hey this movie turned out to be better than a lot of people would lead you to believeve. I bought it out of a bargain bin out of pure chance and then looked up some reviews on it and got myself a little worried. luckily it surpassed its repuation. dont get me wrong im definatly not calling this movie amazing but it was slighly above average. it had a lot of space frieks and crazy creatures, which is one thing i look for in sci fi's and the storyline wasnt terrible either. it was definatly the characters that kept it going for me though, each alien they encountered was origonal looking and very imaginative, ill be looking for movies like this and if your looking for a fun sci fi adventure then definatly give this one a try.

This is one of my all time favorite b movies. The fx aren't well done but the story is great. There needs to be more cheesey sci fi movies like this, and space raiders. I would really be heart broken if this title never arrives on DVD because I would love to add it to my collection.

I'll buy it when it finally becomes available on DVD.

Some-where between star wars and star trek, there lies a distant galaxy where great films reside. Films such as Galaxy Quest, The Last Star Fighter and Ice Pirates. This is a film not to be missed as sci fi comedy is all to hard find. This is a very serious comedy with serious aliens and some very serious battles,that will make you laugh. I have been looking for it on DVD,not vhs.

Ice Pirates is basically space humor with a really good plot and not bad at all acting. The budget must have been a bit small but a good job was done on the end product over all. There is no doubt this is a classic that definately keeps you entertained. Probably why they play it on TV so much!

I would really love to see this movie formated into DVD but, I was informed that this movie was no longer made that did break my heart but, I've been looking for it on DVD not VHS.

yeah, its cheesy its silly, but what it does it does well, at times raising the simple fart joke to level of high comedy.

What a wonderful piece of sci-fi fun! I always loved this picture since the first time I saw it WAAAYYY back in '84. I have to admit, it's not for everybody. You really have to be in a class of science fiction fans who also enjoy movies like Sleeper or tv shows like Red Dwarf. My only regret about Ice Pirates was that the director didn't have a larger budget--then again... Urich, Roberts and Huston (The Space Samurai Chick!) really steal the show--check out the gut-funny scene when Ulrich and Roberts were about to lose their "manhood". Hilarious!! The story is ludicrous in itself, water has become more valuable than gold or silver. I always found it funny that these people have the ability of interstellar travel but they can't produce water. I give the movie four stars--even though it loooks really bad on tv--in anyevent, Ice Pirates makes me wish filmmakers would produce more sci-fi satires. Long Live Jason and his Ice Pirates!

This movie is not suppose to make you feel that you have to analize it it is purely first class farce of SI_FI. I really liked this movie and keep checking when it will be in dvd format ther are a lot of really bad movies in dvd this one is well worth doing if you like to just be entertained and have a good laugh this is a great movie
