A steady jet of fun

Rating: 8/10 (28 August 2019)

Now this was a lot of fun and better than I expected. The quickly forgettable plot (borrowed from the Lord of the Rings) involves a group of second-rate intergalactic heroes who band together, one of them having found a ball that confers great, almost impossible to control power and energy. Some thuggish types are out to get it for themselves, so let the fun begin. The movies provides a steady jet of lively images and more than the usual amount of humor. However, can we declare a moratorium on the use of big stars doing voice over for cute but obnoxious little creatures and giving them harsh New York accents?
