Review of Battle Beyond the Stars (1980) by Phillip M — 30 Oct 2012
Always good to watch an old campy sci-fi movie once in a while. This was an overall good watch, decent acting, good take on the plot of Seven Samurai and Magnificent Seven, and good cheesy special effects for it's time, but it doesn't come close to how Star Wars blew away audiences across the globe.
Still, it's nice to know how much of an impact Star Wars has had on our culture, and this film is one indication. While it looks and feels like Star Wars, it's story is definitely not the same.
Recommended if you like cult sci-fi, and campy effects.
