a very silly and enjoyable space comedy. bombed at the box office,
but while no classic, didn't deserve that fate. lots of great
special effects, action and some funny lines (and some painfully non-
funny humor).
in the future water is the most precious commodity ever. the planet
Mithra, run by evil Templars controls most of the water. rebels
stealing ice to make a living are known as "Ice Pirates". there is a
legend of "The 7th Planet" which is covered in water, but no one
believes it. the Princess' father went searching for it, but has not
returned. she enlists the aid of Jason and Roscoe to help her find
it.
despite there not being much water in the galaxy, the people are very
clean. i saw this in 1984, and thought it was really funny. 22
years later it's not quite as funny, but still enjoyable.
the "SURPRISE" ending is very predictable.
