Code Name: Dynastud

Unreal bad no even funny. NO WASTE YOUR TIME. Bad acting and ridiculous. Can believe someone put money to produce this piece of junk,

I really enjoyed Dynastud and the return to campy humor that's been missing in LGBTQ films lately.

Campy humor has been and will always be a part of gay culture. It's how we process all the pain, anger, and disappointment we've experienced (and still experience today, unfortunately). Campy films seemed to hit their peak in the late 90s and 2000s and it was a fun time for our cinema. In the 2010s, they seemed to go out of style. But this film seems to mark a return to humor.

We need laughter. These are very dark times in our country and often times it feels like we're losing everything we fought to achieve. Dynastud represents a time capsule of what we're suffering through and it's important for it to be said. Sure, the film is outlandish. That's what makes campy humor so much fun.

My husband and I really enjoyed it and hope more film makers will make campy films because it really does help deal with all the madness in this current administration.

By that I mean all the 10 ratings in these reviews. Either they are coming from the actors/participants of this incredible steamy pill of horse-manure or potentially well-wishers/boyfriends of the actors. No one...and I repeat NO ONE could POSSIBLY consider this film in any way "good". There were several full frontal scenes with very awkward actors who apparently were so desperate in their careers they not only agreed to take the roles in this film, but did full frontal...when clearly they should not have (the lead did not...which is odd since this film is supposedly all about his penis...couldn't they have invested in a prosthetic for him?). Just awful on all fronts...not "topical", not "funny"...just not worth watching.

Yeah, this is bound to upset some yahoos, promoting a society that accepts LGBQT, but it is actually quite smart and very funny in its approach to the superhero genre while making a social commentary that's rarely hit-over-the-head level. As an ally, I laughed through most of it, and nodded my head in others in agreement. So worth a viewing. There is some male nudity, so keep the kids away if you must, but if your sense is an open-minded one, gay or straight, there is a lot to enjoy here. Even if you're Canadian (if you see the film, you'll understand what I mean).

If you sat through the first 15min then keep watching!

I'll start with what I didn't like: first off I could say it appears to be done on a micro-budget, as it lacks quality, and special effects are often bad.

Then the plot isn't the greatest, as it seems another movie making fun of other hyped movies, or exaggerating situations nearly to a ridicule. The acting in some parts looks more like a theatre play than an actual movie, I didn't like the whole cast, but some did do well in their parts. Soundtrack also could have been improved, although I was surprised and amused on a few instances.

Said all of this, the good: it's a GREAT smart comedy, and if you are not easily offended, you will likely laugh your ass off in several occasions! Also, it's a critic to some of today's issues and overall social problems, and transmits a message of acceptance and tolerance very much needed in today's world.

Overall a movie to watch when you need to relax and improve your mood.
