Can't Understand Why This Hasn't Developed A Serious Cult Following
Basically, EVERY piece of crap movie out there seems to have -some- cult following and gets at least a '6' rating here. But 3.7??? C'mon!
I was a fan of the original series when it came out. I see this as different from the original as 'The Dark Knight' from Adam West.
And I like this thing. Ralphe almost channels how Chapman and Cleese used to play the British banker types. Any chance to see Eddie Izzard play a droogie is worth taking. Uma has the requisite hotness. And the puns are just as bad as in the original. And Sean? He gets to play the caricature of himself that all comedians do.
I liken it to 'Death to Smoochy'... a fave of mine... which also has a dismal rating but has real moments of genius. I think it's a bit too clever and campy for general audiences but it should have at least -some- love.
I give it a solid 7. If yer high? 8.5
