Mystery Science Theater 3000 - Mitchell Reviews
Joel's last
I'm really more of a Mike fan, but this is a great episode. They identify Joe Don Baker perfectly as the lumpy, sweaty man that he is. I don't think he was required to eat a bucket of chicken before each take for the role of Mitchell, but I think he did anyway. Mitch stumbles through this plot in which he drinks over 80 beers and MEETS a prostitute...
If you haven't seen this show or this episode, I guarantee you that you will not be sorry for purchasing this. And this show ushers in the Mike era, so it's great.
And to give some reasoning for my choice of Mike Nelson over Joel Hodgeson: Mike delivers jokes better than dazed-looking Joel (c'mon, don't take offense), and he is also generally funnier.
Pretty Good
Having been a fan of Mystery Science Theater 3000 for years, I was eager to watch this episode featuring the film "Mitchell". "Mitchell" stars Joe Don Baker in the title role of a detective who is out to solve crimes whether his bosses like it or not.
I thought that the commentary from Joel and the robots was funny, but I thought the actual movie was kind of slow. After a while I started losing interest, which has never happened while watching MST3K. I would not say that this movie is bad, but I guess I'm so used to seeing really bad movies being made fun of on this series that this one didn't seem to live up to the standards I now have. "Mitchell" seems more like a legitimate movie instead of the horrible B-movies I'm used to.
I would tell any MST3K fan to watch this film and form your own opinions. I would also suggest adding this film to your collection, regardless of what you think about the movie. You can never have too many MST3K episodes!
