THIS IS A GREAT COMEDY,I HAVE IT ON DVD,BUT WHEN IT CAME OUT ON BLU RAY I REALLY HAD TO HAVE IT!!!
Rating:  -
One of my all time favorite movies and of course a classic Mel Brooks film. I own this on DVD, but definitely wanted it on Blu-Ray as well. For a movie of its age, it looks great on Blu-Ray. I had fun watching it all over again in high-def! The sound is truly better. That's probably the biggest improvement. It does have extra features too, which is always nice, although my main concern is the film itself.
Overall a great buy for any Mel Brooks fan!

I love a good majority of Mel Brooks movies, but what brings this movie down is the fact that John Candy stars in it. I don't know what there is about him, but I find him to be very annoying, and about as funny as a rubber crutch! I don't have a movie in my collection with John Candy in it. I think he was a very over rated comedian/actor. Rick Moranis shines through on this one. Supporting cast is up there as well. Bill Pullman proves to me that he can do different roles, playing a somewhat comedian role on Spaceballs. Somewhat humorous role in Lake Placid, and a serious role as president in Independence Day.
This is a great spoof off Star Wars. Mel Brooks has put out some real good movies in the past, and he always seems to get the right people to play the right parts. I remember seeing 2 of his great movies when I was in the service - Young Frankenstien, and Blazing Saddles. Blazing Saddles has been butchered when it was shown on network television with all the editing, so owning a copy of this classic is on my to do list. Spaceballs seems to be ok on network television, because it doesn't have the racial overtone that Blazing Saddles does. I recommend most of Mel Brooks movies. Even though I don't care for John Candy, I think Mel Brooks did well by putting him in this movie.

In a Galaxy not so far away, a ruthless race of beings called Spaceballs lead by the dreaded runt Dark Helmet (Rick Moranis) and moronic president Scroobe (Mel Brooks) have came up with a diabolical plan to take all the air away from their neighboring planet Druidia. A runaway princess named Vespa (Daphne Zungia) with sassy robot maid Dot Matrix (Voice by Joan Rivers) is rescued by a stubborn but lovable space trucker named Lonestarr (Bill Pullman) with half-man half-dog alien companion Barf (John Candy) as they all join forces to learn the ways of the magical and mysterious Schwartz power from master Yogurt (Mel Brooks) and stop Dark Helmet's plans.
Excellent Sci-fi satire from co-writer, producer and director including actor Mel Brooks is one of the coolest and best comedies i've ever seen. I love how he makes fun of the Sci-fi genre with movies like "Star Wars", "Alien", "Planet of the Apes", "Star Trek", and other sci-fi movies of the time. The film co-stars Dick Van Patten as King Roland, George Wyner as Colnel Sanders, Michael Winslow and the voice of Dom Deluise as Pizza The Hutt even with a cameo by John Hurt. It's a great 80's cult favorite that provides the best laughs of the decade thanks to the magic of Mel Brooks and is always pure comedy gold.
This 2-Disc Blu-Ray offers the movie in beautiful high definition that it's not even funny even with quality sound that would make you go into luduicrous speed including a standard definition DVD of the movie. The extras including BD-exclusive which is "Watch the Movie in Luduicrous Speed", Trailers, Audio Commentaries, Film Flubs, Storyboard comparisons, interviews, Spaceballs: The Documentary, a memorial featurette on John Candy, behind-the-scenes footage and of course still galleries.

Spaceballs is one of my all time favorite films and I eagerly awaited it's bluray release and even put in my preorder months in advance. Now that the bluray is here it is still one of my all time favorite films but i must admit the transfer is not demo material.
The transfer itself is solid and without any unnecessary tampering (digital noise reduction, edge enhancement, etc) and it is the best this film will probably ever look on home video however the film itself will never wow anyone with detail.
On the audio side we get a 5.1ch track that does it's job as well as the source material allows... just like the video it's not demo material but it's still a solid track. Also included is the original dolby stereo track along with a rather large collection of languages (and subtitles as well)
The bonus features are the same as the previous DVD edition, I haven't really dug into all of them but in Fox bluray tradition features that need a play all option (in this case the film flubs) don't get that much needed option.
The included DVD is the older flipper disc with the 4:3 pan&scan on one side and the non-anamorphic 1.85:1 version on the other.
