Editorial Reviews

The story that began in Bender's Big Score concludes as a massive rift in space and time unleashes a cosmic terror of epic proportions and the citizens of planet Earth discover a strange new religion. A revolting, planet-sized alien has taken control of Fry, transforming our time-sleeping hero into the Pope of a new religion that encourages mankind to abandon planet Earth. With no more humans to get in the way, robots the robots will finally be free to take over. Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

A Well Needed Futurama Fixby Bob_G_Trapp

April 27, 2009: This is typical Futurama fare. It's the same main characters and the same universe but facing a different moral issue. The issue this time is sex.

The issue with sex for Futurama is that the writers have limitations based on their humor and the fact that they like to keep the show clean. (Not to mention that most of the writers have math degrees.) This comes out in that the usual tendency to let the humor follow to the logical conclusion gets reigned in a bit. They just can't go there and keep their dignity.

Despite this, the flick is Futurama and provides what we all want from the show. I recommend that you get this film and enjoy it for what it is: a cartoon made the way that math geeks make cartoons.

I Also Recommend: Futurama - Bender's Game.

Another great one from the Futurama crew.by Anonymous

June 23, 2008: If you're a fan of Futurama and you liked the last direct to DVD release, you're going to like this latest movie. "Beast With a Billion Backs" is a totally different...well...beast from "Bender's Big Score," despite being directly in continuity. Gone are the musical numbers and the overt references to earlier episodes. However, in their place, we have an even odder brand of humor that suits the series well. It could alienate new viewers, but honestly, these DVDs aren't for new viewers. If "Bender's Game" and "Into the Wild Green Yonder" follow in the footsteps of the previous DVDs, we're in for a treat. Hopefully the real 30th century will be this much fun.
