un film parodie a prendre avec humour sans aucun sérieux. très amusant drôle
a ne pas écouter si vous ete trop sérieux ou incapable de faire abstraction de l absurde

although not a mel brooks masterpiece this film does not suffer solely from lack of comedic inspiration. in fact i find it to be one of his best. its main problem, in my opinion, was the shift in audiences. for the most part films such as Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein catered to an audience that was, by 1987, much older and focusing on family life. plus, brooks' comedic venom was now aimed at a less familiar target in Star Wars. intially, even i had a hard time time convincing myself it was worth seeing. but after repeated viewings i realized that it was as funny as many of brooks' best. now dont get me wrong, you wont laugh as often as you did for High Anxiety but you'll laugh none the less. sadly, the core players of previous films are missing here (Harvey Corman & Madeline Kahn) and it suffers becasue of it but the times were changing and so were the films. only later on did brooks really get into a stupor with Robin Hood: Men In Tights and Dracula: Dead and Lving It, starring the one dimensional Leslie Nielsen.

Spaceballs, a comic masterpiece directed by Mel Brooks, is one of the funniest movies that I have ever seen. I own the trilogy of Star Wars and I watched every movie in the trilogy before I viewed this movie. After I watched Spaceballs, I found myself in a state of pure laughter as I saw Mel Brooks and John Candy imitating the trilogy of Star Wars. Anyone that wants a good funny movie to view should buy Spaceballs today.

This movie was absolutely crazy and funny!! I couldn't help but laugh the whole way! My favorite moment was the spoofing scene of Alien. Sooo funny. Watch Spaceballs and get ready to laugh hard.

I'm not a really big fan of Star Wars but after I saw Spaceballs I felt like Star Wars must have not been very funny. Now I watch Spaceballs one to two times a day. If I ever win an Oscar I will thank Mel Brooks because his movies were so funny.

Mel Brooks, comic genius. Spaceballs is the best space movie ever made. Great spoof on Star Wars, and I must say that I'd rather watch this than Star Wars. If you're into stupid comedies, this is a must see. Rick Moranis is great as Lord Helmet, John Candy as Barf, and Mel himself as President of Spaceball city, and of course the all powerful Yogurt. May the schwartz be with you!

Next To History of the world, this is my favorite! The wacky adventures of a man and his dog in a flying winnebeigo who are asked by a king to find his run away daughter whos beeing chased after by the SpaceBalls!

This has some of the best laughs in a movie ive ever seen! and its a shame they cut out the "A**HOLE" scene when they show it on TV because that is the funniest scene in the movie!

Mel brooks out did himself with this movie, and combined parodies such as obvious ones for space like "Star Wars" "star Trek" & "2001 Space Odessey" but genisly also added in some parody moments from "Dune" "Wizard Of Oz" "planet of the apes" and so much more!

To me this is Mels best movie to date! It will always be my favorite and I hope it becomes one of yours too! May the Shwartz be with you!

I used to talk about this with my friends back in middle school, and now today in college I still enjoy it. If you like Mel brooks then you'll enjoy this movie. If you have yet to experience brooks then go out and rent his movies, they're hilarious. I would've given this movie 5 stars except that I despise the robot that is voiced by Joan rivers, it killed the movie. I know it was supposed to make fun of C-3P0 but it was stupid and I hate it. Outside of Dot Matrix, the movie is hilarious

This is a great movie! It is really cheesy and may seem rather lame to most, but it is still really funny. I thought Lord Helmut was hilarious and that guy that was making sound effects for everything was too. I must admit, it is lame, but it is much less lame than most other things in the 80's! Get it, it's funny (and inexpensive)! Do it!

This is one of the funniest spoof films ever! It's right up there with "Robin Hood: Men in Tights". Mel brooks knows what's funny and odd, and he also knows there is an audience for these lame humour movies. I never get tired of watching it!
