IRON SKY [2012]

Älymystö vocalist and Star Wreck director Timo Vuorensola hams it up in the sci-fi b-film Iron Sky.
Playing like a serial adventure of yesteryear, the film takes the concept of a Nazi invasion from the moon and has an absolute ball with it.
It teeters between witty political satire and just plain dumb but never ceases to have fun doing it.  For the limited budget that the producers had to work with, it's actually quite a striking looking picture with CGI that may not look realistic but fits with the pulpy tone that is was trying to set.  For what it's worth, I'd recommend it to anyone that isn't embarrassed to watch a film about space Nazis in the future.
