Good follow-up to Robot Jox
Review date: 2008-03-04 Rating: 10 out of 10
People are quite unkind about this little gem...but be warned, as it will only truly make sense if you already own, or have seen its predecessor Robot Jox...itself quite hard to get these days.
An innocent movie, with good FX, and tackling quite a unique story..that being giant mechanical robots, complete with human onboard operator, battling for supremacy, in an age where nations no longer fight nations, but choose to fight it out in arenas with schooled and trained jox operators.
Think 'Rollerball', spliced with 'Death Race 2000'.
After all, how seriously can you analise a movie about giant destroying robots?
Very influential too, as can be bourne out by battling robots in the third installment of the Matrix trilogy...
Enjoy! Good honest fun!

Full Moon and Megan ...

Ouch, the critics are not kind towards this film, but as I say, there are more terrible things you can do than make a bad film. For some reason I like this flick, not sure why but a young Megan Ward is certainly one of those reasons, check out ARCADE and TRANCERS 2 for her other collaborations with Full Moon Entertainment. CRASH AND BURN may not be art, but I know what I like, and this is fun B movie cinema ... nor more and no less.

Why?
"Why?" is a very commonly used word, to query a fact or statement. I think that this word is over-used.
But never before has this word had such a meaning as i does with "Crash and Burn"
WHY LORD? WHY MAKE US WATCH THE LOWEST FORM OF ENTERTAINMENT KNOWN AS "CRASH AND BURN"?
This film is the very worst single filming event ever. I'm not pointing any fingers at how a quite promising idea could go so terribly wrong, but it failed worse than Jim Davidson in a comedy contest. (Thats bloomin bad!)
I beg you not to waste your time watching this, as you will have much better things to do. Letting your very own muscles slowly eat you insides away would be more rewarding and would have more of a point than to watch this film. Not worth even one of your English pennies.
This film puts 1989 to a bad name. If you watch this you will not remember this year for anything positive, only for the lowest point in cinematic history.
WHATEVER YOU DO DON'T BUY THIS FILM!
Adios!
THE WORST FILM EVER
Review date: 2003-11-26 Rating: 2 out of 10
Extremely likely this is the worst film ever created, the worst acting, the worst effects and the worst EVERYTHING. I'm still surprised Amazon actually stock this crap.This film is such a great pity, its storyline if told to you prior the film would of sounded interesting; but with about an hour of nothing, followed by a little bit of better crap this film should honestly be recycled from DVD/VHS into toilets or bowls you can be sick into. Sorry to anyone who thought this movie looked promising, but i really didn't think something this bad could be created by our movie business. Only buy this terrible D-movie if your going to through it out the window or point and laugh at it then thhrough it out a plane.THE WORST FILM EVER MADE.
