the standard bearer of all movie serials and the definite good guy  flash gordon  versus bad guy  ming the merciless. though the special effects seem awful by today standards and for 1936 they were top notch. but the essence of the story is the battle between earthman flash gordon (buster crabbe) versus emporer ming of mongo (charles middleton). crabbe and middleton are terrific in their parts. and the supporting characters playing dale arden and dr. zarkov and princess aura and prince barin and vulcan and and the rest are all very good. this serial is far superior to the 1980 movie and basically because crabbe is much much superior to sam j. jones as flash gordon. this serial is the standard bearer for all movie serials. no question about it.
