family guy: something something something dark side
6 April 2010
Warning: Spoilers
My first reaction to this film Family Guy: Something Something Something Dark Side is that, I thought this movie would be just like their T.V. show and will be funny as usual but I thought wrong. It seems that that they focused much on how would they tease the movie Star Wars and lost sight on making it ridiculously funny. Their randomness were the biggest impressions that they had on me and it is also the main thing that really jumps out from the film. It is like they are talking about something then one scene will come up related to the words that they used but not related to the story that they are talking about.

The movie was not that interesting but just really entertaining. It is just entertaining because the film is random. The major characters are Peter Griffin as Solo, Lois Griffin as Leia, Chris Griffin as Skywalker, Stewie Griffin as Vader, and Brian the dog which is also part in Griffin family as Chewbacca; so does Meg as the Giant Space Slug but in this movie she is not important at all. Well, in their T.V. shows either, she's not. The movie is just the parody of Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back. If you know the movie Star Wars Episode V, you will get the humor of it, if not then, sorry. This movie would not make you laugh at all.

The background were in space mostly, with big triangular ships firing lasers and Comets floating around. The two scenes that made me gag was when Vader cut Chris' right arm and fell from the hole for about 3 minutes of the film and asks the mechanic if he found his hand the mechanic said he did not but you can see Chris' hand on his crouch. A green joke, I know but it is a funny scene and when Solo punched Leia out of nowhere then swear.

All in all, this movie is not funny, rating it 1-5 I'll give it a 2, for just their effort of making this film. You can only laugh in this film from either violence or just swearing when the jokes are weirdly out of place. This is just not the family guy that I used to watch. It is terrible.
