Surge of Power: Revenge of the Sequel

I watched this movie and found it very funny, the story has a great message to it.

A superhero movie like no other. It's simultaneously an homage to the genre and irreverent as hell. I can get behind any movie in which the superhero turns to a drag queen for help. Eric Roberts is having a great time as the supervillain Augur. And, like all good superhero movies, you've got to watch to the end of the credits!

With the abundance of blockbuster super-hero films dominating the box-office, it's refreshing to see a thoroughly comedic take on the genre! It's quite obviously a low-budget, b-grade film - but the cast & the filmmakers know that, and they do a solid job of delivering a camp, funny film, filled to the brim with a host of b-grade celebrity cameos (is there anything Eric Roberts isn't in?). Grab a couple of drinks, don't take it too seriously, and you'll have a blast watching this.

This movie looks like someone shot it with their phone. The sound quality is horrible at times and mostly hard to hear. The acting is so bad, especially the "helpful" trio. I can do a better green screen at home. The writing is especially unfunny, randomly referencing Star Trek or Doctor Who without involving an actual joke is reminiscent of especially unfunny episodes of The Big Bang Theory. I am a Star Trek fan, so seeing Nichelle Nichols credited at this "campy comedy" was what drawn me to it. Now I wonder how much did they pay her. Robert Picardo seems to be stuck in acting in fanfilms and low budget movies like this recently...poor guy. I regret wasting my Sunday morning on this.

Very fun! This has cult classic written all over it. The cast had lots to work with here in this very funny script by director-writer duo Antonio Lexerot and Vincent Roth. Lots of laughs and some great cameos by the likes of Lou Ferrigno, Lind Blair and Eric Roberts. I'm excited to see more from these guys
