LaserDisc Movie Review:
We?re in outer space and there?s big trouble. Princess Vespa (Daphne Zuniga) needs help, as the evil Dark Helmet (Rick Moranis) is after her. Rogue space traveller Lone Starr (Bill Pullman) and his furry companion Barf (John Candy) are hired by Vespa?s father, King Roland (Dick Van Patten) to rescue Vespa and bring her home. Before that can happen, Vespa, Lone Starr and Barf, along with Vespa?s android Dot Matrix (voice by Joan Rivers) are set for interstellar adventure.
If all this sounds familiar, that shouldn?t be a surprise Princess Vespa and Princess Leia, Dark Helmet and Darth Vader, Barf and Chewbacca, Lone Starr and a cross between Luke Skywalker and Han Solo, Yogurt and Yoda the parallels are close and entirely intentional in Mel Brooks goofy takeoff on space movies. Brooks has referred to this film as Blazing Space,? referring to his earlier send-up of westerns, Blazing Saddles.
Of course, Brooks takes a few liberties with the outer space sci-fi genre. Barf is half man and half dog. He and Lone Starr pilot a space-equipped Winnebago motor home. Princess Vespa is constantly wearing things that give the appearance of Leia-like buns in her hair. While Brooks claims that he?s sending up the entire genre, this one is three parts Star Wars to one part Wizard of Oz and ten parts pure silliness. And it works hilariously well.
The plot comes fairly close to matching Star Wars, although not quite scene for scene. Brooks is constantly making light of the George Lucas film, while also taking light-hearted shots at other sci-fi movies, including Star Trek and Planet of the Apes, and some of his other favourite targets such as Jewish stereotypes.
If you don?t know Mel Brooks-style comedy, his own description is as accurate as any: My comedy is half wit, half physical, half disgusting, and sometimes half beautiful. Most of all, it?s silly and good natured. The jokes are frequent, and the visual humour such as Dark Helmet?s ridiculously huge headgear is constant. There?s no purpose to any of this except to make us laugh at how Brooks has taken the original and brought it into perspective.
Star Wars fans will love the constant in-jokes. Except for the frequent rough language, this would be an ideal movie for kids who love the 1977 classic. Brooks plays two roles Yogurt (played on his knees, with his face painted gold) and the nasty President Skroob, leader of the Spaceballs. He?s funny, as is Rick Moranis. Pullman, Zuniga and Candy are also pretty good, but the performances are not the key here. It?s the jokes, pratfalls and silly situations that make this one a winner or a loser.
Mel Brooks? comedies are an acquired taste that some people latch on to quickly and others never enjoy. If you can?t handle silliness, then you?ll have trouble with Spaceballs and his other movies. However, if you like the silliness, you?ll enjoy this one, especially if you?ve seen your share of outer space sci-fi films. --- Brian Webster
