Mutant Action Audience Reviews

Thehibikiew Not even bad in a good way
PlatinumRead Just so...so bad
Bessie Smyth Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
pawelzietek One of the worst films I saw. I don't know why I did as I already knew de la Iglesia's other "achievements" and the only film that saves itself is "La Comunidad". It is punk film for punk kids and let get it clear, I'm not an anarchist and I'm not that as young as I would like to be but you may like the flick if you are one. Also being Spanish can be helpful - I'm not. Anyway: if you dig this one, try also "Torrente" and "Airbag" - I hated those as much as I hated "Accion Mutante", but plenty of my Spanish mates were recommending all of those three films. I guess it's just a question of "gustos". Back to the review: acting is bad, so and storytelling, directing, and work of camera. The movie looks like it is done by a film school drop out on 2nd class ganja. Beware!!! Or enjoy!!! if you like this kind of films - I certainly don't...
KGB-Greece-Patras While other reviewers suggest this started out well but later lost focus, to me it went vice versa. Starts out OK, trying to balance between hilarity and supposed social commentary and of course action and blood-sheding. It manages quite well (hey this is low budget!) but I don't think the director meant for serious satire or comment on high society and life style etc. others suggested. Anyway, at the final third part, when the spaceship reaches the planet, the film gets to its high point! I had a great time watching this film, it's funny (in a twisted way), there's blood and sickness. It's high time of entertainment. It reminded me of BRAINDEAD & BAD TASTE of Peter Jackson, as well as BODY MELT of Philip Brophy and maybe a bit Mad Max (by the way ALL Australian films). Just don't expect TOO MUCH. Fans of mainstream sci-fi cinema: STAY AWAY!
a_carling At three am in the morning, after working, to sit in front of the international station and see this movie was a wonderful way to unwind. Aside from the obvious cheesy this movie is it also sports some very well placed and also hidden humor that can catch you unaware. All the way to the end it is made up from moments of madness, not unlike "the thief, the cook, and the lover", it reigns way up there in the realms of monty python, (to some) and as bad as the attack of the killer tomatoes, it could have easily been a cult movie given the air time. I especially enjoyed the closing scene ( no not because the movie was over), but because all the corpses sat up and sang the bad bad ending song...............a slap to the conventional, nah, just good light hearted fun.
kasturi-1 Like the title says, this movie is an action flick about, well, mutants. Mutants who are terrorists trying to blow up the "beautiful people" of the world. I suspect, having read other viewer comments, (after being appalled by spelling and grammar), that this film will appeal to a very small, select audience. Personally, I laughed so hard, my face actually hurt. Rarely have I seen a more entertaining, goofy, hilarious, science fiction/thriller, and complete romp of a film."Accion Mutante" is certainly over-the-top, and it plays fast and loose with plot development, but that's part of its charm. If you're looking for a "serious" action movie, or one with some kind of point (i.e. only handsome, muscle-ridden Americans with cool sunglasses can save the world), then this is not the movie for you. But if you have an outrageous, wacky sense of humour, and you enjoy gonzo SF movies with lots of ridiculous gore and totally unrealistic violence, that leave no holds barred, then take a look at "Accion Mutante"--you'll probably love it.For aficionados of films with the sensibility of "Freaked", "Eating Raoul", "Big Trouble in Little China", the pacing of "Aliens", and a similar amount of violence to "Fight Club". Not a subtle film, but definitely an entertaining one. And when was the last time you were actually entertained at the movies?
