Age: 40 years
GRS Rating: 3 of 5
Notable Cast:
 
None.
Duration: 1 hr, 34 min
Infractions: "space herpe"

Comments: In the distant future, after a galactic war, the water supply is controlled by the Knights Templar. (Yes, they've survived.) Pirates prey on the ice ships to stay alive. Their meager life is going well until one particular crew is caught after raiding an ice ship and taking the princess on board. Will she become a liability or an ally?

This film is a riot. The effects aren't great and the storyline is predictable. That makes this flick good entertainment. In fact , it reminds me of CutThroat Island. I realize that the space-herpe joke is a good one. I just wish the actual thing wasn't so disgustingly '80s! The feel of this film is similar to Return of the Jedi, which makes sense because they are contemporaries. Mary Crosby of Dallas fame looks great, too. Highly recommended for laughing!
