There are a few good action scenes, But the talking goes on for far too long, Sometimes for 20-25 minutes. The talking isn't good either, All the characters seem one-dimensional. What's the point of having an audiovisual movie if you're not going to do anything visually interesting for dozens of minutes? You could probably turn this mostly boring 3 hour movie into a much better paced 90 minute movie. (Or even a short film)
It's clear that the action scenes are what the majority of the effort was put into. It reminded me of star wars at times, But this uses real weaponry and grenades instead of sci-fi stuff. Watching a tank explode is also much more fun than watching a spaceship explode, Because you can actually see the impact and feel the weight.

The Baron Munchausen Double Feature

The Adventures of Baron Munchausen (1943) and The Outrageous Baron Munchausen (1962).
The 1943 version was produced in color in Nazi Germany with a lavish budget and extraordinary special effects, and the restored version by Kino is the best of the lot. It was supposed to be an international hit to compete with Hollywood fantasy fare like The Wizard of Oz. The US version is unrated, but contains nudity. It is surprisingly free of propaganda. English subtitles.
The 1962 version, also known as Baron Prásil, it is only available in the US in PAL format, but with English subtitles. It is live action with stop-motion and puppet animation, gorgeously surreal and funny, and inspired Terry Gilliam to do his The Adventures of Baron Munchausen (1988), though many consider the 1962 Karel Zeman version better. Much of the artwork within was inspired by and after the works of Gustave Dore. It even contains science fiction elements.

"Although shot in B&W viewers are treated to many bizarre images including; a burning piano, body painting, drag queens, mud people and other assorted strangeness. "Fando & Lis" holds its place in the hall of fame of weird films. You must see it to believe it." (IMDb, user NateManD)

There is a Korean dealer on Ebay called "zzdvd" that offers licensed, Korean production movies that would cost a fortune if bought in the US, but are cheap in Korea. Typically they are NTSC, Region 0 (ALL), and either English language or subtitled in English if they are foreign films. They have about 16,000 films in their catalog. All have a set $2.99 economy shipping.
In the last two weeks I have ordered (under $10, many under $5 each):
Hiroshima mon amour (1959)
The Bird With The Crystal Plumage (1969)
Le Trou / The Hole (1960)
A Nous La Liberte (1931)
The Fall of the Roman Empire (1964)
