KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
MartinHafer I rented this DVD because I really like Shaw Brothers movies, not because I am a fan of shows like the Power Rangers and the like. However, I figured with this Chinese studio behind the production, I might still enjoy it. Well, now that the film is over, I can say that I was not at all impressed, as it seemed like a movie only for kids--not fans of serious martial arts films. I appear to be in the minority, though, as all the other reviewers gave it glowing reviews. Now I am not saying that they are wrong--it's just that how much you enjoy this film will really depend on what you think of seeing superheroes and monsters in rubber suits beating each other up for most of the film. They liked it, I didn't--it's as simple as that. I grew up long before the Power Rangers--during the era of Ultraman and even then, I was the only boy in the neighborhood that didn't like the show. So, keep this in mind when reading my review.The film begins with monster attacks occurring all over the place. Only after this has occurred many times did the leader of these monsters show herself. Now I could not understand why some hot Chinese lady in an odd costume was the queen of a bunch of guys in rubber monster suits or Grim Reaper fighting costumes, but I guess you just have to accept this for what it is. The group of humans sent to fight these monsters is really pathetic and so it's up to the brilliant doctor to turn one of these men into the monster-fighter, Inframan! Inframan can do just about anyth8ing and one by one he beats the snot out of all the baddies--leading to a rather unexciting and highly anticipated finale.On the plus side, the costumes are pretty cool and SOME of the martial arts are pretty good (particularly later in the film). On the negative side, these are guys in rubber suits beating the crap out of each other! 'Nuff said!
Mikko_Elo_ super inframan the cult movie. of course things like this always find their own, but there was not much for me to enjoy in this one. i was watching old shawscope trash with few redeeming qualities. it would take a while to list everything that was lousy about it, all the clumsy errors, silly costumes, settings, lack of plot...and so on. i didn't find it all very humorous either. the monsters were indeed humorous, and the robots near the end were actually quite imaginative, but the dull scenes between the fights, the awful noise throughout the movie and the utter lack of any deeper meaning put me off. call me a tired dry grown-up, but i might have liked this when i was eight.
Westley Anson This is a classic Japanese sci-fi movie. Yes it has terrible special effects, horrible acting and even worse story line. What was so special about it? It was exciting to imagine being infra-man. I think my friends and I must have done the moves a hundred times while playing. The costumes were comical but believable as a kid. The acting was over the top and of course dubbed. But that is what Sci-fi was in the 70's. It is a story that was easy to relate too as a kid and how I long for those days now that I am older. Try to see this movie, you will enjoy it.
inframan I can't believe this isn't out on VHS or DVD! It's a very early Hong Kong SciFi Fantasy Kung Fu live action version of a Japanese anime-style film! Funny & outrageous, too. Check out the costumes! Check out Princess Dragon-Mom!! Fantastic! Maybe I'm prejudiced.
