Iron Sky (2012)

Iron Sky
After anticipating it for literally years, and travelling the 160 mile round trip to our nearest screening, I finally got to see Iron Sky last night.  I'd obviously been hoping it was amazing, but having seen the filmmakers' previous effort Star Wreck: In the Pirkinning my expectations were not too high; I basically loved the concept, admired the devotion and passion of those involved and just the fact that it was a participatory film.

It's easy to pick holes in Iron Sky, the CGI and humour were hit and miss and the whole production has a shambolic amateur feel to it, but if approached with a simple willingness to be entertained, I don't think it disappoints.  There are great characters and  some laugh out loud moments, the scene with the Indian representative (who incidentally looks a lot like Norwich's Puppet Man) at a conference of world leaders springs to mind, and most importantly it has moon Nazis and big explosive space battles.  Well worth checking out when it is released on DVD in a couple of days.
