Quickie Review: 'Krod Mandoon'
OK, let's get a really quick review up here:
"Krod Mandoon and the Flaming Sword of Fire"
Thumb up or thumb down?
I'm going to be really courageous and go with a...thumb sideways.
There's definitely some funny stuff here, but not nearly enough; also, some first-rate comic actors, too, like Matt Lucas ("Little Britain USA") and Sean Maguire - he's Krod - is good here too. It's a nearly-all-Brit cast, and as you know, the Brits do genre satire better 'n anyone else in the solar system...the holy grail being "Monty Python and the Holy Grail."
As mentioned, Matt Lucas as the evil Chancellor Dongalor is the standout; also good, Philly comic Kevin Hart as hapless magician Zezelryck.
But the series (Comedy Central, 10) needs to be funnier, much funnier. Maybe in time...
Grade: B

For the amount of time put into the first episode, I've got to say I was completely disappointed. I'm feeling some parody to "Legend of the Seeker" series based on the sword of truth, but seriously lacking in comedic content or any real plot. Two thumbs down.
Personally, I thought it was sorta mediocre; having only sexual puns and jokes that probably went over my head. I give it one thumb up? I mean it's not like I'm supposed to watch this show, I'm fourteen years old and it's a schoolday lol.
"also good, Philly comic Kevin Hart as hapless magician Zezelryck."
It pains me anyone thinks that his performance in this show is "good".
