Police detective Boyle along with beautiful tomato scientist Kennedi Johnson are investigating suspicious deaths. Johnson believes it's killer tomatoes but Boyle dismisses her. Professor Gangreen (John Astin) is disguised as outrageous TV talk show host Jeronahew to brainwash the people and enslave the world with his killer tomatoes. Johnson is attacked by a tomato but Boyle refuses to believe.Boyle is a horribly stupid character and not in the funny way. He is annoying and the actor is not funny. He is so unfunny that he actually subtracts from the others. Johnson's fake screaming is an almost funny gag. John Astin could have worked in a better movie. I just can't stand Boyle. There is a small chance that some people will find this to be so bad that it becomes good. For me, I don't drink that much anymore.

More of the same, and why not? The first one was a pretty bad film, but you have to admit its concept was, uhm, daring and innovating. The second one was the same dumb fun, slightly better made, with even a couple of highlighting gags coming close to hilarious. This third film is as dumb as the second one, on a technical level pretty much on par with the second one, though less in hilarious outbursts. Either way, if you've had some laughs with the first two, I can't imagine you'll complain about this third entry. Silly, ridiculous, tacky, campy and... well, plain dumb actually. The people who made these films, own them. And they know it. I think the world hasn't seen the last of these Killer Tomatoes yet. For better or worse, that's for you to decide.Good Badness? Yes, if only for actually being funnier than "Munchies" (1987). 4/10 and 5/10

Well, it's a lot more entertaining that most of the previous installements. If you turn off your brain you might even get a giggle ouf of this movie.As others mentionned, it's a poor attempt at imitating the Leslie Nielson /Zucker brothers movie style.I think the funniest thing in this movie is seeing people wearing MC Hammer pants with a suit jacket... man thats scary!

As far as I can see, this third installment is basically more of the same. This time it is detective Lance Boyle teaming up with babe scientist Kennedi Johnson to fight the vile vegetables. It is also a sendup of tabloid television and trash talkshows. I guess you shouldn't expect much of credibility from a movie about killer tomatoes, but I guess this is as credible as the intended market, 10-14 year olds, need.The movie tries to play in the same league as Loaded Weapon or Naked Gun police spoofs, but just like the Police Academy sequels, it doesn't have the budget to go through with it. This kind of movies needs at least one joke a minute - as a minimum. The movie has a few good jokes but not nearly enough. Dr. Gangreen's hideout looks cheap, the water in the piranha tank is dyed black since there no piranhas and, most important, it is filled with second-rate actors. Neither Rick Rockwell or Crystal Carson had much experience before - or has had much since, at least as far as feature films are concerned. (Rick Rockwell is now, well, famous as the millionaire in 'Who wants to marry a millionaire?') And some scenes are superfluous, like Lance Boyle visiting the zoo or the irate guy at the bank.If you like horror movies and the Police Academy series, you will love this. Otherwise, spend some time benefiting humanity instead.
