This is the campiest movie you will ever see. It is so bad that it is hysterical. Teri Hatcher tries to play it straight and Andrew Dice Clay is just Andrew Dice Clay. See it. The laughs will make you glad you did.

Andrew Dice Clay is awesome in this film, and Teri Hatcher is as fine as usual. This film has it all the comedy is non stop as well as the action, I didn't know what to expect but I was very pleased. All and all it's a really good movie, very much worth seeing, I rate it 8 out of 10.

Andrew Dice Clay spewing forth insults, not on stage, but in a totally bananas film about Ninjas seeking to recover a Lotus flower with supernatural powers. The fast pace and a superior soundtrack help immensely. Clay's sharp dialog, laced with dark humor, is great. His character is the expected pompous self, while Terri Hatcher provides an excellent foil to Clay's wisecracking. Brion James is mostly wasted in a small role as a detective, and the generic ninjas have zero depth to their characters. In my opinion, the scene with the Dice Man's parents, is worth the price of admission. Colorful night time Portland photography is another plus. - MERK

Sam (Terri Hatcher) is a famous female model whose life is turned upside down after her sister discovers a rare flower and is hunted by a group of dangerous monks. Sam soon finds herself in the same amount of danger as her sister and she too goes on the run. Scared for her life, she bumps into a bouncer working out the of front of a nightclub named Ed, also known as "Brain Smasher" (Andrew Dice Clay). The two team up to try and survive the night, save the flower, save Sam's sister and smash some Ninjas... I mean Monks.
The dialogue between Andrew Dice Clay and Terri Hatcher is extremely cheesy. As far as comedy factor, any laughter that came out of my mouth was purely from the cringe worthy script which is delivered from a so called tough bouncer and a stunning model who seems to be forgetful all the time.
Throughout film, our leads are being hunted by Monks who continually get mistaken as ninjas (seriously, that's an repeated joke here). In many of the fists fights it is clear the actors are not actually connecting and during one scene you can actually see the wires that the actors used to make it look like they are flying and flipping from building to building. The action is overall dull. Needless to say, for the early 90s this film may have been cutting edge but sadly it doesn't hold up in present day. To put it politely, Brain Smasher is... A Love Story that perhaps falls into the category of "it's so bad, it's good" for some viewers.
As far as the music is concerned it lacks any fun or memorable music tracks. Considering the film has a plot that is wild and crazy, I was surprised to hear a very flat and dull soundtrack for the whole duration of the film. The soundtrack is simply repetitive and forgettable.
Overall, if you love a retro grindhouse style flick, then look no further! With cheesy dialogue, poorly done wire kung fu stunts and dull action this easily falls into the category of 'it's so bad, it's good'. Some viewers are bound to chuckle no matter what they see. Needless to say this is a film that doesn't hold up from the 90s. If you're an Andrew Dice Clay fan, Rock N' Reel Movie Reviews recommends you stick with "The Adventures of Ford Fairlane" (1990), because when it comes to comedy that film is truly "Unbelievable".
1.9/10

This film is excellent, a must-see for fans of action/comedies. Dice-Clay and Hatcher are both terrific in the lead roles, while the woman who played Seinfeld's mother in the tv series is also very good. The film also has quite good special effects and is a lot of fun!

What possessed a good actress like Deborah Van Valkenburgh to accept a role in dross like this ? She must have been hard up for cash to star in such a Z grade flick. Ms Van Valkenburgh is a great Film, TV and Theatre star and deserves much better. Check her out in The Warriors, A Bunny's Tale, Changing Destiny and especially Rampage. A disapointment.

A straight to video surprise, Brain Smasher is everything a good low budget b-movie should be. Andrew Dice Clay and Teri Hatcher star in this weird, yet funny and enjoyable action packed love story that makes you shake your head and smile. Not your typical love story, Brain Smasher is a simple story of boy meets girl, boy saves girl, and boy wins girl in the end. Andrew Dice Clay plays, more or less, himself in this movie. Although he is not the typical Dice that we have seen on stage, he gives a good performance to prove once again to the critics that he is an actor and not just a comedian. Hatcher adds her sexy charm and wit to the movie as the story's damsel. Together, they are an interesting match. For fans of both actors, Brain Smasher is one of those movies you rent when all else fails.
