I want to complain about your Mosquito review; My sides hurt from laughing!

Paul H.

Unexpectedly good.  Not great but good.
The dumb people are dumb.  The smart people are dumb, and the mosquitos are F@#$ing brilliant.

Nevertheless, the dumb people play off of eachothers dumbness quite well and no one seems to notice or care.  

3 green globs
(mainly because it really isn't that bad and the end house scene reminds me of _Night of the living dead_. (or _return of the living dead_ or _The Fog_ or any other stuck in a house with dead things outside movie.
 

The Thing

This was an okay movie with an okay cast.  Gunner Hansen was a welcome sight,especially with his chainsaw.  The visual fx were surprisingly well done, no cheesy computer generated stuff like Xena or Hercules.  Overall, an okay film that had a lot of potential.  

I think this movie was better than you say it is, it wasnt that bad acting and it was pretty much a comedy scary movie rather than just a scary movie. If you watch right before the bikini scene you'll see two little girls playing in the sand, I think those girls will be famous some day.

Well well well, this is one of those movies where you rent it just for the hell of it and you actually dont come away disoppointed. It has pretty bad acting but like Paul said the dumb people are dumb and thats what makes it funny. Rent it. You'll enjoy the cheesy ending.

Just alittle factoid about this film.The guy playing Hendricks(Ron Ashton)was a founding member of legendary pre-punk band The Stooges(with Iggy Pop),widely considred one of the most influential rock bands of all time.Oh..and this movie sucks.

I didn't mind this movie. The good parts were the plot and the action sequences. This movie even has some comical aspects such as the fact that poor Hendricks is made a b***h by pretty much everyone in the movie. Another funny part was when the chick got the stinger in the ass. However there were quite a few bad parts. Let's start off with the horrible acting. The only good actor was the black guy, he at least emphasized his lines. Hendricks by far was the worst actor I think I've ever seen, his lines are just horrible. I would recommend you checking this movie out, you'll deffinitly want to see Hendricks being made a b***h.

hey you forgot some good funny things they said. Like...."i'm a real meteorlogist a one that chases metors"what is not true at all and this isn't science fiction its science fact".

This movie was excellent.  The acting was pretty bad as was some of the script writing, but it was hilarious.  The mosquitoes were awesome and they all played off each other well.  Throw in a gratuitous breast shot, followed by a stabbing in the butt and it was a classic.  The mosquitoes were sweet and the screeching sound effects were awesome.

Awesome!  Sean Connery lookalike lops heads off giant bugs with chainsaw!  It's 'Highlander' meets 'Them!' meets 'The Evil Dead'!!

Actually, do you want to know what amazed me about this movie?  The black guy didn't die.  Think about that; cheap monster movie with lots of bloody, violent death, and the black guy is not a victim.  I'm guessing the so-called scriptwriter didn't have an 'ethnic minority' character in mind.  The fact that Parks is black was just an accident of casting, and there wasn't time for a rewrite or something.

Oh, and this movie ripped off 'Aliens' really bad.  I mean REALLY bad.  I mean I was watching it at a party, and in one spot I hollered "they're comin' outta the goddamned walls!" at the same moment as another person in the room said the exact same thing.

I have to make my sister watch this movie.  She's got this bug problem... I'm evil.

Jeff

ah, this is a good old cheesy dud that I like. Super-imposed mosquitoes, a stun-butt, & Gunnar Hansen with a chainsaw - doesn't get cheesier than that.  :)

Jim

This movie fits the "so-bad-it's-good" mold to a tee. We have tons of giant killer puppet mosquitoes, a guy wielding a 7-foot chainsaw, people getting killed with cheesy special effects, and actors that are on the same level of talent as soft porn stars. See this movie.

Tim Smiles

The film really did suck. thats why I liked it! The special FX were so poor me and my friends refer to it as 'Fakely fake' and the acting was crap too. oh well, overall a well good laugh!
