The Kid With A Bike Full Movie Part 1' title='The Kid With A Bike Full Movie Part 1' />A movie with a heavy 8. A movie with a heavy post apocalyptic Earth theme A movie with a heavy, over the top, comical, bloody violent theme Yes this movie isnt the most original of ideas to come along, in fact its a complete rehash of many many movies weve seen many many times. The main differences here are. Canadian and New Zealand collaboration, yeah, take that. So in this universe 1. Earth has been decimated after some kind of war or whatever, everything has been destroyed leaving a familiar looking barren wasteland where people live in a primitive steampunkMad Max esque existence. Naturally everybody has gone a little crazy, everybody wears really bizarre attire, everybody carries various bizarre weapons, everybody partakes in various barbaric games, oh and everybody travels around on bikes because presumably there is no more fuel for vehicles.

We have told you not to stare at the Sun today. We have told you to use safety glasses. We have tried so very hard, and we are so very tired. Its basically youre common wild west scenario with Mad Max visuals, life is cheap and people do what they gotta do to survive. Oh and if you havent already guessed, there is indeed a violent horde of lunatics that semi rule this new land with an iron fist, and Michael Ironside is their sadistic leader picky reviewer 0 1 movie. Yeah so basically the plot revolves around this kid, called simply, Kid, yet clearly played by a much older actor. This guy lives alone and survives as best he can as a scavenger, then you have this tough cowboy type fella who aptly dresses like a cowboy. He appears to be the main hero and protagonist, or so you think, and he kinda is and kinda isnt, if you get me, a turns out to be more of a sidekick to the kid. Finally there is the obligatory female character called Apple who is rather eccentric, you find out why later on. As you can guess, all these characters get mixed up and involved with the sadistic roaming gang which leads to much fighting in order to free the land of the blood thirsty horde that grips it. Its youre basic hero story, the young lad who defies the odds with his love interest and older companion, to beat the forces of evil. Now our main young protagonist, the kid, is actually obsessed with a fictional character within the movie called Turbo Man, a comicbook character who looks like some kind of cheesy retro space ranger toy. The kid tries to imitate this character in every way, his weapons, his moves etc. At one point he even discovers some crashed spaceship thing that seemed to contain some kind of military type who just happened to look and dress like Turbo Man, or it was actually the real Turbo Man, Im not really sure, but this leads further into the whole dress up playtime angle of the movie twas an amazingly lucky coincidence he found that crashed ship too. You see, the plot plays out from the kids perspective, which is obviously immature, childish, young at heart, so everything feels light hearted and awesome, everything is an adventure and the suit just makes it feel even better. Hes not any kind of superhero or action man, but the suit makes him believe he is, plus the suit also comes with this natty wrist laser cannon thing, so not too shabby for killing bad guys huh.

Hollywood can build franchises off of just one movie then again, those franchises can come crashing down with just one movie, too. The obvious hook for this movie is the outrageously old school, retro visuals, which homage a variety of nostalgic elements from toys, bikes, clothes and kitschy junk. Turbo Man looks like something outta the 9. Indeed the old rainbow swooshes are a common visual element in this movie, they tend to pop up on various things and do give off that classic 1. Watch Law Abiding Citizen Vioz. Atari esque vibe mainly because Atari used rainbow go faster stripes as part of their gaming logo back in the 2. The kids base is adorned with lots of trinkets and dated pop culture items from this universe, but obviously look deliberately familiar to reality. While his wrist laser cannon weapon seems pretty unoriginal the way he uses it, his poses, his quick little He ManLion O moment are all instantly recognisable to the keen eye. His female companion Apple is also dressed in a very retro looking outfit, all light pastel colours with glitter makeup and a headband, she kinda looked like a walking homage to My little Pony, Jem and the Holograms and Care Bears to me, certainly the vibe I got. And finally we have the ultimate retro callback, the BMX bikes, everyone rides around on BMX bikes or similar. This is both highly amusing simply because, how the f could you travel around that terrain on a bike without getting knackered all the time. Secondly, the whole notion just looks so passe, I know thats idea but all I could think of was shitty movies like BMX Bandits. The one thing I think let this movie down was the hyper violence to be honest. If you think along the lines of the Robert Rodriguez movie franchise Machete then you know where Im coming from and what to expect. This was a disappointing aspect for me, there is nothing wrong with a good amount of violence and gore, Im all for it with adult flicks, but there needs to be a certain level of realism. I get that this movie was deliberately going for the shocking, gaudy visual effects, and to that degree it certainly works, but I just felt it was unnecessary. The movie could of been much better if the violence was toned down a bit, given a bit more edge and lost the farcical tomfoolery. The villains in the movie would have been much more enjoyable and menacing had the violence been a bit more down to earth. But when youve got body parts flying all over the show it becomes tiresome very quickly, I think you can only take it so far before you spoil what youve got. Speaking of villains and characters as a whole, they actually werent that great. Michael Ironside Zeus is obviously the best thing going here and he goes for it, chewing up the scenery like no ones business, weve seen him do this before, we know hes great at it. Our young protagonist is also pretty good actually, hes likeable, not overly big headed, not some overly tanned, pretty boy with perfect muscles, hes just a regular kid with a well styled retro hairdo. Unfortunately thats where it stops, Apple is just kinda annoying with her wide eyed wackiness, plus she has to be rescued like. Zeuss male sidekick Skeletron eh eh, is youre typical mute, insane, mask wearing, crazy weapon wielding, Mad Max esque type henchman, nothing new there. Same can be said for his female sidekick who has a typical tribal type hairdo and just grins evilly all the time.
