Leave your thoughts about The Meteor Man.
| Independent (UK)Adam Mars-JonesThere is a pleasing off-kilter balance to the view of his world, where the good guys have all the best lines, but the baddies have a monopoly on dress sense. |
| eFilmCritic.comScott WeinbergFirmly among the ranks of Condorman and The Return of Captain Invincible in both quality and in how fondly it will be remembered. |
| User ReviewDea SGreat, funny movie with top bill actors/comedians. |
| User ReviewPeter PI found this film on dvd, one of the most complete hero films ever made and one of the best, if not the very best. Featuring an ensemble cast that includes: James Earl Jones, Robert Guillaume (Benson) and Marla Gibbs (The Jeffersons), The Meteor Man contains a hero who is doing his best as a teacher (but not receiving respect from others) who is hit by a meteor and survives. He gains many powers from the meteor once he recovers and his neighbourhood takes him up as their hero, despite his reluctance, and he begins his war on crime. |
| User ReviewZach RA real classic Loved it, had me laughing out loud, really great, nothing like the old good days, it's rare to see a movie like this, it was for me really unique and great. |
| User ReviewJoshua LI love this movie it had great action and it shows a postive parts about keeping our neighborhoods safe from crime wish we had a superhero unreal life to clean up these streets |
| User ReviewShawnee 0A real story of triumph and sticking up for your beleifs...And laugh out loud funny! |
| User ReviewJan HLove and money: No one twists and turns the two together any better than Henry James. He really is a kind of TV soap opera precursor. It must be, at least in part, due to his real fascination with and passion for opera. I have to say that I was surprised to learn the costumes were nominated for an Academy Award. My initial gut reaction was that the clothes looked 1) too modern for the turn of the century, and 2) like a kind of mix-and-match hodgepodge of older and newer. But what do I know about clothes? I think Charlotte Rampling's is the most memorable performance. But then I always like the darker characters : ) As an aside, from an old English major, James is a challenging read. If you are inspired to read Wings because of this movie -- which would be great : ) -- don't be discouraged if the reading is a tough go. Don't give up! To get used to his style, maybe you could check out his short stories, or if you know The Turn of the Screw, |
| User ReviewJagua Oone of my favorite movies as a kid, still is. |
| User ReviewJohn FThis was the first movie I saw with a black super hero. My favorite part was at the end when the leader of the golden lords and meteor man have that fight and get thrown into to that 'book on wheels' truck. Then they start using all the stuff from touching the books. When they did that fashion show...it was the bomb! |
