UnowPriceless hyped garbage

Bluebell Alcock Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

Tayyab Torres Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) "The Lobo Paramilitary Christmas Special" is a 13.5-minute live action short film from 2002, so it has its 15th anniversary this year. The director is Scott Leberecht,a successful visual effects artist as well, and I see this is based on comic books apparently. I must say I am not familiar with the character of Lobo at all. Neither am I familiar with any of the three main actors in here. The story is really absurd: The Easter Bunny is sick of playing second fiddle to Santa every year, so he decides to hire Lobo to kill Papa Cringle. Lobo accepts the offer and at the same time Santa Claus takes the bunny hostage. So when Lobo arrives at Santa's place, after lots of bloodshed, he finds the Bunny as well. Santa offers Lobo thrice the amount Bunny paid him for letting him live and also offers him a nice rabbit stew. Will Lobo accepts? Something personal comes into play then and we find out Santa has his own history with the NRA. This is a very strange little film, not unentertaining, but lacks real love to detail to make it a rewarding watch. For example how does Bunny get out of the cage all of a sudden. And the ending is also a bit expected honestly. It's close, but I give this one a thumbs-down. Not recommended.

kristofer harald I have always loved Lobo since I first lay my eyes upon him. This mean killer, with the greatest look. It's a good try, to make a Lobo flick. The problem is that Lobo can't be made 'real'; at least it is very hard to make him look good (as you all know that he dose). But Ken Niederbaumer, that is the key special effects make-up artist, and Scott Leberecht, that have directed this Lobo flick, have made a great work.Of course the acting is a bit poor, but I had expected something much worse.If you get the chance to see it, I recommend you to do so. Lobo is Lobo, and I hope to see more of him in motion.10/10 (mainly because I expected something much worse)/Elforg

Purplefrankenstein I've been a Lobo fan since the early 90's. And when I heard rumors about a Lobo movie comin' together, I was pretty thrilled.Then I realized that a Lobo flick could not be made..ya know..no one could play da main man. And they would shoot it to fit pg-13.Well, with that in mind I got used to the thought that there will be a sad excuse for a Lobo flick (if it ever would be made).Making a long uninteresting story short. I found out there was a Lobo flick made by a student named Scott Leberecht, I really wanted to see it. It took time to find a copy (because all the laws around copyright and student project in general).I saw it, and it was pretty okay, I thought it would be worse. The make up effects held great class...Lobo's muscle outline could have been better.The acting and general shooting of the 13min flick had some probs. But hey, I did not expect so much. See it, it's not a great piece of work, but I have to give him cred for making it! There is a lot of fans out there (including me), and they all have expectations on a Lobo movie.Andrew Bryniarski (seems to been picked to play Lobo in da big movie also) did a good job. But I think Lobo needs some more work to fit the big screen both acting wise and dialog.Kisses /Lucy7 / 10

weskerhouse I am a big fan of Lobo. That said, I can say that the movie is in the same spirit as the Lobo issue it is based on. The film does simplify the story and remove some of the ultra violence, I assume for budgetary reasons. As a fan it is obvious that I am biased, however I do have a couple small complaints that only a die-hard fan would notice and in no way take away from the story. For instance in the comics Lobo has some pointed teeth but not fangs, also in the comics Lobo carries huge weapons but now he uses a pistol and some of the dialog just doesn't sound like what the main man would say. The only problems that a casual viewer might have is that it is sometimes hard to understand what certain characters are saying, as is common with a low budget project. Also the main problem is that the film is so hard to find to begin with. If you can find it and have some idea of the character or just don't like the holidays this is a great little film to add to your collection.
