Negative Space: campy
- Almost Elvis
-
Elvis has become our Hercules: a hero on the way to becoming a god. When I hear, in “Almost Elvis,” that “Elvis is a name for something that we have in us, or we don’t,” it is hard not to think about the similar statements for other gods and divinities.
- Flash Gordon
- This is the best-acted campy space opera ever. With a soundtrack by Queen that kicks butt. Max von Sydow was awesomely understated in this movie. His every body movement is in character and adds depth to an otherwise simple movie. the costuming and the prop design is beautifully close to the original strip. The movie is presented in letterbox format (2.35:1), in English.
