DVD Review: what?
Summary: 2 Stars
First let me start off by saying I am a rabid Jemaine Clement fan. I love Flight of the Conchords, and it was a youtube link that directed my attention to this movie. After laughing at the humorous plot synopsis on the back of the case and reading the amazon reviews, I couldn't wait to pop this into my dvd player. The intro song was a little catchy and silly with that trademark Jemaine type of humor, so I thought I was in for a treat. Boy was I wrong. This movie has maybe two parts that I might have chuckled at. The fact that so many of the reviews on this site are so positive is completely astounding to me. Its not even an interesting movie. I wanted to stop watching the movie 15 minutes into it, but I kept going in the hopes that things would get better. Not the case. The movie is littered with songs that make me feel like a complete dullard for even watching them. They aren't funny at all, and the fact that Bret McKenzie co-wrote them makes it even harder for me to believe. The characters aren't likable, and the movie just drags on. The whole 'martial arts B-movie' shtick wears off long before the ending credits roll. I really can't figure out what type of film fan I can recommend this to. If you want a silly/b-movie/musical with shoddy production values, check out Cannibal the Musical. Sorry Conchords.
DVD Review: Funny, but don't expect much
Summary: 4 Stars
Since they tell you themselves that they made this movie on their spare time on the weekend and the whole movie being dubbed, I didn't expect much. I was happily surprised and disappointed, but laughing the whole way through. Many of you may know Jemaine Clement from Flight of the Conchords, he is Action Fighter, Tongan Ninja's bitter rival. In that fashion there is several songs in this movie written by Jemaine and fellow band member Bret Mckenzie that don't disappoint. Don't expect much in the fighting sequences either, this isn't Hollywood. But there is a few surprises like a quite entertaining car chase scene. Overall, a funny movie, and being a fan of Flight of the Conchords makes it that much better.DVD Review: Tongan Ninja, eh?
Summary: 4 Stars
A pretty funny movie.
Their English on English over-dubbing is hilarious. Some of the filming is home-movie quality and must be dealt with, but the movie overall contains a few laughs that make it worth a watch. The best part of this DVD is the making of Mock-umentary. This film does well of making fun of martial arts films.
DVD Review: Absolutley Terrible
Summary: 1 Stars
After watching Flight of the Conchords, I thought I would give this a try. Jemaine Clement was painful to watch in this... maybe one funny scene in the entire movie. Now, I am one who loves terrible movies... but i realized they are usually the ones that are supposed to be serious... Steven Segal, Chuck Norris, etc... This movie was not funny at all and I felt ashamed for having bought it.
