Le big-Bang

Plot synopsis:
Detectives Poley (William Fichtner), Frizer (Thomas Kretschmann), and Skeres (Delroy Lindo) are interrogating Ned Cruz (Antonio Banderas), a Los Angeles private investigator, who tells them that five years earlier, Russian mobster Skinny Faddeev gave $30 million in blood diamonds as an advance to Anton (Robert Maillet), a boxer, to intentionally lose a fight against his nephew. However, during the fight, Anton unintentionally killed the nephew. When Skinny was found dead, Anton was sentenced to life in prison. While Anton was in prison, he received over 200 letters from a woman named Lexie Persimmon.
Anton gives Ned the job of finding Lexie. Ned is skeptical about his job, since he doesn't have a photo of Lexie. As he starts investigating the various clues, people start dying mysteriously. Ned also notices that a black Lincoln is following him, which he assumes is the Russian Mafia. He finds a clue that leads him to believe that Lexie might be in San Celeritas, New Mexico.
Ned then meets a waitress named Fay Neman (Autumn Reeser)—a particle physics buff—who helps him. Ned meets Simon (Sam Elliott), his wife Julie (Sienna Guillory), and Niels Geck (Jimmi Simpson), a physicist who is conducting an experiment for Simon. Simon is interested only in finding the "God particle" and feels indifferent when Julie tries to warm up to Ned. Ned suspects that Julie might really be Lexie and decides to tell her what is happening. Meanwhile, Anton tracks down Ned to Simon's bungalow. Ned confronts Julie with his suspicions about Lexie's true identity, but Julie has no idea what he is talking about. Ned and Julie hear gunshots, causing Ned to suspect that Anton is at the house.
Realizing that he and Anton have both mistaken Julie for Lexie, Ned tries to save her. When the duo head toward the basement, Ned is astonished to find Niels dressed like a woman, and in a blonde wig. A box containing cosmetics has the phrase "Lex Parsimoniae"—a Latin phrase meaning "When all things are equal, the simplest solution is the best"—printed on it. Ned realizes that Niels had written the letters to Anton, who becomes angered when Niels tries to convince Anton to accept him. In a shootout, Ned is injured and passes out.
The story cuts back to the present day, where it is revealed that Niels and Anton killed each other while the detectives, who had followed Ned to Simon's house, held Ned and Julie hostage. Ned accuses the trio of following him and killing the people he met, also stating that Skinny was killed for diamonds, which his killer never recovered. Ned proves that Frizer killed all the people who could have known about the diamonds. Frizer admits his crimes, for which the other detectives scold him. Ned looks at a glass tank containing a gecko and realizes something; he tells the villains that he knows where Niels stored the diamonds.
The detectives take Ned and Julie to the spot where he had confronted Julie after she had shown him a hidden shoe box. While Julie and Ned are in the car, Skeres and Frizer go to get the shoe box. Meanwhile, Poley spots Julie and Ned signaling each other. He attacks them, but they overpower him and manage to drive the car towards Skeres and Frizer. Skeres and Frizer are disappointed when they discover the diamonds are not in the box. When they see the car coming towards them, they realize what is happening and start shooting. Ned shoots them both dead. Meanwhile, Simon the physicist's experiment destroys his lab and creates a giant crevasse. Ned and Julie speed away in the car, and later pick up Fay.

