I'd say 9.5, but I rated it a 10. The -0.5 for me was over the rather severe repetition of the rebar injury commentary near the end. The rest of the production was hilarious though.
I can't agree more about the severe repetition comment Vidken! I rate MR a 5.
I've probably watched Rifftrax several hundred times and I'll periodically mute one of their mock anger sessions, e.g. Mike's complaining about painting stars being hard to remove in ST Generations. *BUT*, I have never muted a section of a Rifftrax before
on the first viewing like this time.
I really wish the big three would drop the acting out of anger about how bad a movie is or about the filmmakers or actors. Another version of this anger acting is in the otherwise fantastic riff, Battlefield Earth. The guys start to talk about being in hell and what not.
I'm a huge fan of both RT and MST3K (but not CT oddly enough). I hope the guys can pick up doing movies like MR, F&F, etc and lighten up on the shorts, Voodoo Man, etc. Yes, PoD was an excellent riff of a horrible, cheesy movie but I really enjoy Rifftrax being able to take on major releases, not the horrible old stuff or public domain.
Anyway, that was a lot of my chest, back to Swing Parade 3-Riffer!
