I personally didn't like the movie but I love this review and I love that your kid loves it so much. Made me remember how that feels when you are young.

Thank you! It's fun to see him so excited about it! Like how I was when I was kid and watched Star Wars and Indiana Jones

I remember when video stores first started. I was about 6-8. I always wanted to rent Flash Gordon. I didn't know it was a silly, campy presentation. I took it as seriously as Star Wars. The scene when he sticks his hand in that thing was so scary and suspenseful to me. I thought his fight with Timothy Dalton on the floating disc thing was the most exciting thing ever.

Flash Gordon's pretty wild. Great soundtrack too!

I remember how I felt when I saw Star wars episode 1 in theaters as a child. I also remember how I felt when I saw the last of the new movies.
