THE PLOT:

A strange rift has opened to another universe. The people are panicking and when Fry decides to condemn himself to the rift a strange creature emerges out of the rift. The planet size creature's motive seems gentle but his true motive may be more sinister then anyone realizes.

ZEDD'S OPINION:

As the last Futurama movie shows that imagination and comedy can go hand in hand. This is a tad stranger then even Futurama is use to but it's still funny. There are some minor taste issues but very minor. 9 STARS.

VOLTRON'S OPINION:

I agree with Zedd, there are some twists and turns and humor abound, a strong edition to the Futurama family, worthy of the name. 9 STARS as well.
