Farewell, FamiKamen Rider

Here's the thing. When Jew Wario died it was a sad state of affairs. He seemed like such a nice guy and this was his passion project which his friend Marzgurl wanted to make real. So the script was redone, characters played by Jew Wario would be played by Fake Shemps with their face covered and everything would be fine.

If only any of that were true.

This movie is a mess from start to finish. The writing is very hit and miss, the acting is absolutely terrible and the less said about Marzgurl trying to be dramatic the better. It was a bad movie made by untalented people.

And then the allegations started. And the truth came out that Jew Wario, a.k.a. Justin Carmichael was a sexual predator. This was covered up by the company he worked for, Channel Awesome, and the truth only came out after he killed himself.

So all we have left is this movie which thankfully has little actual Justin in it but that doesn't take away from the rest of the badness.

It's a curiosity piece more than anything really good. I'd avoid it completely if I were you.

I have only seen a few of Justin Carmical's videos such as his "I like Candy" and "You can play this". I haven't seen much of his FamiKamen videos, though.

Originally he was going to star in this movie, but due his death, Kaylyn and Josh re-wrote the story.

It is a very dialogue heavy movie, with very little action much like a Kevin Smith or Tarantino film. So, it does get a little boring in the first hour.

But when the action finally happens after that hour, they're very satisfying. The fight scenes are well edited, done with zooming in on the characters as they fight. The climax of the movie is also good and quite emotional as well.

The acting is not that great, but then the people who star in this are really just YouTubers and internet reviewers.

The jokes are hit and miss. Some are good, others are lame.

But is this movie a big "Up yours" to Sega, though?

Overall, it's an alright film. Worth watching if you like either Marzgurl or Jew Wario.

This movie is downright awful. Characters are so generic and troupey, Chris one of the characters is just a stereotypical fat guy who loves food, his dialogue is very cringe-worthy like most people in this Film. There's not much to say about Nash or Mark Fujita as they get no screen time. Marzgurl is a semi decent character as she "Struggles" throughout the movie trying to stop "Kid" the Villain who is part of Ages (Sega spelt backwards) from Trying to get the "Warion Energy" from the Belt and Cartridge of the "Famikamen Rider". "Kid" is a very Basic villain, simply wanting to get power because he can. His dialogue again "Cringy" and his Gear design looks like a power ranger from the 25 cent Store. This film has a Power system called "Gears" such as "Famikamen Gear" and "Hakai Gear" they are activated by putting the cartridge in the belt, I felt that the "Gear" System was Poorly designed and many things feel unanswered in this movie. Overall it was a bad experience could never recommend.
