aslan adam and or lionman a it more commonly know amongst english speaking audience and start with an epic battle a king solomon and his army defeat a load of guy although i be not sure who they be and the film itself isn not too helpful in establish the fact . anyway and after king solomon have slaughter all these guy princess maria and bishop osorio and commander antoine be force to sign a treaty which let king solomon rule just about everything in sight . soon after princess maria seduces solomon and they have sex and meanwhile in the short wedding ceremony ever ( just two sentence long ) antoine wed princess maria and be plan to rebel against solomon and gain some sweet revenge in the process . antoine and his guard attack and kill solomon even though his pregnant wife princess almunia escape with her protector rostin with antoine guard in hot pursuit and after the short labour ever ( less than 5 minute or the time it take to run around a bush ) princess almunia give birth to a young baby boy who be hide in some bush away from antoine guard . unfortunately when rostin try to retrieve the little fella he find that the baby have be adopt by a pride of lion a one of their own . year later and the evil antoine now rule treat his subject with no mercy and princess maria have give birth and he have a son but rostin be also still kick around try to put together a gang of rebel to overthrow antoine and the task seem hopeless unless they can enlist the help of the legendary lionman who be more beast than man . this turkish greek co production be direct by natuk baytan a natuch baitan and be a one of a kind type of film and i find it hilariously bad but at the same time immensely entertaining . the script never seem to take itself seriously and it be a pretty funny film at time and it move along like a rocket and be never dull or boring and some of the english dubbed dialogue be just hilarious in context with what happen on screen . none of it make any sense and we get a boy raise by lion and an evil king and betrayal and dark family secret and birthmark that form the shape of lion in an element of the story that be present before the kid be raise by lion and crazy fight scene and torture scene where the post people be suppose to be tie to wobble and ancient castle interior that randomly contain zip wire and gymnastic ring and idiotic bad guy who all seem to have extensive facial hair and a central character who have a jaw line resemble a house brick and can be stab twice and have his hand cover in acid ( this acid can eat it way through steel trapdoors but be keep in a ceramic jug . ) and fall over 20 foot onto a concrete floor and yet maintain no serious injury . aslan adam be a terrifically entertaining film and i do not think i have see another film quite like it that i can compare it too and if your look for something serious then forget this but if you like o bad theyre good type film and want to have fun and laugh and be entertain then aslan adam should be at the very top of your list . total 100 % gold for bad film fan and those with a taste for the different and bizarre . on the disappointing side lionman only get his steel claw 10 minute before the end which be a shame . director bayten certainly keeps thing move along at a brisk pace although it far from well make and during the opening battle one moment guy be fight on a sand dune the next their on a grassy hill with tree in the background . there be one point where lionman use a branch to pole vault but it obviously just a long tube with a vine wrap around it . then there the scene when a bloodthirsty pack of bloodhound be suppose the chase lionman down but the dog use be obviously different breed include some of the most harmless look dog ever . there be just so many individual scene in aslan adam that be just hilarious and stupid and bizarre or all three that i could go on forever . just check the end out when lionman be jump and fly about everywhere like he can fly . there lot of blood in aslan adam although not much actual graphic gore or violence and a few stabbings and someone have their hand cut off be as graphic a it get . technically aslan adam be pretty ropey and the period costume be bright and garish featuring purple and yellow and red and various other bright colour . the fight scene be cheap but at least the filmmaker try to put as much action in a they could . the music seem like it be more suited to a classical ballet rather than an action film and be yet another bizarre aspect to aslan adam . the acting be bad and even dub you could tell the acting be bad . aslan adam be pure gold from start to finish and there be so many thing to like and laugh at and enjoy in this film that i just end up really like it . in no way whatsoever can aslan adam be consider a good film in any sense of the word but it one hell of an entertain one . i may have have to watch this one again sometime soon just to prove to myself that i do not dream it all . the best turkish action film about a man raise by lion you will ever see and period . prove popular enough to spawn a sequel and lionman ii represent the witchqueen ( 1979 ) .
