I just watched "Benders Game", and for the first time in 3 tries the movie version managed to give me that cozy feeling the series used too. I grew accustomed to the predecessors and like them more the more I view them, but this one had me from the start. The story flows without a downer. The jokes are once again intelligent and often subtle enough to make you pause and think for a moment.

Maybe its the more linear and less "crazy" storyline that does the trick, maybe the deeper character development than in earlier installments, "Benders Game" should definitely satisfy fans and newcomers alike.
