Perhaps the most perfect Sci-Fi movie ever made. Big, brassy, and bold, it shows utter dedication to the genre, lacking any moment that rings false. Its philosophies range from survival of the species to the necessities of fate to the rationale for galactic revolution, and the theory of asymmetrical warfare.

Perhaps not the best Philosophy, and certain possessing its share of weak and or b-movie moments, this movie's rather spectacular climax is a tribute to that old Beatles' message: "All you need is Love"
