Summary: Bought the DVD...
Review: and it's not bad (when I say this I mean the quality of the DVD). I bought this for my sister for christmas and we watched this together. The movie is excellent as well as the sound but the picture looked a little bland. Usually when an old film gets made into a DVD it would have a more remastered, colorful look to it but this version looked like I was watching the old VHS version. I don't regret getting this film because along with my sister I love it but my only gripe is with the picture quality.

Summary: Ha Ha Hah Victory! Finally a dvd.
Review: It's great to see that a studio is releasing this underground classic on dvd. It will finally be mine. I originally taped this movie off hbo in the early eighties when I was 5 years old. I used to run around elementary school impersonating the movie's scene stealer, Tony Torpedo. 'NOW HE'S GONNA GET THE CHAIR, I'D LIKE TO SEE THE SON OF A BITC# GET OUTTA THAT!' It must be one of my favorite movies of all time, because I can't get tired of it. The Italian actor, Terence Hill, was a great leading character. He had a slick, confident presence that made him perfect for the role of Dave Speed. Ernest Borgnine was brilliant as Willy Dunlop 'The Sarge'. He was always flustered and getting angry at Speed for his superpower claims, but couldn't accept the obvious evidence that Dave wasn't lying. And The sarge's niece/Speed's girlfriend, Evelyn, was hot. I used to fantasize about her giving me mouth to mouth like she did for Dave when he made believe he drowned. I want to keep some of the other fantastic characters like Rosy Labouche, Sylvius, and Torpedo's lackey goon, Paradise, duly noted, without actually describing their humorous significance to the movie. The special effects, although exceptionally good for 1979, the year it was made, are too corny for today's over-abundant standard use of computer animation. As far as the audio quality is concerned, the goofy music added a lot to the fun atmosphere this movie gives off. I fished around european music websites carefully and successfully downloaded the soundtrack of this movie onto cd, and now I bought the dvd to follow. You see, unlikely things can happen when you apply yourself. Anyway, if you want to see a very original and unique super-hero movie that is just fun to watch, this is a great choice.

Summary: OMG
Review: Last time I saw this movie it had to be over 22 years ago. I remember little, but what little I do remember was hillarious. HBO used to show this movie over and over and we just couldn't get enough of it. Looking forward to seeing it again soon. The really bad acting, yep as a kid it stood out to me, made it so b movie ish you just couldn't resist it.

Plot: Essentially there is a cop who gets super powers (can't remember exactly how, I think lightning hits him) and he and his buddy, Earnest Borgnine, are trying to disarm some threat/bad guy. The only real parts I can remember are him walking on the ceiling in one scene. And then of course at the end when he blows a bubble with his gum so large it's a giant helium bubblegum baloon that he uses to fly over the San Francisco bridge and get the bad guys.

Summary: Still watchin' it after all these years...
Review: Sad but true: this was one movie I never missed when it came on HBO way back when I was but a wee `Norch. I musta seen it a zillion times before they finally yanked it from the rotation. Sadly, I never saw it again `til I grabbed it on VHS several years later. And when I saw it again for the first time in almost two decades, I couldn't believe how corny and ridiculous the whole thing was. Apparently, I was very easily entertained at the age of seven...

It had a pretty ridiculous plot: the 'hero' Dave Speed (played by Terence Hill), a rookie cop who gets irradiated and gains superpowers, tries with the help of his partner Sgt. Dunlop (Ernest Borgnine) to stop a mob-run counterfeiting ring. The really fun part for me is listening to Terence Hill trying to hide his accent when he speaks. You can still hear it pop up quite a bit; he sounds kinda French, even though I believe he's Italian. And, like any superpowered type, Speed has a weakness: whenever he sees the color red, his powers fail him.

Then there's the ridiculous array of characters, headlined by a trio of mob henchmen who go through many a bad attempt at Three Stooges routines in an effort to take out our hero. This trio's front man 'Paradise' wears a silly fedora/Panama-looking hat, loud Hawaiian-style flower shirts, gold chains, and white patent leather shoes; he's part Disco, part 'Miami Vice'. All three mooks are such ridiculously overdone parodies of mob hoods, it's downright ludicrous. They also take their lumps, and then some, in a way that makes the Keystone Cops look like a hardened veteran SWAT team. Their guitar-swinging 'fight' with hero Speed in the middle of the film makes the antics of the `Police Academy' movies look high brow! Which is sorta ironic, `cuz I'd much rather watch this movie seven times than watch the entire `Police Academy' feature film catalogue once...

But even through all this wide world of dumbness, I musta watched my SUPER FUZZ video several dozen times before I decided to trade up to that newfangled DVD Now I can watch it without all those pesky scan lines and tracking problems gettin' in the way!

I guess I'm still very easily entertained, hmmm? I think there's something wrong with me...

Summary: Only for those who saw it when it was released
Review: The only mistake was replacing Bud SPencer with Ernest Borgnine(who is a great actor. this film is one that is from a "genration" specific era. ghost and mr chicken, nutty professor, pufnstuf, house of usher, godzilla vs. megalon, they call me bruce, sclock,- if you are reflective on these films, then you will love this, and the soundtrack is great.
