Movie Reviews of Robot Chicken: Star Wars
Movie Review: A light hearted and rediculously fun romp...
Summary: 4 Stars
A VERY enjoyable collection of silly shorts by the maniacs of "Robot Chicken"... A nice addition to my "Star Wars" flicks...Movie Review: Were the comedy writers on strike?
Summary: 1 Stars
The Force is definitely not strong with this one. Instead of a Star Wars spoof, what we get here is a mishmash collection of animated skits that make the last 10 years of Saturday Night Live seem hysterical in comparison. If this DVD were a Star Wars character, it would be Yak Face.Movie Review: Star Wars + Robot Chicken = Hilarious fun
Summary: 5 Stars
Anyone who's watched Robot Chicken knows that creator Seth Green and his crew are big time Star Wars geeks, which makes this marriage of Star Wars and Robot Chicken all the more sensible. Robot Chicken: Star Wars is a half-hour special of shorts and skits that pay wonderful, hilarious homage to the phenomenon that is Star Wars, by poking fun at characters and memorable scenes from entire series. The visual gags and blink-and-you'll-miss-them moments are incredibly funny, and the voice talent assembled (including Green, Seth MacFarlane, Mark "Luke Skywalker" Hamil, Ahmed "Jar-Jar Binks" Best, Donald Faison, Hulk Hogan, Malcolm McDowell, Joey Fatone, Breckin Meyer, Conan O'Brien, James Van Der Beek, and even George Lucas himself in a hilarious bit) is great as well. There are some old bits from the previous two seasons of the series included here (such as President Dub-ya's lightsaber battle with Abe Lincoln) among the newly shot footage, with the only real downside of this special being that it ends. However, this DVD release is still worth picking up thanks to the assortment of extras included, which feature interviews, trailers, and discussions of how the whole thing came together. All in all, Robot Chicken: Star Wars is a sheer blast, and even if you're only a fan of one or the other, you'll surely enjoy this.Movie Review: Two hours of extra feature plus the great original show!
Summary: 5 Stars
I watched this DVD today and laughed as much or more as the first time I saw this show on Adult Swim. This DVD has a number of features to recommend it:
- Two hours of extra features, including deleted scenes, commentary, animation meeting, panel presentations, alternate audio and more.
- Terrific presentation of the original show. It even sounds as though the music to dialogue level has been adjusted on the "Empire On Ice" sketch so that the hilarious lyrics to the songs are much more audible and clear than they were when originally shown on TV.
At less than $10, this DVD is absolutely worth it. A great entertainment value for the price. Even the blurbs on the back of the DVD case are entertaining.
