Usually, I can watch a movie and tell immediately after watching it whether or not it was a good movie. This is not the case with Attack of The Super Monsters. I am literally in a state of confusion. I cannot decide whether this is the biggest steaming pile of crap that I have ever had the misfortune of watching or if it is simply genius. Truth be told I did get a certain Wiseau-esque sick thrill from watching this "film", but seriously...I mean...it's just awful.
If you took one part Thunderbirds, one part the absolute worst Godzilla movie you've ever seen, and one part Voltron, you'd get Attack of The Super Monsters. Still not getting it? Let me break it down a little further for you:
Dinosaurs have escaped from their subterranean lair where they've been hiding out for the past 65 million years under the leadership of their evil lord Emperor Tyrannus. The dinosaurs have grown in size and intelligence to the point where they can speak our language. Emperor Tyrannus has decided to take over the Earth and destroy all humans. Fortunately, a specially trained team known as Gemini is there to stop him. Gemini consists of two siblings and two completely worthless people. The two siblings are part cyborg and in times of extreme need can fuse their bodies together to call on the hermaphroditic power of Gemini for about 3 and a half minutes.
Throughout this "movie", Gemini manages to defeat every monster that Tyrannus sends up to the surface and then the movie just sort of ends leaving us to wonder whatever happened to Tyrannus himself.
Also, the movie can't seem to make up it's mind if it wants to use claymation, rubber suits, models, or animation. All of these are used throughout the feature and some are used simultaneously.
Again, I'm not sure if this is the greatest thing in the world or the worst thing....I'll just give it a very confused look out of 5
