Load of rubbish!!

Excellent but underrated film

best movie i've ever seen.

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Oblivion is slow paced but that's OK at first when we are getting to know the characters and finding out about what's going on. It's not so good in the middle of the film when there isn't much happening. The pace eventually picks up, although the second half of the film is all very predictable. If you can put that aside there are a few good scenes and some of it is quite enjoyable.Andrew Divoff and Musetta Vander are excellent as the bad guys and most of the supporting cast are good too. George Takei doesn't really have much to do though, and I felt that his character could have been better.

Why did someone ever take the trouble to make this movie?? The only thing good to see in this movie is the foxy bad girl Lash.., other than that it has it all to make this movie suck: bad story, special effects that even for 94' qualify as worse than the worst, jokes that make one laugh out of misery and last but definately not least, some serious bad acting!!Some aspects that give a good idea about this movie: out side of town you may encounter enormous clay scorpions that kill upon sight, apparently one can read the future in a cup of coffee if you look in a special way, playing bingo during a funeral is considered normal, all street lights have fans connected to them (dont ask why, its the future ok?), there are frogs about a feet high that kill you when ur scared, when u chop off a cyborgs hand it turns into a flame thrower, ah well, need i say more??when should anyone see this movie?? either when you're with a lot of friends who are all drunk (including yourself), or when u feel the time has come to see a bad movie that just stays in your head because its SO BAD!!!

Oblivion is a low-budget cheesy space-western with so many in-jokes and running gags and stereotypes that it has twice been the cornerstone of video parties at my place!The story is coherent-but-flimsy. The real fun is in the bizarre special-effects, the character references, the costumes, etc.To enjoy this movie, make sure you know what the major players have done before. Keep it in mind. Listen to every word. Have half-a-dozen other people there. With lots of snacks or beer.Oh, and the plot? Who cares. Much like a Batman or Addam's Family movie (for several reasons, both), this movie is about look, feel, and fun. Plot is almost incidental.

Yes, long boring stretches and the typical Full Moon incompetence abound, but that does not diminish the delight of Carel Struycken as a psychic undertaker or George Takei saying things like "Jim Beam me up" and "Great Scotty!" Be warned though- Julie Newmar is unbelievably bad as "Miss Kitty" (har har) and Isaac Hayes tried to do something different with his performance.... and fails miserably.
