There's good stuff around the edges of the film -- all that word play and all those visual gags demand that you pay attention lest you miss something even in the slow scenes. But at the center, no magic. [01 Aug 1986, p.D1]
The first half concerns our hero's satirical misadventures on earth, except that director Huyck has the comic finesse of Hulk Hogan. The second half is an overproduced orgy of car crashes and monsters, in which Howard must save the world from the Dark Overlords of the universe. George Lucas was the executive producer. The Force was not with him. [25 Aug 1986, p.63]

Greatest film of all time!!! An extraordinary, life-changing, enlightening, movie. MARVEL´s best movie yet. It is impossible to top. Everything about this movie is magnificent. The cast, the script, the special effects, the pacing, the tone, and the plot are GOD tier quality. It just makes sense.

The best Marvel movie ever made! Very advanced for it's time pushing the bounds of human duck relations. Great film, must watch. It's going to be hard for Marvel to ever improve on this formula. They sure don't make them like this anymore.
