this film has to be the greatest film ever made!! i loved it as a child!! and am dying to get a hold of a copy to watch it again!! i used to own it on VHS... but unfortunately lost it about 2 years ago in a house move!! i was seriously unimpressed!!! if anyone has owned it they will know that the video case had a button on it and it lit up his bullets from his big ass gun!! and up until i lost it the lights and button still worked!! original batteries... which i was extremely proud of.... anyway... BRAVESTARR RULES!!! and if anyone owns a copy that they are willing to sell... let me know.. oh and i CAN NOT believe they did not make a DVD version of this film!! i think that i absoluetly scandelous!!

I got this tape sometime in the early 90s after the video vendor himself recommended it and it turned out to be fantastic. This was certainly Filmation's best cartoon and the movie itself is better than the Bravestarr series. The whole effort and theme was perhaps the most creative I've ever seen in any single cartoon and they were also pretty bold when it came to dark themes and violence. The opening sequence for the movie where the tribe is destroyed is amazing. With great characters, some fantastic villains and a nail biting story from start to finish, this movie is something that I personally feel that should not be missed by any fan of cartoons in general. Its too bad that it was so easily forgotten even though not many would have seen it in the first place.

He-man was ending and filmation needed a new hit cartoon.They created bravestarr to replace he-man. Mixing space and wild west shows into one.fimation created a full series plus put a movie in the works. They took a big gamble on bravestarr. The movie would be the pilot to the series and would set everything up.Animation for the film was really good and had a space ace/ dragons lair type feel to it.It also used early computer effects.Released in movie theatres in 1988 as bravestarr the movie, The film was a box office bomb in America. The show also failed on TV leading to the death of filmation studios! The film Would be retitled bravestarr the legend for it's uk release.The movie would not get a VHS release in America. This helped kill the show more. Without the movie pilot, kids didn't get the history of the show the movie set up.bci has announced bravestarr the movie will be getting an American DVD release next year.The film is pretty good, and worth a watch when it gets released.

I used to love Bravestarr and it is possible to own on video as i have it. it does leave you wanting more though as you want to know more ever notice how there are bringing all the old programs out again. they don't make them like they used to.
