Really entertaining documentary with some great anecdotes about the 1980's and the rise of action movies and actors. Very well done, it keeps ones' attention while watching.
Lots of interviews make a fun look back at action heroes and movies of the 80s and early 90s BUT there are some really weird typos in places (wrong dates and directors names for example) that make you scratch your head that they could have been missed. But overall it's a solid retrospective and worth watching if you like that era of movies.
Impact of exciting topic - told from (several, but not all of) the horses' mouths - lessened by bland talking head/spastic A. D. D. "structure". End credits hint at a (potentially) more interesting version. #nitrosMovieChallenge.
I was born in 1983 and this was nostalgic.
If you're a film junkie like myself then you'll appreciate the time and effort that Oliver Harper and everyone else put in to make this happen.
I enjoyed it. Not my place to say where it could have been improved. It is what it is.
Thank you.

Essentially a 2 and half hour YouTube video. Little to no narrative structure, no visual cohesion and very repetitive. Also HIGHLY dubious this cost the full 100k bucks they crowdfunded, even more so having seen the low quality of the backer rewards issued

- GoofsSeveral titles were written twice in the credits, including American Ninja (1985) and Police Story 2 (1988) in the film clips shown section, and Commando (1985) and Enter the Dragon (1973) in the movie posters section-- the latter of which was written another two times but as "Version 1" and "Version 2."

Vernon Wells: We are a society - especially the female part of it - we are a society that likes to look at things like that. At muscles. It was like: "oh, look at those muscles".
