the narrative is more complex than the usual mindless science-fiction action concoction.

Shockingly, ridiculously, almost stupidly entertaining.

Oct 17, 2007There once was 5 teenagers. Me, Z, my three buddies from class K, C and M, and M's flatmate R. We went down for beer and videos in the local convinient store and all gawked in amazement at the new release of the live action version of Fist of the North Star!! The year is of course 1995, the hottest shit on the computer is Descent. Amazing game that features both horizontal, vertical <i>and</i> diagonal tubes to fly through. Swoooosh! M and R had connected their computers via LAN so we could play up to a whole two players against eachother at any one time. Legend of the Overfiend is finally over, me and K seriously enjoyed that one, especially the scene with the poor nurse thats unfortunate enough to experience the 'coming' of the overfiend, and the gigantic penis that carves through tokyo. While me and K reflects on the art that is Legend of the Overfiend, R takes a loud game of Descent on the PC and M and C do their best to illustrate different combat techniques of 'The Fist'. Apparently The Fist is not fond of TV's as C proudly demostrates a roundhouse kick that ends with his flat sole directly in the back of the TV which tumbles over on its front and breaks the glass in half! Long silence..... Then me, K , R and M demonstrates what The Fist would do to fucking pansies on C! All in a very friendly manner mind you. We are not complete oblivious to the humor of the situation. A phonecall later I discover my mother is not prone to letting five teenagers come pick up her TV at 11.30 pm to take to one of her sons friends and watch movies. Whaddayaknow? Luckily R and M are on a very friendly basis with their upstairs neighbor that, in exchange for some black sabbath albums, agree to loan us their TV. I kick R's ass in Descent while M connects the TV and C and K goes to get more beer. Fist of the North Star I remember very little of, but with a backstory like this, how could I rate it low?!? If you read this review for an opinion on the film I'm really sorry. I'll buy you a beer next we meet!a z Super Reviewer
