Review of Amazon Women on the Moon (1987) by Simon D — 06 Jan 2015
Amazon Women on the Moon is another wacky lampoon movie from contributors such as Joe Dante and John Landis (who previously directed the superior Kentucky Fried Movie). It's a movie that throws basically everything into a hat: fake commercials, skits, movie parodies, fake bumpers, etc.
To be honest, I didn't laugh a whole lot while watching the movie, but I did smile a lot at many things. It's certainly not one of the best screwball comedies out there, but it's not altogether bad either.
It's a shame that these types of movies aren't being made anymore. They're fun, inventive, and have a lot of value to them. This actually feels a lot older than it is, perhaps because it's meant to lampoon a simpler time when flipping through a few channels only was as good as it got as far as TV went.
You'll see a whole host of different celebrities and actors pop up in this movie too. It's a fun movie, but not an overtly funny one.
