BIOSphereopts Plan 9 has been dethroned! For bad movie connoisseurs THIS is the bad movie of bad movie badness. It is the Babe Ruth baseball card of bad movie collections.The first time I saw it I was utterly amazed by the shameless thievery of other classic movies. But this doesn't take away from the experience, it adds to the laughter and utter enjoyment one can get from a bad movie without 3 silhouettes at the bottom of the screen.If you have a taste for bad movies then you will be left fully satiated by the corn and cheese this thing brings to the table. It is a must see!
Jay-Are This world saving makes Al Adamson and Ed Wood look like choirboys in comparison! And surely this is nothing for squeamish Indiana-Jones or Star-Wars-buffs or even Flash-Gordon-fans. Instead you can expect salvos of unintended laughs, especially because of daring cheekiness concerning copyrights. Therefore "The Man who saves the world" has supposedly never been shown outside Turkey for understandable reasons. "Great" and totally weird costumes as well as unorthodox acrobatics will put you over the edge. Maximum trash galore, but lots of redundant and recurring scenes makes this a total bore after a while. Don't watch this alone or without alcohol!
QAOSbringer Old Turkish movies are usually inelaborate and carelessly done. Because, most of the movies are mass production, directors were shooting many films at the same time. Their aim was huge income with tiny budget. A few film handled the story, scenes, actors and costumes with a high quality. But this is not that kind of movie. Story was meaningless, there were lots of thing at the same time without any logic, reason or explanation. Scenes were awful, they contained countless mistakes. Costumes and design were terrible, they looked like taken from a cheap market to imitate the Star Trek and Star Wars.If you watch the movie you probably won't understand anything whether you know movie culture and Turkish perfectly. There is lots of stolen scenes from Star Trek and Star Wars, and usage of them is very weird. This movie produced for making an action/science fiction movie like Star Wars and Star Trek. But it can't even come close to those films. You will just see leaping men, exploding rocks and splitted heads.It is strange this movie took 1,391 times 10 vote and achieved a median 10 points and weighted average 5.7 points. It doesn't deserves all of those 10 points. If you look at 5.7 points and think "hmm, it should be an average movie, i should watch this", please don't. It will just send you to edge of insanity, nothing more. So you may ask why all those 10 points. It is because of two things: 1) Turkish people are used to watch bad movies 2) the famous phrase "so bad it's good". The main aim of the movie may be action/science fiction, but it turned to "comedy/parody" for especially the Turkish teenagers. So, it may be the worst movie ever if we consider it as an action/science fiction A-movie, it may be best Turkish movie if we consider it as a comedy/parody Thrash movie.However, it not better than Plan 9 From Outer Space movie. Don't think Dunyayi Kurtadan Adam had better production techniques, better actors, or better scenes than Plan 9 From Outer Space when seeing their ratings (3.5 vs 5.7). Because Dunyayi Kurtaran Adam deserves the "bottom 10 list" of IMDb, and this 5.7 rating just proves how faulty is the rating system of IMDb.
micol972 You know how a movie can be so bad it's funny? Well, this movie is beyond that. It's so bad it gets bad again. Real bad.I'm assuming that the director, producer and script writer were all in elementary school when they made this movie. They make Godfrey Ho look like Martin Scorsese. The ridiculous story, the non-existing acting, the horrible costumes and special effects, the god-awful editing, the atrocious sound mixing.. They all combine to forge this true masterpiece of crap.I've seen a lot of bad movies, and some of them are still entertaining even though poorly made. The incoherence and lack of quality in every aspect of this movie just makes it an agonizing 90 odd minutes.I would give it a zero rating if I could.
