Review of Spaceballs

Spaceballs (1987)
8/10
My number 122 movie
13 February 2001
Spaceballs is my number 122 movie. It is very funny and has a lot of memorable characters. You will like this movie much more if you have seen the Star wars Episodes 4 - 6, but who has not?!? You could compare this movie to Scary Movie, but this one does not make fun of Scream and horror movies, but of Star Wars and sci-fi movies. I found I lot of the dialogue a bit to cheesy, but it is a comedy, it just wants to entertain. My favorite character definitely is Darth Vader character ( in German its name is Lord Helmchen, maybe it is the same in English ). He is very very very funny, and by this role Rick Moranis got one of my favorite comedy actors. I do consider Lord Helmchen as one of funniest characters of movie history, and I have seen about 700 movies. Maybe he is even the funniest, he just makes 5 jokes a second by his facial expressions and his gesture. That is just very very funny.

All in all, I rated this movie 8/10. It could have been better, since I did not like the characters that parody Han Solo ( played by Bill Pullman ), Princess Leia and Chewbacca. But the rest was actual funny, especially Rick Moranis. I recommend this movie to every comedy fan and to guys who have love star Wars, and do not say : „Oh, it is Star Wars, it is more than a movie, it is a religion, and you do not make fun of religions." And that´s that. If you have any questions, feel free to ask them. CU; Rinho.
