User Reviews

TV show, not a movie

4 episodes of a TV show put together to form a movie much like forming Voltron, but this isn't nearly as good as that show. From what I've read the show got better, but that still doesn't change the fact that this was tough watch and I would not recommend unless it's the rifftrax version or you and your buddies want to hang out and riff on it yourselves.
