Kung Fury is what you get when you take 80's action movie cheese and mix with a healthy dose of satire and every 80's movie cliche you can imagine. The result is just pure awesomeness. The original movie was only supposed to be about 10-20 minutes but when they put it on Kickstarter suddenly the money came rolling in and they just kept adding to it and adding to it until it topped out at 40 minutes. The story itself is... every 80's movie ever made. You've got the buddy cop story. You've got the cool 80's hacker. You've got a revenge motive. You've got martial arts. And you have David Hasselhoff. And there's also time travel, laser raptors, Viking babes, Thor and the most evil martial artist of all time Adolf Hitler a.k.a. Kung Fuhrer. It's ridiculous. It's silly. And it's altogether awesome. Do yourself a favor and check it out on Youtube.

There's only so far you can take a gimmick, and for me it's one viewing of Kung Fury. Don't get me wrong, I thoroughly enjoyed the silly madness that first time, but as a film it's a total one trick pony with very little to offer past that initial watch.Speaking as someone who actually lived through the 80s, it's nice to see an interest in the era, but honestly, this is not the 80s. Rather it is a mish-mash of over inflated and grossly exaggerated pop culture references. The acting is terrible and it really does come across like what it is - a pretty amateur short film that had access to some third tier CGI.The hype around the film has somehow blown it up to this status where people either genuinely think that it's a good piece of cinema or they take it 100% seriously as a document of the 80s which is utterly ridiculous. As a shallow spoof, it's splendid, but ultimately annoying and not re-watchable in the slightest.The best thing about this film is that they managed to get the brilliant David Hasselhoff to sing a truly magnificent song in a truly magnificent music video, and in that context the silliness actually works. However, as a whole film it falls on its ass after some very iight analysis.Definitely worth watching at least once, but when the title music is far superior to the actual movie then it's clear that the whole film is little more than a hollow prod which plays on some big stereotypes.

WOW! what an awesum film on Hitler - this has to be seen to be believed - wish it was a movie it is so Terrific..... well worth watching ...

The music, the cars, the action, all a fan could want of a short like this, and now the full feature is on it´s way, and the theme by the HOFF, it´s such a great track, i have on my car, everyday i hear it, long live the 80´s :)
