    Much more amusing in theory than in execution.

    Vuorensola's sci-fi comedy is uneven, its humor never quite matching the luster of its visuals.

    It's not terrible, by any means: just not nearly as funny or cruel as its killer premise suggests.

    Super cool movie. I love the concept of Nazis from the dark side of the moon. The movie is not only absolutely funny but transports also a great portion of morale. Expand
  2. Iron sky has a great mix of comedy, movie references and criticism of modern culture. Comedy parts are very well structured and in just right places. Also visuals are handled well, knowing that this is not Hollywood production. I would definitely recommend it to all. Expand
  3. The concept and beautiful absurdity of the idea surpasses vastly the final realisation.
    Some moments of the film are brilliant, sublime and tr
    uly very funny, but then they are surrounded by others that just show glimpses of potential fun to be exploited buried deep in the dark side of the Moon.
    The cast, the narrative, the visuals, the direction and the dialogue are all an experiment on "hit and miss".
    In my opinion it is still a film to watch (if it does not pain your wallet to much), just be warned that you will find yourself at the end wishing it would have lived to its full promise of bizarre, demented fun.

    The comedy is predictable, the characters shallow and boring. There are a lot of enjoyable moments, but most attempts at comedy fail. Overall the film does not hold up to a potentially epic concept. Expand
