Its a better film than the first and it does have some stunning visuals and looks amazing but once again we find ourselves not caring about these characters and just waiting for the robot to finally do something. But if you like a good specticle, then this is your franchize.

1980's Battle Beyond the Stars
A farm boy recruits a band of outlaws to save the planet Akir from forces that threaten to wipe them out from the face of the universe. A battle stretching beyond the stars begins here.
This low budget sci fi version of Seven Samurai is, well, a low budget version of that classic movie. It has a wide range of characters and locations. The ships look terrible and the acting is hilarous. The film score is amazing and led James Horner to land the Wrath of Khan film, so we can be thankful for that.

To keep her ailing father from serving in the Imperial Army, a fearless young woman disguises herself as a man and battles northern invaders in China.
This live action remake of the 1998 anumanted film, is not the same type of remake like the others. This movie takes more risks and doesn't do a shot for shot remake. Does the movie suffer for it?
