Some things I liked some I did not.

ridiculous rating

Brilliant and touching

Ogosmith

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

I had expected this to be low budget, sure, but I was nowhere prepared for the atrocity that this movie turned out to be. The movie was made in 2011, but it had a very 1980s touch to it, with special effects from the 1970s. It was such an abominable eyesore to witness.This movie is hopefully a spoof on other low budget movies, because it like like one big massive farce. If it wasn't, then I don't even know where to start.The story in this movie was as to be expected. Earth is at war with Hell. Yes! Hell! And Earth is losing. A soldier is brought back to life as a cyborg in the future to help mankind battle the forces of Hell.The effects were so horribly bad that you constantly sit there laughing and shaking your head in disbelief. Oddly enough, the level of badness just keeps you wanting to see more. I stuck with this movie to the end just to see how much more worse things could be. I think around 90% of the movie was filmed in front of a green screen.The characters in the movie were just as bad as the effects. They looked like a mixture of pre-Mortal Kombat and a rockshow gone bad. The manborg looked like something dished up in an arts and crafts class. #1 man was a poor Liu Kang clone, and his awful dubbed speech was equally bad. The Justice character looked like Billy Idol after having lost his fame and fortune. However, what the movie had working for it was the Nazi-like demonic creatures. There were some pretty good make-up and designs here.As for the dialogue, well lets just say it matched the rest of the movie. Enough said.It should be said that everything is just so bad on every level, that the movie is actually worth sticking around for to the very end. There are worse movies available, but "Manborg" does a great job at trying to get to the top ten list of worst movies ever.

If you watched many of those 80's and 90's sci-fi movies and enjoyed them, you'll like manborg. Just remember to watch it with a huge bowl of popcorn and some home made lemonade :)Sure CGI can be really useful and very interesting, but nowadays it's being misused and abused (like spending 5000 U$ to make a dog poo or a flying fruit). Manborg is really a very good bad sci-fi film, and a reminder of how good and amusing practical effects are. Back in the day watching movies with crappy effects was not an option, and watching manborg makes me realize that the crappy effects where part of the show, they add to the entertainment(KUNG FURY and Machete are more examples). So many good crappy movies that filled my childhood with fun and leave fond memories, like Screamers, Hardware, The Fly Krull, Cocoon, Robocop, Mad Max, Rutger Hauer movies, Aliens, Terminator and even Star Wars( the first one was low budget) and so many others. If they were made nowadays and with low budget CGI they most definitely would not be as good, fun and memorable. Long live the "good" cheap made and with crappy old fashion effects movies like manborg :) YAY

As a fan of cheesy / bad flicks, I found "Manborg" a breath of Columbian Redbud scented air. Often, "bad-on-purpose" movies just plain suck, but "Manborg" took its awfulness seriously, doing its daggonest to astound with ineptitude, wooden acting, and the fact that (allegedly) the entire production budget was around $1,100 in Canadian money.I've seen much worse films (4-X, "Curse of the Headless Horseman") that were dead serious, but nowhere near as entertaining. "Manborg" should be on the must-see list of every fan of cine-cheese, if only to see that such a thing can be accomplished.My only regret is that there's no such film as "Bio-Cop".

What can I say for MANBORG I loved it..It reminded me of the good old days of late night cable TV on a Friday night with your buddies over drinking beer and eating popcorn and enjoy good cheesy B Horror/Sci Fi movies of the 1980's.Right away I was hooked.. Story, characters,Plot interesting direction special effects very cool.. I am happy to see that the filmmakers can have fun making something that they love .. Yes it's cheesy and not up to standards of today so called Grandier filmmaking It's not supposed to be.. Its all about fun and making something you love and the filmmakers showed that B movies are still around Congrats..
