4/10
Almost like Tropic Thunder, but not quite
4 July 2020
Horribly bad 'period' film, with '80's haircuts, cliched '80's dialogue and very hammy acting. Not to mention the European/Amazon/South Pacific Voodoo cult Islanders. Or the bizarre trireme canoes. etc. What's not clear is whether this is intentional parody or accidental irony. The overall tone is 'humor' but the action is quite violent, cruelly violent, even. I can't remember the last time the action entailed so many people shot in the back. Hi-larious. If you're looking for two decent actors hamming it up in a bad script, you'll get some mileage out of this one. If you are expecting anything approaching a good period action film, well, 4/10.
