There are good satire comedies and then there are bad satire comedies. This is one of the bad ones. With little left to recognize from star wars in the film and probably the worst physical humor ever demonstrated on screen, this isn't sillyThere are good satire comedies and then there are bad satire comedies. This is one of the bad ones. With little left to recognize from star wars in the film and probably the worst physical humor ever demonstrated on screen, this isn't silly it's just stupid. I remember laughing when I was younger at this film, guess its only funny to five year olds because this was a complete waste of time!… Expand
