Review of Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Movie (1996) by Kyle A — 29 Sep 2015
The people involved with this film have stated it's not as good as the show, but I disagree. I think it's just as good, and could've been a hit, if Gramercy Pictures hadn't been involved.
Like with Mallrats, they had gold, but treated it like a straight-to-video release promotion wise, dooming it before opening night.
My only complaint about this movie and the show is that trying to show this to someone not used to 100 laughs-per-minute is extremely hard to do. It's not like a standard comedy, where there's a setup, into a process, ending in a punchline. This film is joke, joke, joke, joke, joke, one after another until the film ends. Us fans LOVE it, but people who don't get it, just think we're nuts for liking it..lol.
