Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!

Skunkyrate Gripping story with well-crafted characters

PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

EyeAskance An incomprehensible mess, Ultra Warrior is far and away the most relentless assault on the senses I have been subjected to in ages. With footage "borrowed" from who-knows-how-many other films, the final product is little more than a string of explosions with a threadbare story about Dack Rambo being sent into a radioactive wasteland to evaluate mining potential, and being drawn into a bloody war between mutants and slave-drivers.A painful test of endurance, but surely a badmovie monger's dream, Ultra Warrior is a must-see-to-believe experience. You will *never* mock another movie again.1/10

sexytail And yet, with "Ultra Warrior" and a couple dozen other movies, Roger Corman has done just that. Ever since he invested a couple million dollars in "Battle Beyond the Stars" he's been making zero budget sci-fi and action movies re-using the same footage. "Ultra Warrior" is particularly bad, though, because the plot and all the exposition exists simply to hold together bits of other movies.It is amusing, though. The plot involves this dude working for some big brother corporation in the future investigating mining a miracle mineral in an area controlled by mutants (and of course, evil mutant hunters) who eventually becomes "the chosen one". Every time two characters talk the film cuts away to "Lords of the Deep" or "Battle Beyond the Stars" to show us this giant fantastical plot that's supposedly going on at the same time. It's ridiculous, but that's why it's entertaining.There are also two pretty good action sequences that were actually originally filmed for this movie, so it's worth watching even if you have seen all the source material.*quote from Welles's "The Other Side of the Wind"

actionsquad The "stolen" material is pretty entertaining in how it is reused, and re framed by goofy narratives ("... anyway ...") - especially if you are familiar with - and a fan of - the source materials they are sampling. (Battletruck!!) And the President is none other than Godfather Roger Corman.Maybe a spoof, or maybe a tribute. Perhaps just a comedy. Whatever it was, it was SUPPOSED to be "bad!"Hmmm. It might be exactly made for the demographic that likes to do the Mystery Science Theater thing DIY, and sit around with friends and 'OMFG!' at how bad a movie can be. Hey wait, that's been me, too .... oh well. I reckon I'm OK with being a sucker for stuff like this. You could do a lot worse - and not much better. Even when it's not that funny, it's sure to be awesome."F*** their classics, these are MY classics!" - Max Wasteland

shawnsamsmullin This is the kind of movie that my friends and I have enjoyed watching time and time again. Why? Its unintentional comedy is off the scales. Another reviewer mentions stock footage and that's part of what makes it so entertaining. I mean they made a real effort to weave their pathetic storyline in such a way that they could use as much stock footage as possible. Also, they obviously ran out of money at the end because they completely forget plot elements and then wrap them up with non-sense basically amounts to a voice saying "all is well." There's also the ridiculous performance of the guy from Designing Women that has to be seen to be appreciated. Oh, and how about the space battles that have nothing to do with anything else. The cover also seems to be pointing to a different movie all together. It's an exercise in how to make every possible mistake. Absolutely comedic gold. Best/Worst movie of all time. If you can possibly track down a copy of this, DO IT!
