Tired of cookie cutter superheroes? To be fair, this movie didn't do well at the box office...but with so many great characters in this movie it's worth your time, plus they have a good number of memorable one liners. The actors and stoyline really make these characters shine and they go beyond the typical one dimensional formula. Some wont get the humor as Peter Weller plays not for laughs but rather dead pan portrayal make Buckaroo Banzai, the neurosurgeon, rock star, astro physicist, a great hero.

I have loved this film since I first saw it in the theater in 1984. This new blu looks and sounds fantastic, and the new interviews with the cast and crew are wonderful. Plus it has all of the extras from the way-back-when DVD release. Amazing.

This movie is great, has amazing FUNNY lines, fast action, really sets a nice pace. The sound is great, can't say enough good things about the sound, it has what you expect for the money you spend on a disk of this magnitude, the money they spent was well placed. You get high quality content. The CGI is so realistic you forget its CGI and just fall into the story and lose yourself in the emotion and staging of the drama and action. great actors. all stars in this one.

You will probably either love it or hate it. The fashion and hairstyles are SO 80's, as is the feel. Is it sci-fi? Drama? Action? Comedy? A little bit of all those things, but it's the combination that creates the magic. May need a scorecard to keep up with all the characters.

This movie is a cult classic. It has become a rare movie to find, too. My DVD was blu-ray and I had to search a number of stores to find it. I would have preferred a plain old DVD, because the price is cheaper. Nevertheless, I was able to GET the movie at Best Buy, and who knows how much it will cost in the future.
