Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic
Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
Loui Blair It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
ga-bsi When I watched this short film I couldn't help laughing because it was such a seamless and brilliant rip off of Star Wars, which is definitely a Film that is not easy to make a spoof of. Steve Oedekerk really delivers in this because he takes a very serious story, as sci-fi films go; and turns it into something that will make you fall off your chair with laughter. Everything about his script is great, right from the moment where you first see a hand being used as the main spacecraft of the Thumbellion to the moment where all of the people are honoured for their part in the destruction of the death star; with even Oobedoob Scooby-Doo Benubi showing up in spirit with big grin and all. The names that are chosen for each character are great, my favourites are Princess Bunhead, Hand Duet, Cruchie and Oobedoob Benubi. If you haven't watched this film, give it a whirl; because you will not be disappointed. And even if you're a die hard fan of the Star Wars movies, you should definitely consider watching this film.
andrewlb_2000 Well after seeing this it is no Gone with the wind. I in fact hated it but some parts were funny, they really did not make very much sense but the sense they made was very funny I give it a 2 out of 10. the 2 is because it wasn't very funny and and the stuff they had was Sex jokes and I do not like sex jokes.
fthcolumn There were many times I saw this movie on DVD and almost bought it. But I'm sure glad I didn't! This is the worst satire ever. I couldn't even watch the whole thing. It's way too long and never funny. Princess Leia with Danish pastries on her head might've gotten a couple laughs in 1978, but by now it's a tired and worn out joke. And what's the point of having the characters as thumbs? It has nothing to do with the humor (or lack of). I love Star Wars and fan films, but this is just bad news!
Tintin a Tokyo Thumb Wars is a nice, odd little parody on the now culturally mythical original Star Wars. The short interview/making of sequence following the filmette added to the enjoyment when you saw the number of people and the amount of effort which went into filming some thumbs (and one foot).It's true that some of the jokes made are pretty much standard fare (Leah is Princess Bunhead - with cinnamon buns for hair, a Stormtrooper comments on Darth Vader's "cool" voice). However, the curious effect of faces superimposed on thumbs, some of the attention to detail and references to the original (the bar scene), and some of the just plain whacked out humour (the naked X-wing pilot) are what maintain the pace.2 minutes longer and I think I would have begun to lose interest, but for something different and a good laugh Thumb Wars does the job. The preview for Thumb Tanic looked good too.
