About on par with the first ninja turtles movie. Not great, not terrible. Nothing to take serious.

I liked it as a kid. Haven't seen it in a decade or more so who knows how I'd feel about it watching it now.
Lea Thompson has always been hot. |

I always watched Howard the Duck to see the duck tits. Does that make me some kind of furry? I was just a little kid... |

It's a great movie if you don't take yourself seriously.

I had an edited fir TV version on a VHS tape that I used to watch as a kid.
I can remember the feeling of something just being off as I watched it, even as a little kid. I haven't seen it since I lost the tape but I bet the reasons for the movie seeming weird would come into perspective now. |

Frank Zappa had a song about why a movie like that was made: Cocaine Decisions.
I'm sure when everybody involved in the decision making process was coked out of their minds, the idea of making a live action movie out of a weird comic book seemed like a really good idea. Just look at the results. |

I was already an adult, or at least masquerading as one at age 29, when it came out. It was mildly amusing but overall not something I'd want to go back and watch again.

It was this bad: I met Tim Robbins after he made the movie. He said, "Nice to meet you. I'm sorry about Howard the Duck." I told him I never saw it, and he said to keep it that way.
I took his advice. |

Considering it was the first Marvel comic movie we are all lucky they decided to go past that mulligan
However marvel did put out some pretty shitty movies in the 80s-90s First Punisher , first Fantastic 4 and Nick Fury for example |
