This a zany, whacky & fun adventure that has very high production value. The special effects are 1st rate as well.
A very funny rom-com/action comedy/parody. The plot may not be too realistic - three female agents tries to prevent World War III by marrying powerful men and pacifying them via kung-fu and more - but the movie is very entertaining and it is filled with good music performed by the folk duo Bright Blue Gorilla who has also written, directed and produced the movie.
Bright Blue Gorilla's latest creation is a sweet little monster of a comedy.
I will have to introduce the term LAC for this. Low action comedy (LAC).
A spy movie of sorts with 3 secret female agents and helpers trying to secure world peace through marrying and deceiving dubious male characters who might pose a threat to the world one way or another. This includes special combat techniques, kung fu , sedatives and travels across the world.
As a production of extreme low cost it praises the love of film making, making things possible within an impossible budget. With an almost innocent approach the creators pour their heart into storytelling with a combination of goofy (in the best sense of the word) surrealism and an almost Tarantino like kitch style. The deliverance of the understated humor in this piece and the construction of some scenes reminds me of an early Pedro Almodovar from time to time (Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown springs to mind).
All together this TAC is a sweet declaration of love to the film media with a fine touch of surrealism and absurdity sneaked in to the easy going storytelling.

An infectiously engaging globetrotting romp which somehow manages to incorporate kung-fu action, spy intrigue, and romcom into a musical format. Only the "Gorilla" moviemaking team of Michael Glover and Robyn Rosenkrantz could conceive such a genre smorgasbord - and actually pull it off. While most indie productions are limited to a few single key locations, 36 Husbands leaps seamlessly from Paris to Los Angeles, with stopovers in Frankfurt, Berlin, and the wilds of Australia. Add to this some trompe-l'oeil acts of cinematic deception, and you have a refreshingly upbeat entertainment. Howard Corlett is a particular standout among the energetic cast.
36 Husbands ? ?
What can i say? It's probably the worst film I have ever seen.
A very silly production that can't be taken seriously. Badly edited and cut. Absurd acting and actors. A foolish plot. Is this a comedy? If so, it isn't the least bit funny. I am still trying to figure out what this film is about, other than a bunch of people travelling around the world. Avoid if you can!!
