – Charlotte O'Sullivan
  • " Perhaps, like many a superhero film, this one flags just a little in the final battle sequences, but Von Sydow is always there to keep things bizarre, playing it absolutely straight. " – Peter Bradshaw
  • " a mid-air skirmish of corny old-fashioned retrofuturism and knowing postmodernism, even as its veneer of homespun innocence keeps being subverted by the corrupting powers of kink. " – Anton Bitel
