Most helpful review Warlords Of Atlantis

  • Swashbuckling romp

    Rated - 4.0 stars  
    By a customer from Birmingham, UK , 16 Apr 2005

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    Doug McClure featured in four action films made in the 1970s (the others were At the Earth's Core, The Land that Time Forgot and the People that Time forgot) but Warlords is probably the best of the bunch. McClure puts in a solid, if not brilliant, performance with good support from the other characters. Although the special effects look a bit simplistic by today's standards the film moves with such a brisk pace that you never dwell too long on any particular effect, you are onto the next scene. However, I did think that the destruction of the ship by the giant squid towards the end of the film was quite neatly done. No gratuitous sex scenes or anything other than comic book violence means that this film can comfortably sit in the category of 'family entertainment' - so forget the ludicrous science and impossible premise of the film and indulge in some mindless escapism.

  • Wow, Great.

    Rated - 5.0 stars

    This is a fantastic film throughout, great story line, and great acting, also some very good monsters, considering it's age 1978, it's very good for it's day, and very enjoyable. The shops here in the Uk, have now stopped selling this film, but I have managed to order one.

    This film was shown in our ABC Cinema, in Warrington, all those years ago. Well worth a watch, and if you want, and can, add it to your collection.

  • It's only a bit of fun!

    Campy classic all the way, It just boggles the mind to think that seminal films such as Starwars, Jaws and Alien came from the same era!

    Good honest Sunday morning hangover material.

  • Warlords of atlantis

    Rated - 3.0 stars

    With ambitions high above its station this film is unintentionally funny. Hungover? Raining outside? This could be the one to watch.

  • Nonsense

    Rated - 1.0 star  
    By Gutterboy (388 reviews) from Sheffield , 13 Oct 2007
    Some films like this can be fun - 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea and even The Land Time Forget. This however is just dull and poor.
