Reviews
Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.
Colibel Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.
ShangLuda Admirable film.
Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Lugodoc It's every 80s action film condensed into 15 minutes of non-stop violent claymation, executed with great care and tremendous technical skill. Beautifully sculpted clay models, stop-motion animated, are enhanced with CGI explosions, the whole thing directed and edited like a really good action film. Some bits look almost real.English humourist Miles Kington once said that for a parody to work the parodist had to truly love his subject, and Mike Mort must love those old 80s action movies to create this. It made me laugh with every single frame. It's fast, dense, clever and painstakingly well done, and unlike maverick cop-on-the-edge Chuck Steel it plays by ALL the rules.
Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) This is a 14-minute short film from 2 years ago and it's actually animated, even if this genre is not listed here om IMDb for this little film. BAFTA Award-nominee Mike Mort not only wrote and directed this, he also voiced all the characters. I have to say I liked the animation. The characters were kinda fun to watch, but I cannot really say the story was on par. A cop arrives at a warehouse to free a hostage and in the process of doing so, he kills all the bad guys and finally blows up the whole building. The horny robot was fun and the guy constantly kicking the hostage in the balls was as well. Unfortunately, at some point, it gets pretty repetitive. I guess Mort should have kept the film under the 10-minute mark as, apart from the ending outside, there is nothing really new happening during the entire second half of the film. A bit underwhelming after a good start. Also the lone rider cop aspect could have been emphasized a bit more with funny references other than him shooting the robot near the end. Not recommended.
twilight-amoeba Mike Mort's creation, Raging Balls of Steel Justice is an undeniably funny, adult action - packed short filled with explosions, villainous characters and a lot of bloodshed. From the creator of 'The Gog's'; the story follows maverick lone- wolf Cop 'Chuck Steel' who doesn't play by the rules! Big chin'd and with a quiff, he is accompanied by a sexually obsessed robot. 'Chuck Steel' likes to deliver his own version of justice! A parody of classic 1980's Action / Cop films, this short doesn't take itself too seriously; well written and executed, (Mike Mort does most of the voice's himself) this fast paced entertaining animation leaves you laughing.Skilfully animated in a style that cleverly utilises Stop-Motion animation to take clichés of the action movie genre to the extreme, the humour has Mike Mort's creative signature written all over it, and alongside high quality cinematography, sets, puppets and props culminates in this hilarious short that is thoroughly enjoyable to watch.
Leofwine_draca ...So it's a shame that the rest of this short is such a letdown. RAGING BALLS OF STEEL JUSTICE was conceived as a claymation tribute to the action films of the 1980s, movies which inevitably featured a square-jawed hero committing ultra-violence against terrorist gang members and the like.Mike Mort's job is to play out an action-packed siege scenario in just 15 minutes of screen time, and to be fair he achieves that aim. The animation is very good, and there's a pleasing adult tone to the grisly violence in which various bad guys are inevitably blown to smithereens.A shame, then, that the script seems to have been written by a scatologically-obsessed 14-year-old boy. The constant humour is weak and wearying, such as the sex-obsessed robot (no, I didn't laugh once) and the over-the-top ridiculousness of other bits. Lee Hardcastle's Youtube shorts (such as the exemplary PINGU'S THE THING) are much, much better.
