3.0 out of 5 stars Very funny in some parts.... Very tamed in others, May 28, 2004

This review is from: Spaceballs: The Book (Paperback)

As you shouldve guessed, the book is based on the great movie. The book started off funny as hell, kind of giving you an idea of what was happening that you didnt see int he movie, and is almost somthing you would have liked to see in the movie... but then there's other things that where funny in the movie... but seem very weird to read somthing different in the book... or when your memory serves well and you remember a scene in the movie.... and instead of reading that, you read how a 5 minute scene has been worded down to "they had a fight, then he won, he hit the self destruct butten, and got out of there" ...those arnt the exact words, but you get the point. Not to mention that some things in the movie arnt in the book, which just left me wondering "one of the funniest things about the movie, and they leave it out??"

It's not a very big book, it will only take you a short period of the day to read it! it's about 120 pages long, but its not even the size of a DVD case. It's ok reading for a fan of Spaceballs's like myself to read somthing based on a favorite movie. But dont pay alot for it.

May da shwartz be with ya

I absolutely LOVED the movie and the book was really good too! Good effort by R.L. Stine (who was quite a new author at the time).

I actually found this book just as good the movie, very humorous. Sure, it's not as profanity-laced as the movie because of the ages of people reading the book, but it still comes across as really good. Yogurt rules!
