Almost every kid of the 70's and 80's grew up on these films and hold a special place with most of them. With that being said this is a ridiculously brilliant homage to a genre that is all but gone. This is not a film for everyone, unless you enjoyed the old school shows and films it's based on you will not get the overall joke aspect of what it is trying to deliver.
