Sumuru

I enjoyed this movie. It was a little bit "Barbarella for Girls" (not complaining!!) but entertaining and given that the script was very tongue in cheek, well acted. The special effects were a little bit strained, on a smaller budget its better to not try so hard, the results can be better and they do look like they tried too hard in places. I wasn't sure about the female lead, but I suspect it was a difficult one to play, the bad "guy" was well done...its easier to play a baddie in sci-fi because you can ham it up, and this one does. In fact there are times when there is a lot of "hamming" from all directions, which makes the film amusing..I think this is the intention. The film doesn't take itself too seriously as a result which is what makes it so entertaining. Plus there were actually some plot twists and turns which is nice is a sci-fi movie. I managed to obtain this film from Germany...my main complaint is why is this not on general release?

"Sumuru" is an Adventure - Sci-Fi movie in which we watch an Earth-colony of the future where women rule and men are used only to work in the mines and propagate the race.

I have to admit that I did not know what to expect from this movie but still I was disappointed by it since I felt that I wasted my time watching it. The plot was simple but boring, filled with poor CGI's and interpretations mostly average that could not save it. Regarding the interpretations, both Alexandra Kamp who played as Sumuru and Simona Williams who played as Taxan were average and I believe that the whole movie did not help them present their potentials. Lastly, I have to say that "Sumuru" is not a good movie and I won't recommend it to anyone.

As far as B-movies go, this is in the middle. I wasn't getting warm fuzzies during the opening crash/landing scene, graphics and simulated tension were horrible. It picked up in the middle and turned weak again at the end. I love how 900 year old spaceships just power on and fly with no issues. The overacting of Simona Williams (Taxan) was a little overkill, while Alexandra's character seemed a little more realistic. For a planet full of beautiful women, I little more skin might have helped moved this B-Grade up a little.

Gorgeous women dressed as Roman Gladiators traipsing around a desert. Who footed the bill for this ?

Getting a Root Canal or a Colonoscopy without sedation is less painful than watching this epic fail.

What a production, what a waste of screen-time and money. Here is what some european so called producer think, of a scifi movie. Take former model, Alexandra Kamp, pair a with an US c-class actor and get one of film business most notorious producer Harry A. Towers. Towers then finds some obscure munich based prod. house, Tandem communication, Rola Bauer, and then mix it all up with no script whatsoever and you'll get "Sumuru" - a priceless gem among the worst movies ever done! Get a live people, and do something else, whatever you do, no movies please!! To top everything, producers went to South Africa for filming, what you see on screen is one giant sand hole, where the "action" takes place, between extremely bad actors and extremely bad fx that any film student would do better.