Review:
Praise for truly bizarre x-rated animation. 'The Big Bang' is from the people who brought you 'Jungle Burger'. It's certainly not for the prudish, but it's not pornography. I haven't seen it in many years, but I remember it as very funny and extremely strange. It is a post-Apocalypse story with mutant, multliple-breasted women firing bullets from their nipples. Ballerinas leap gracefully through the air, and the edges of their skirts cut heads off. This is set brilliantly to classical music. I also seem to remember the men retaliating with penis-shaped rockets.It sounds crude and nasty, but it isn't. The sexual imagery isn't meant to titillate or even be funny in the same way as 'Flesh Gordon'. The images are surreal, menacing; this is about nuclear war and mutants, not orgies. It's the dead opposite of 'Yellow Submarine' in tone and accessibility, but alike in its fantastic visual playfulness. 'The Big Bang' certainly isn't for everyone, but it is good.. Hilarious, imaginative and completely obscene!. This was one of the funniest movies I've seen in a while. Never before have I seen a movie so tasteless, vulgar and hilarious at once.Things I liked: -Witty, yet vulgar humour. It had every kind of thing that might offend or disgust people (sex, violence, bodily functions, swearing, sexism) and yet it managed to be completely hilarious. All the jokes worked, and they came at you non-stop.-Great animation. It was very fluid, and the character designs were all beautifully ugly.-It was creative. This movie contained some of the most messed up imagery and gags ever brought on screen. Only the greatest imaginations can constantly make you think to yourself "what the f*** am I watching" so many times in one movie.-You just have to admire the courage the writers had to put some of this stuff in a movie. Like I said before, this is a completely offencive movie. But they still manage to make this entertaining and hilarious.Things I disliked -It's not really something I personally disliked, but I'd just like to warn people to not watch this if you're easily offended.But for those who aren't easily offended, and want to watch a funny, creative and entertaining movie, this is for you.. What the flying !@$#%&*?. I can't believe what I saw. This movie can make anything created by Seth McFarlene and Matt Groening look like harmless fun. It starts out as the planet Earth is going through it's own problems (i.e. nations are blowing up other nations until their are two nations). The nations have become two nations: U.S.S.S.R., a nation of men and Vaginia, a nation of women. Worst part is, that they are warring amongst themselves and it is up to a down and out superhero named Fred (voice by David L. Lander who was Squiggy on TV's HAPPY DAYS) to bring peace to the planets or else the universe will be destroyed. Everything looks like something off from FLESH GORDON-type movie. The weapons and characters, even the battle (of the sexes) that is going on here. Apart from the pop culture like STAR WARS, CONAN, SUPERMAN and ET, there are loads, loads and loads of sexual reference and innuendo. Worst part is, it is full of stereotypes. Remember the old American cartoons from the 30's and 40's, where the portrayal of black and Japanese people was racist? It is still in this animated film, along with some sac-religious scene. Picha was doing a ton of research to make this animated film.Bottom line: This movie, like Juan Piquer Simon's adaptation of THE FABULOUS JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF THE EARTH (1976) and Woody Woodpecker, is not for everybody (like the politically correct and squeamish). With all the language, violence, gore, profanity and sexuality, it could make the Fleischer Brothers, Disney, Tex Avery, Walter Lantz, Bill Nolan, Ub Iwerks, Paul Terry and Chuck Jones all spin in their graves.Not rated, but an NC-17 would be appropriate. NC-17 for the stuff I mentioned early in this review.I guess this movie inspired Bob Boyle to come up with the YIN YANG YO (read my review) episode, "The High Sheas".. 30 Years later.. I had some vague memory of this movie. I must have been 7 or 8 and it was on TV. I could caught the beginning with the Space Waste Truck, Darth Vader and the USSSR President with his butt obsession. Getting to see this movie in it's full have taken me 30 years. Ultimately ending up watching it in terrible quality on YouTube. It hasn't aged that well. But I tried viewing it like it was the 1980's. This was made before the Simpsons, before most anything that we see today was out, and I try to keep this in memory. It's absurd beyond belief, but not necessarily in a bad way. It mocks both the Reagan era Star Wars program as well has the Soviets. And even though at the time the feminist Nazis who hates men was clearly a joke when Picha made the movie, it bares a striking resemblance towards today's society where these people actually exist. Females and so called "non-binary" persons with insane views on how people should live exist in today's society whereas they were considered insane and laughable in the 80's. Even though this movie doesn't hold a specific value anymore, times have changed to much, it's still fun to watch.
