Flash Gordon Reviews
Basically, whether laughing with this film, or at it, you'll have a blast.

Perhaps, like many a superhero film, this one flags just a little in the final battle sequences, but Von Sydow is always there to keep things bizarre, playing it absolutely straight.

a mid-air skirmish of corny old-fashioned retrofuturism and knowing postmodernism, even as its veneer of homespun innocence keeps being subverted by the corrupting powers of kink.

The expensive new version of Flash Gordon is a lot more gaudy, and just as dumb, as the original series starring Buster Crabbe.

A soundtrack by Queen is one of the highlights of this film actualization of the comic strip. The crazy set design and costumes are also dead-on replicas of the strip.
