Review of Turbo Kid (2015) by Daroczi — 11 Feb 2016
At first, you'll be led to believe that you're watching a Kung Fury-type film. Well, the overt 80's throwbacks are there, but the tone is a 180° turn which allows for audience investment and tension.
Characters are defined and fun, our protagonist grows and overcomes challenges such as learning to open up to others. For a smaller film, they overcome the obstacle of smallness by illustrating the massive wasteland through "long shots" and even a cantina scene.
The gore is disgusting but goofy enough that I laughed out loud several times. Michael Ironsides should be in everything. Apple is a delight. The film was made by people who understand film, have passion for it, and show it.
