Never Say Never

About This Movie

So, 'Never Say Never' from 1994 really dives into a wild, tongue-in-cheek exploration of espionage. The pacing is offbeat, almost like a fever dream where absurdity reigns. Barbara Bond—what a character—she’s not just a femme fatale; she’s a bizarre amalgamation of seduction and chaos. The practical effects are, well, you can tell they had a shoe-string budget, but that just adds to the weird charm of it all. You get this gritty, almost gritty Sin City vibe, but with a twist that makes it stand apart. It’s definitely a niche piece for collectors who appreciate the oddities of the genre, and the performances have a unique flair that keeps it engaging. Not your standard Bond knock-off, that's for sure.

This film had a limited release, and finding it in good condition can be a bit tricky. Most collectors look for the original VHS or possibly DVD versions, as later reissues have less appeal. The oddity factor certainly piques interest among niche collectors, especially those who enjoy the more unusual side of the espionage genre.
