Os Trapalhões na Guerra dos Planetas (lit: The Bunglers in the War of the Planets) is a 1978 Brazilian comedy film directed by Adriano Stuart. It is the thirteenth film of the Brazilian comedy group Os Trapalhões, starring Renato Aragão, Manfried Sant'Anna, Antonio Carlos, and Mauro Faccio. The film is a parody of the George Lucas's Star Wars franchise. Outside of Brazil, mainly in English-speaking countries, this film is known by the suggestive title of Brazilian Star Wars.[2]

Cast

Production and reception

Because of the special effects, the film was shot in videotape format, but was later expanded to 35mm in the United States, although there are legal restrictions on showing the material outside Brazil.[3]

The Cinema Snob, a sister website of the better known The Nostalgia Critic, did a review of the film, referring to it as Brazilian Star Wars. He criticized the movie, considering it not funny, too long due to too many slow motion scenes and finding the main characters annoying, and poor special effects.[4]
