A few things to add / provide alternative viewpoint on:
- Not just the dialogue, but also all the character concepts, plot points, technobabble, etc, must be contained in one line / ten words or less. Everything about this movie is confined to a single dimension.
- The hero is played by someone much more smarmy and less manly than Dean Cain. That's.. all I have to say about that.
- The villain, rather than Draco, I can't help but see as Jared (Jerid? however you want to romanize it) from Zeta. A douche who spends more time on his hair than on planning his evil schemes, who seems to think HE is the protagonist of his own story, and is constantly bewildered when things fall apart on him.
- If you really want to inflict this movie on yourself, you may want to leave your TV's volume low. The terrible sound balance will allow you to infer what's happening from the CGI and the sound effects - the dialogue is not really necessary and you may cause injury either through direct brain damage, or from laughing too hard that someone actually shipped this as the final cut.
That said, for the time, the CGI robots really weren't all that bad, and we DID bust up laughing a few times while watching. So it wasn't a total loss.
Favorite lines: Bad Guy General: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! (as he is blown up by his own forces) Our Hero (tm): No kiss for you. (to his new GF's father, a 350 pound black man in an eye-hurting bathrobe)
