They Live review
Daniel Corleone - wrote on 08/31/13
A typical B flick/that can b a dark comedy at time that is provocative, action packed and funny. Roddy Piper showed some earnest acting and just fits the role of Nada. " Fascinating how the humor was so effective despite the seriousness of the situation. Special effects and wardrobe may seem dated, but the messages of consumerism, fascism, greed and trust. Frank and Nada’s fight sequence was very authentic and screenplay just exceptional. Some memorable lines: The name of the game is: Make it through life." "Everybody got their own hard times these days." "We are only focused on our own gain." and “We’ll do anything to be rich.” Overall, an entertaining look at how human’s would do to gain richness even when they are stepping on their own kind. Very much familiar in this day of age especially in politics. Look out for They Live’s ultimate ending; it will have you in stitches.
