Nazis fled to the moon after WWII and now they're heading back. This time they have a black astronaut in tow that they've turned white.
We need to create a new genre for movies like this one. Iron Sky and Sharknado are the best examples of this type of movie. They're not full parodies, they're comedies, but they want you to think everyone/everything in the film is dead serious... Dramedy doesn't work. I don't know.
There are some funny bits, but overall it's just silly. Maybe it's absolute comedy if you're high? There are lots of subtle things like the black astronaut's suit being darker than the white guy's. That's just the first one I remember. LOTS of nods to other pop culture things and movies, again like in Sharknado.
If you get something out of Sharknado, this is for you.
