After watching other movies with Hogan in the lead role like Mr. Nanny, I'm telling myself Hogan's acting career is through. I was stunned to see him in another film, this one made before Mr. Nanny. I must say after watching Suburban Commando, well done Hogan!
Hogan plays Shep Ramsley, a space warrior who has crashed down on Earth after destroying an evil emperor. Here on Earth, Shep must repair his ship, and rents a room in Charlie Wilcoxes (Christopher Lloyds) ownership. But while in the suburbs, the evil emperor sends out two bounty hunters to destroy Shep and Charlie, one of the hunters is my favorite character: Hutch played by the Undertaker. Can Shep and Charlie save themselves or more important, the world!?
Now this film is cheesy but in a good way. The special affects are crap, but in a very light way. The graphics looked like computer pixel generation but you forget all about it when Shep lands on Earth. Funny jokes include Shep punching a mime, playing an arcade game about defeating aliens, bombing the paperboy with his own newspaper, and trying not to get frozen by his own weapons. Chris Lloyd does a good job as the suspicious land owner who saves a girl by putting on Shep's warrior suit, blasting a hole through his wall, getting frozen by two bank robbers, and having to steal his angry bosses trophies to save Shep. Overall, good film and it shows that Hulk can at least act and do it well. If you had to pick one Hulk Hogan film with him starring as the lead role, choose Suburban Commando!
