It turns out that Shatner is, in fact, Kirk. On more than one occasion during this very silly movie, Shatner manages to come out on top of potentially disastrous paintball scenarios. I came away from this surprised at how wily Shatner really is. <br/><br/>The camera work is not amateur so much as it is unprofessional. It's much like watching a Shatner family home movie. I have never been involved in paintball, so it was fascinating to see how riled up these people get about their paintball.<br/><br/>However, this movie is certainly not for everyone. If you're not a big Shatner fan than you're better off watching Friends reruns.
As awful as this is as a piece of film-making, it is pure comedy gold. The entire production reeks of egotism and pomposity, and the whole thing is amplified by the fact that nobody involved seems to realize how outrageous the whole thing is. The whole thing is really a tribute to Shatner's massive ego- though, to be fair, he does seem to have a sense of humour about it. Even the title is a pompous and pointless misspelling (how is "Spplat" pronounced differently than "Splat"?).<br/><br/>I should add that the advertisements for "Creative Light Entertainment" that come before the movie starts are even funnier than "Spplat Attack" itself.
