Movie Review by Jessica Film Junkie
April 2nd, 2007

Awesome

One of the greatest parodies of all time is this take on the Star Wars trilogy by that master of farce, Mr. Mel Brooks.

He takes pieces of 'Star Trek', 'The Wizard of Oz', 'Alien' and many other movies and mixes them in with a hilarious take on the culture of 'Star Wars'. From the mass marketing campaigns to the self-referential moments of mockery. Brooks gets it right every time.

Bill Pullman and Daphne Zuniga star as the two lovers in peril, with John Candy and Joan Rivers as their sidekicks. Brooks plays a few characters alongside Rick Moranis as Darth Helmet. These actors are all at their funniest in this great comedy.

I loved this movie when I saw it as a kid, and I love it even more now. It is one of the few 80's comedies that really stands up over time.

Not to be missed!
