I didn't like this ten years ago and I don't know what I was thinking. It is an absolute camp classic, funny on purpose without sacrificing sincere silliness, colorful and ridiculous in the best way. Plus, Flash's main role as a hero is to just be really stubborn about the idea that everybody should be friends and team up against the oppressor - very good, very anime, and gives every other character their chance to shine. The only thing that knocks off points is lingering Yellow Peril designs.

FLASH! a-ah... Somehow avoided this in my childhood. Intentionally campy space Hunger Games with great costume design, practical effects, and a pumping soundtrack by Queen. Yellow-Peril Ming got less scary as the movie progressed. Disappointed we never saw Orenalla Muti's secret pleasure palace built for two. Timothy Dalton's Robin Hood somehow becomes Emperor. Melody Anderson gets a slave drunk so the latter can be raped. Fav scene: Flash rallying the Birdemic troops.

Under Quarantine Film Reviews #82: Unapologetically cheesy and intentionally over-the-top humor accompanied by an iconic Queen soundtrack with some memorable performances, especially Max von Sydow. Its no point discussing its flaws because its gonna come across as pedantic, just enjoy the show.

Fuck Avengers: End Game. This is true comic movie. Why, you wonder? Easily explained: Colorful. Max von Sydow (RIP) owns as Emperor Ming. Brian Blessed is having time of his life. All actors take the project seriously (at least it gives the impression). Then it was something more .... what was it .... oh yes: Queen!

On the glory of camp. Flash Gordon is a children's film for adults, a sad reminder of a time when comic book adaptations had zero pretenses about being anything more than dumb fun. Under Hodges' knowing eye, it's a glorious celebration of adolescent heroism shot on gaudy sets designed by Donati that are almost Fellini-esque in their mix of art and kitsch. Jones is a bit of a wet blanket as Flash, but Von Sydow makes a devilishly sly Ming, and Blessed chews scenery with shouty exuberance.
