Making Megaforce is a loving look at the much maligned (non) blockbuster from Hal Needam about a super cool super force taking on bad guys with super weapons and flying motorcycles. It was crushed by the critics and died at the box office.
I kind of like Megaforce (my piece on the film is here ).
The film is entertaining which is enough. I liked it enough to be curious about
how they would do a feature look at the making of the film.
The documentary isn’t bad. It is very much a labor of love
for everyone on screen and behind the cameras. Barry Bostwick the star of
Megaforce is all over this film and was one of the producers. It’s an interesting look at how the film came
to be, what the people hoped for it to be and what happened after. There is a chunk of the film on fandom.
It’s a solid look at the film and it’s legacy. At the same time,
I’m not sure if I need to see it again. I say that because some of the film is
more interesting than others (I’m not a fan of the fan stuff)
Worth a look for the curious.
