Okay, it really isn't. A twist on Star Wars with 1993 CGI, it follows a young hero and his robot starting from his infancy to adulthood.
The hero, who was raised by Ewoks and someone doing their best Liam Neeson, is dispassionate and unheroic until he hears of his mother's sacrifice; apparently, early in life she sent him away to rescue him from the cruel machinations of her husband's other wife. It was heartbreaking, and now the evil Ricardo Montablan wannabe wants to blow up their planet with his Death Skull, which looks even more goofy than it sounds.
The hero's half brother, a demon who is foretold to be kind of a jerk, gets locked up but is freed to fight the hero. It's a showdown of epic proportions, that is about as dramatic and terrifying as anything you could see made by fourteen-year-olds on YouTube.
Most of the outfits are designed for the maximum amounts of goofiness available, and the acting is soap opera material on every level.
It's either the greatest tribute to Star Wars or what the prequels were meant to be, but that still doesn't mean it's watchable. For people who are fans of cheese, this might be worth the investment in a rental.
