This was the single greatest movie of all time. And it didn't even have to hack time to achieve that.
It has laser raptors, Barbarianna, kung fu Hitler and animated sequence like GI Joe.
If none of the above interests you, then I don't know how to help you. But seek help.

Most of all it was 100% historically accurate.

"It's the Viking Age."
"That explains the laser raptors."

Most historical movie ever.
And as a hack historian myself, I can say that with authority.

Smart move keeping it to 30 minutes, it was fun but the joke was just starting to get old when the credits rolled.

I'd be up for a sequel set in 1995.

So how long you til Hasslefree makes some homage minis?

We laughed our asses off for a half hour. I stand corrected. It was fantastic.

Solid movie. The pacing was off at some points and it could not have been longer than 30 minutes, but alas, it's free and fun to watch. Soundtrack added to my Spotify.

I think the pacing stuff was intentional. I agree the soundtrack totally made this for me. Kung Fury is hands down one of the funnest things I've watched lately.

I tought I was going to hate it. but instead I absolutely loved it. The lenght was just right and the music was fantastic. on top of that all of those references.

Absolutely one of my favorite movies in some time.

Certainly better than Iron Sky.

Although that really didn't take much. I thought Iron Sky was gak. All my friends raved about it (but they loved sharknadoes 1-17 - did they make that many? Seems like it). I no longer talk to most of them as a result.

Iron Sky messed up because they didn't commit either way. They could have hammed it up, gone for endless camp and ridiculous humor, or played it completely straight and had the whole concept be the joke.

Instead they had some camp, some humor and some straight, and it never meshed well and as such the movie never caught its stride.


Kung Fury really only suffers from being rushed, but that kind of works for it anyways.
