Poor old Marvin needs a bit of a hand and fate throws him
a bone, so to speak, when it nearly kills him in a road accident
- a very funny scene!
He survives, but only just, and is put back together by a
mad scientist (our own Michael Caton) who uses a few body
parts from animals to make sure he's all there.
From wimp, Mange turns into a super cop and can not only
hear things going on at a long distance, but also sniff out
drugs from people's butts. The airport scene is hilarious.
But while there is that good side to the transplants, there
is also a bad as the animal parts begin to take over and he
finds himself humping mail boxes, spraying and finding a female
goat very attractive indeed!
Will our guy fight off his animal urges - impossible! But
he does find romance with former Survivor Colleen Haskell,
beats his police nemesis - a terrifically awful John C McGinley
- and finds a perfect balance between humans and God's creatures.
This is a no-brainer movie that is a bit hit and miss in
the humour department but is fun to watch and never gets too
gross. Well, not a lot anyway.
A note of warning, check the box for the region coding. If
you have a multi-region there's no drama, but if you want
to look at it on a single-region player or the computer then
you'll cop a Region 1 warning. Don't you bloody hate regions
on DVD?!
Conclusion: Movie 80%, Extras 70%
