Wrestler Hulk Hogan takes on a new guise as a space warrior in a science-fiction action comedy that shows his wrestling days have taught him the full range of facial expressions, especially anguished looks. He's less successful spouting such dialogue as 'I spend more time saving worlds than living in them'. It's a comment on Hogan's way-out presence and appearance that the wild-haired, wild-eyed Christopher Lloyd is allowed to represent the essence of normality as the head of the suburban family upon whom Hogan descends. Lloyd's character can't quite grasp the concept of alien bounty hunters being out to get the incredible Hulk. 'A couple of leeches,' growls Hogan by way of explanation, 'they make their living off the blood of others.' 'You mean' gasps Lloyd, 'investment bankers? '. It's in keeping with this kind of humour that not many things in this film turn out the way you'd expect, in a comedy that, though by no means great, is more fun than many. Certainly Hogan's best starring vehicle to date.
