woody does sci-fi, what's not to love. this film is a futuristic, slapstick, zany comedy that falters slightly at the end but still holds together fairly well. 40 years later and this film still feels fresh, give or take a moment or two. i saw this movie the first time in my early teens and i've never forgotten it. sex jokes, dumb jokes, wisecracks, clever puns, self deprecating humor at it's best; this film has it all. it's also the last film (sort of) before woody become serious? more serious? serious-er? 84/100 read
