The Ice Pirates (1984)

{[['']]}

A group of pirates led by captain Jason (well, he's not a mythological Jason?!) picks in the distant future the Universe in search of water for their civilization. Two of them were captured and brought into slavery space Princess who attracts both search for their father who disappeared at the very moment when he came into some dangerous secret.

However, this bonding experience "the pirate movie" with fantasy and simultaneously parodying both genres would be interesting, if the direction of Stuart Raffel didn't seem so "claustrophobic" (in the apt definition American critic Leonard Maltina), and he had a more subtle, not so vulgar sense of humor and knew how easy, it is natural to change the registers and the tone of the narrative, alternating between adventure and entertainment. And without all this turned out very strained, heavy and not funny. It's amazing how idiotic company "star pirates" got good actress Angelica Huston, which is excruciating along with other performers at least one audience laugh. But Mel Brooks after three years showed in a fantastic Comedy "Spaceballs" as I should be though rough, but very wittily parodied the movie series "Star wars."
