Flash Gordon Ratings & Reviews
- Gianni Cavuoto4d agoWhat a great movie…..if you like campy and fun. It's so awesome I can watch it time and time again. I couldn't help but notice the similarities between “The Wizard of Oz” and Flash Gordon but it doesn't distract from it at all. I am really impressed with the amount of time and money that De Laurentiis spent on the sets, models and costuming. They were definitely at the height of their powers with the B movie genre for sure. The other thing that really impressed me was how closely the models, spaceships and the overall feel of the movie was like the 1930s serials. Do we need to even mention the brilliance of the soundtrack? Of course we do, it's a bit sparse and repetitive at times but the Theme song is worth the price of admission alone!!! Thank you Queen.
