I don't care what anyone says about this movie. Because when it came out, a lot of critics hated it.
However some people who reviewed Howard the Duck, also gave it a bad rating. Well I'm gonna set the record straight, you guys need to have an IQ test by the Janitor in this movie. Because it is one of the funniest movies that came out in the 80s, even though back then it was regarded as a flop.
I'm not gonna get into the story of this movie, because most of the reviews on IMDb have already done that. The main part of this story is an experiment that went wrong and transported Howard from his world to ours.
The end result was a cigar chomping duck with a very sarcastic sense of humour, he isn't a happy duck after landing on our planet. (But then again, would you be if you ended up getting transported to his planet and getting the same treatment he went through in this movie) One person who took pity on him was Beverly played by Lea Thompson. In the end Howard does come to her rescue when an accident causes a scientist to get possessed by a dark overlord.
What I find very interesting now is that with the cameos of him appearing in Guardians of the Galaxy one and two, now would be a good time for the critics and the people who gave it bad reviews, give this movie another glance.
I also believe that anyone who has seen Guardians of the Galaxy one and two, should also consider watching Howard the Duck. As it would give them an idea of what his character is like.
All in all, where the special effects and story line are concerned, That's the only area which lets it down. But if your looking for fun and a lots of laughs, this movie would fit the bill. (bad choice of words I know, sue me) Just ignore the critics and the bad reviews, give Howard the Duck a chance. It's extremely funny and it's worth watching.
