Amazon Women on the Moon (1987)

Plot of Amazon Women on the Moon

A comedy spoof of 1950s science fiction flicks.

Review of Amazon Women on the Moon

Amazon Women on the Moon is an obscure comedy that is meant to be taken lightly, very lightly. So lightly you may want to indulge in an intoxicant or two before viewing. Along the vein of such classics as Airplane, The Naked Gun, Hotdog and Hamburger, AWOTM is one of the funniest spoof flicks ever. And clocking in at only 1 hour 25 minutes, it's not long enough to become tedious. I can't say too many good things about this film, yes some of the comedy is slightly dated, but not so much that it ceases to be funny. Arsenio Hall's segment has to to be one of the funniest things that I have ever seen. There really isn't much to the plot except that we are supposed to be watching a 1950's sci-fi movie with commercial breaks for hilarious products and there are even technical difficulties! Trust me, this is one funny movie if you like absurd humor. And with some of the idiotic comedies that are out there these days, this one fits right in.

With a ton of famous actors, actresses and comedians from the time, Amazon Women on the Moon is a movie that should be in any comedy fan's library. I have fond memories of seeing this on HBO as a kid and it will always have a place in my DVD collection.
