directed by Stephan Elliot

The Return of Captain Invincible

The Return of Captain Invincible (1983) more movies like this

directed by Philippe Mora
featuring Alan Arkin, Christopher Lee, Kate Fitzpatrick, Bill Hunter, Graham Kennedy

This patchy, uneven combination of fantasy and musical comedy is hilarious in parts and embarrassing in others, though the premise has great potential in itself -- a screwball Captain Invincible is out to save the world from his nemesis, Mr. Midnight, the white supremacist. Captain Invincible (Alan Arkin) is wallowing in his cups in the Australian ...

Dead Man's Float (1980) more movies like this

directed by Peter Sharp

Since the film is aimed at the kiddie trade, the youngsters prevail over the villains, though it's nip and tuck for a while ...
