3.0 out of 5 stars What's with all the whiners?, October 3, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Abraxas (DVD)

Sure the movie is low budget, kind of forgettable and bad. That doesn't make it a shoe-in for a zero rating, though folks. We've got the immortal line in this flick: "My box has VD." And let's not forget the slow-motion fighting to Kenny G inspired music, with random nonsensical explosions happening in the background...or the woman who has a baby with all her clothes on! There's PLENTY of entertainment to be gleaned from this movie, you cinema snobs just don't know where to look for it. All in all, I recommend it to people who want to see unintentional humor, and who don't expect every movie to be made with a 100 million plus budget. Jeez...if you wanna see a true blue zero rating, rent Sextette, and leave this modest effort alone!

5.0 out of 5 stars A movie that is to be compared to the classics, June 30, 2001

"sopimus" (please tell me) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Abraxas (DVD)

When the true movie critics speaks about the science fiction classics we often get lectures on star wars and other high budget motion pictures. What we have to remember is the ones who never got into the herds view of sight. One of these movies are Abraxas. A movie which never got the attention it deserved. If the true soldiers of iron culture will ever emerge, Abraxas will their movie of inspiration.

3.0 out of 5 stars I liked it., November 16, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Abraxas (DVD)

Yes, it's low budget. If you require expensive pyrotechnics and special effects, you will not find them in "Abraxas." Yes, the leading lady could not act her way out of a paper bag. But I enjoyed the plot, the supporting characters of the 2 small-town police officers, funny scenes like 2 small-town waitresses having to serve breakfast to Sven-Ole Thorssen even though he's huge, brooding and looks just like the description of the man who's just murdered 2 or 3 townspeople. Jesse Ventura does a creditable acting job. The VHS box copy makes it sound like a a slam-bam action film, but that's not what "Abraxas" really is. If you're looking for a rather sweet little film that looks like people tried really hard to make something good without much money, I think you'll like it. I loved the scene where Jesse threatens his wrist computer "answer box" with deactivation of its vocal mode if it doesn't stop telling him how to carry out his mission.
