Mutant on the Bounty (1989)

I can usually watch anything and I have often enjoyed films that most people agree really stank. BUT this is a major change in my film enjoyment. This film is not only bad, but BORING too! IT STINKS.... On the box, there are 4 stars awarded to this show saying, "One of the BEST drive-in movie of 1989. Check it out twice!" by Joe Bobb Briggs of Host of Drive-In Theater on the Movie Channel. The box also says, "In the grand tradition of Mel Brooks' "Spaceballs" comes this sci-fi comedy guaranteed to provide light-years of laughs. Things are fairly dull for the crew of the space research vessel the USS BOunty until Max (Kyle T. Heffner of 'Flashdance' 'Young Doctors in Love' and 'Women in Red', a stranded musician in space, is accidentally mutilated when he is beamed aboard. He's soon followed by two additional strangers who have been following Max across the universe, but aren't saying why. The journey is long, the crew is crazy, and you'l laugh until your out of control." BEWARE: This is a complete load of steaming bull!@#$. It is not anything like a Brooks film...the film is too long, the plot makes little sense, and I didn't even smile through this one. Give film to someone you dislike.

Yes this is a terrible film and yes that is a phone you see in the main characters face but any film is worth watching at least once don't let this review put you off ignore the terrible dialog and abysmal special effects and just enjoy the sight of the security officer with all the personality of a microwave, literally and the bad guy in the "...one place he is always alone...the s**tter" i've never looked at a toilet in quite the same way!

There's bad, and there's bad. "Plan 9 From Outer Space" is bad but at least it's so consistently awful that it's entertaining in a slow-motion-train-wreck sort of way. "Mutant" is bad and exceptionally boring to boot. I've seen better writing and acting in old Ultraman episodes. Absolutely dreadful.

Reviving B-movies is one thing, and unfortunately, MUTANT ON THE BOUNTY doesn't fit well in the modern, contemporary year of 1989 when movies were made to really attract viewers' tastes. This would have been a fairly decent film thirty years prior to this release, without the lame jokes and terrible acting performances. Even the sets are poorly designed, too! Who on Earth would let the actors wear their original garments in a spaceship anyway? It's also unbelievable that I counted 13 "F" words spoken, making it the highest number for a movie rated PG-13 by the M.P.A.A.! Here is yet another lame-brained comedy that gets tossed out of the window. Ranks right up there with LEONARD, PART 6!
