Outside the cities lies a radio-active wasteland, once called The United States of America’, where more violent conflicts are regularly being fought. The only people who are stopping the population ...
...years service… his name is Judge Dredd (Stallone) and he has his own quick style brand of justice. But as much as Dredd is feared by the criminals he is also loathed by his superiors, who think of him as a threat to the future of Law enforcement, especially Chief Judge Griffin (Prochnow), who, with the help of Dredds ‘clone’ brother Rico (Assante) decide to discredit Dredd. So with Dredd now being seen as a criminal he is sent to a prison outside ...

Disadvantages: Nothing New

Wing Commander = A decent Sci-Fi film this one. The human race has split into two distinctive sides. One left for the stars and are considered lesser beings, they are the ‘Pilgrims’. The other stayed home and advanced their technology on planet. They consider themselves more civilised and superior. Not so civilised though to avoid war with an alien race called the Kilrathi. The Kilrathi are determined to exterminate humans and an ...

The Force is weak in this one

Advantages: Characters, ships look good
Disadvantages: Only 3 original voice actors in it?

...this as either a new Star Wars movie or a Star Wars movie in its own right, what it is turns out to be nothing more than a pilot for the next animated Clone Wars series. The characters themselves are pretty well drawn on the whole and do accurately reflect their movie counterparts but you are left to wonder how much money George Lucas squandered in trying to get this into movie theatres merely to attract attention for a new tv series that most Star ...
...known and beloved to most Star Wars fans, instead it is replaced by a Flash Gordon style Narrator explaining what the current Star Wars universe situation is. Jabba The Hutts son is kidnapped by pirates so Mace Windu sends Anakin & Obi Wan to go and rescue him. If you aren't a huge fan you probably won't notice the tiny differences in the voice portrayals of roles like Anakin, Obi Wan, Yoda & Palpatine although the characterizations of them (as well ...
