Electric Boogaloo: The Wild, Untold Story of Cannon Films pays tribute to the titular studio with an affectionate look back that's arguably more entertaining than much of Cannon's own B-movie product.

Fortunately, in the hands of the documentary film-maker Mark Hartley, the result is a romp through the insalubrious depths of the straight-to-video bin of your local 1980s video rental establishment. Jun 4, 2015 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Kudos has to be given to Hartley for lifting the lid on a host of bad practices and making an honest documentary that could so easily have been turned into a juvenile exercise in macho backslapping. Jun 4, 2015 | Rating: 4/5

"Electric Boogaloo" doesn't tell its story from A to Z, but rather in a digressive, choral fashion that privileges outrageous personal anecdotes over dry historical chronologies. Sep 8, 2014 | Full Review…

This is a thorough and respectful documentary - Cannon Films undeniably taught Hollywood a lesson through bad example, but whether they were ahead of their time or shysters is left open. May 10, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

While the documentary's scattershot approach makes it less examination, more vivid highlight reel, there is no denying Electric Boogaloo's abiding fodness for its subject matter. Apr 5, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

It isn't a bad thing Hartley's main concern is with having a good time, but there seems to be less attention to detail when it comes to the overall structure. Nov 13, 2018 | Full Review…

Directed with tremendous energy for much of its first half, as Cannon starts to wear out is welcome, so does this documentary. Mar 2, 2016 | Rating: B- | Full Review…
