Customer Reviews of Lexx Series 4 Volume 2
"Yes, my Prince." Okay, this volume is a definite step up from the stumbling volume one in this series. However, there is a tendency for careless filmmaking in these episodes. There is a lack of continuity in a couple episodes, not to mention a couple episodes are wrapped up with poorly written plot devices. But a lot of the classic Lexx humor that was mostly absent from vloume one has returned. Here are the episodes:
4.05 Xevivor--Xev, now a cult celebrity due to the exposure in episode "P4X," is offered the chance to take part in a parody of the TV hit show "Survivor" where ten hyper-masculine men with biceps to spare vie for the chance to have one glorious, televised intimate encounter with Xev of B3K. Stanley enlists the help of Robot Head 790 to find his way on to the show as a wild card contestant. There is plenty of great humor in this episode. It's just too bad the ending was so poor, with an incredible lack of continuity when Kai arrives suddenly after being told by 790 that he is an hour's flight away. This could have been a classic in the series.
4.06 The Rock--This is easily the worst episode here, with the script, time and again, crossing the line from sexy to just plain dirty. In a previous episode Stanley was given the title of King of Newfoundland by President Priest, and in this episode he comes down to claim his title with some slightly humorous moments. The ending of this episode was another ridiculous moment; and there was another lapse in the continuity so that all three main crew members could be together while the ridiculous ending wrapped things up.
4.07 Walpurgis Night--This is where this particular volume picks up some speed with a parody of Dracula. Although the character of Renfield could have been much more interesting, and the Boom Operator dips the microphone into view at one point, there are three alluring Goth chicks that come to dine with the Count at the Feast of Walpurgis. Near the end Stan rallies the townsfolk to march up to the castle after giving a mangled version of the "Freedom" speech from the movie "Braveheart" with the rallying cry of "Dead Thing Pie!" See the episode and that last part will make humorous sense.
4.08 Vlad--Yes! This is one of those rare Lexx episodes where I was actually concerned for the safety of the crew, particularly Kai who battles Vlad, a Divine Executioner from the Light Universe. This episode has some crazy camera angles that add some excellent flavor to the insane proceedings, and the ending is very satisfying. This episode captures The Lexx magic that has been strangely absent from this series thus far. Well done!
Overall, this was entertaining, with a great last episode that makes me want to watch the next volume as soon as possible. Take it easy.
suprise
I am not a fan of sci-fi. i am not even a big fan of tv shows. but one night, i accidentally came across LEXX. I still to this day don't know why I watched the whole episode that i did, but i have been hooked ever since. If i was not around to watch it, I had to tape it.
For a show that's on the low end budget scale with cheesy effects, i find myself asking why do i watch a show, that not a single one of my friends, or family or work buddies have ever heard of! The reason is simple, LEXX is very origonal, funny, and believe it or not, smart. Where Star trek boldly goes, LEXX just wants to survive. Each Character is so compelling that you actually care about them. Stanley, the ... captian by mistake, Xev, the bombshell vixen warrior who constantly craves [love] but can't get it, and kia, the dead hero of the show (the mr. spock so to speak). I started watching during season 2, and watched every episode since. Try to catch it on the sci-fi channel, then buy any one of these dvd sets. It's very entertaining and never takes itself seriously, the ... graphics are hidden behind great acting (seriously) and complex but hilarious most of the time plots. Give it a shot...please.
Series Four kicks into High Gear and Doesn't Look Back
The first four episodes of Series Four were kind of lackluster, though they all had their high points. But starting with Xevivor, Series four chugs down some serious octane.
In Xevivor, Xev is both the prize and the judge in a reality show that is ultimatly attacked by savage carrots.
In the Rock, Stan becomes the King of Newfoundland. He has finally traveled far enough across the two universes to meet himself. Kai does a nice improv of the BrunnenG war song.
Walpurgis Night and Vlad both take place in Transylvania where Kai meets one of the few beings deadlier then he is.
Everyone should buy this and all the other Lexx DVD's and maybe they'll make a sequil to this wonderful series. But, probably not.
