Watch Star Warp'd For Free

Thanks for the memories!

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

The acting in this movie is really good.

It lacks the sophistication of Robot Chicken to be sure, but if you want to see your kids roll on the floor, then this is a good one to check out!

Mostly, it just needed to be shorter, might have had potential then. Bad claymation and 90's computer graphics aside, it lacks the self-awareness necessary to pull it off. Even the potty humor falls flat and this film was full of it. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy that as much as anyone, but seeing the same character doing the same thing two minutes earlier is boring. This could have easily been done 'Robot-Chicken' style and cut to fifteen minutes but instead resorts to fights that are nothing more than two badly animated characters beating each other in the head twice and then cutting back to something else, then coming back to the 'fight' scene, where you see them do it AGAIN!

Prior to renting this DVD, I had never heard of this short movie and from the cover didn't expect much from it. There was one comment on the back which said it was hilarious or something similar, but said comment was probably written by a critic eager to get his/her name published on the back of a DVD case.Upon watching, I was assaulted by lame and cliché 'jokes', half of them ripped off from Mad Magazine. The starting scenes seem like a poor imitation of the vastly superior 'Spaceballs', and sound like something my seven year old cousin jokes about. I must say however, that it gets marginally better as the thing goes along, with slightly more original humour used, but really, it only got a few minor chuckles from me. It says something about the movie when half of the laughs come from the look of the claymation models, and variations on the various theme songs of the movies the characters are a part of.Voice acting was another let down, being rather flat and uninspired. According to the small 'behind the scenes' featurette, they had many auditions and only chose the best. I had a hard time believing this, as despite it being a parody the voice acting for the most part sounds like they picked up any random person off the street to do it.What makes this movie barely acceptable, however, is it's combination of CGI and claymation. While I have seen better, the animation is rather smooth and certain scenes were generated pretty well. The characters look rather humorous which helps put some life into the fairly lame jokes. However, I feel explosions and such could've been done a lot better, as they look like they came out of the original Doom video game at times.To conclude, I suppose this is worth checking out if one has nothing to do. It is only half an hour or so which is a definite plus, as otherwise it would simply drag on for too long. Don't go in expecting much, but if you're bored like I was this will give you something to do. Acceptable, but only barely so.

Look at the DVD package and you'll know to expect references to Star Wars, Star Trek, Terminator, ET and RoboCop. But they don't mention quick cameos from X-Files, Predator, Alien, 2001: A Space Odyssey and a set homage to Back To The Future.Done on a shoestring budget in someone's garage studio, this short movie could almost be considered a fan film. Being a sci-fi fan I love the mish-mash of all the references, especially the theme music which is a great conjoining of the Star Wars and Star Trek titles that actually works.Worth a view for the poke they take at all these different sci-fi greats, Star Warp'd truly is warped and should please those who are fans of the parody film.
