Recently, I started browsing through the used movies bin at a local video store. You know the type, every movie marked down from $4 to $2. This is usually where you find old work out videos and videos that came with 80's toys (I think I found a Barbie Adventure in one of these once). Anyway this is where I discovered Mutant Hunt. The tagline on the box had me sold, "It's the 21st century New York and It's open season on cyborgs". The god awfulness of this tagline pretty much describes the god awfulness of the film. But that's actually the most entertaining feature of the film.
Mutant Hunt is by no means a good movie, or even a decent film. The script is terrible, the editing bites, and the camera work is abismal. However, if you want a film that you can repeatedly make fun of over and over again, this is your flick. My friend and I watched this film and made jokes throughout the entire thing, MST3K Style. One of our ongoing jokes was that Cyborgs are weak against wood and karate chops because that seemed to be the only thing that really had an effect on them.
I do have to give props to who ever was on the robot design, the cyborgs, normally just guys wearing sunglasses and are dripping fluid, generally look pretty terrible. However at one point, one of the cyborgs gets its skin torn off and we see the robotic endoskeleton. Its movements and looks were pretty good and you can see where 95% of the budget for this film went to.
Overall the film has some decent oneliners (including the phrase "space shuttle sex massacre" and one character who calls the cyborgs Jellyheads) but the true enjoyment of this film is really just making fun of it. This is the only redemption of the film. Jellyhead.

Why bother with City of Angels? Anyone? No? Good. This film is truly amazing. Probably one of the best films I have seen in a long while. The use of color and black and white and the story and the characters and narrative and Peter Falk (who knew he could be that good?) and everything. Amazing. I can't really say much more. Just see it. Put City of Angels down and get On the Wings of Desire.
How do I start off with this review? Well, lets start with what's right about this film. First, it has motion. That's about it.
The story behind "The Blue Angel" lacks the necessary connection to make the audience care about what happens, not to mention the fact that when the story does progress it makes an improbable progression. For example, the way in which the love between Prof. Rath and Lola seems too forced to be realistic. They meet, they talk briefly, they (for unexplained reasons) get married.
I hoped that through all the improbability that the film would come to an entertaining and/or logical ending. Sadly I was mistaken, the ending leaves me hating this film even more.
If you are studying early cinema or German cinema or the even more popular early German cinema, then you may have to sit through this movie. I feel sorry for you. However, if you are out looking through old German videos to fill some empty German cinema void in your life, then rent "Metropolis" or "Nosferatu" or "The Cabinent of Dr. Caligari" or "M" or anything but "The Blue Angel".
