Howard the Duck

"You get the vivid sensation that you're watching not a movie, but a pile of money being poured down the drain."

"Howard the Duck isn't a duck. It's a turkey, and not a golden turkey either."

"Is audience abuse a federal crime? If not, why not?"

"With live actors and a star duck that is not terribly convincing, the film just doesn't make it."

"There must have been a terrible moment, many millions of collars into the production of Howard, when everyone realised it was not going to work either as comedy or thriller, as kid's stuff or sophisticated fore."

"This creature with a mobile bill, scrawny body, and with a voice like Humphrey Bogart proves irritating beyond belief."

"There are a few good jokes along the way, but the final effect is that we've been here rather too many times before."
