Description

An out-of-this-world comedy cast stars in this spaced-out futuristic family comedy. Welcome to Betaville, the world's most exclusive summer camp, where the world's leaders send their children. They are the sons and daughters of presidents and kings, with supervisors to care for them and an army to protect them. Meanwhile, in outer space, Planet Z is threatened by the evil forces of Planet 38. Planet Z's president XM (Tim Kazurinsky) launches a secret plan to trick Planet 38 into attacking Earth instead. A peace-loving emissary from Planet Z recruits the children of Betaville to warn the President (John Astin) about XM's secret plan.

2 out of 5 stars Not Even A Good Family Film.......2005-04-26

Saw this on VHS a few years ago and figured all the copies had been burned and the ashes spread to the four corners of the Earth. Imagine my surprise to see it appear on DVD now. Was somebody clamouring to see a movie starring John Astin, Lou Rawls and Judge Reinhold? I think not. The story involves some nonsense about a camp called betaville where leaders of the world send their children to be safe and sound...until two warring planets decide to get Earth mixed up in their squabble. An Emissary comes to Camp Betaville to warn the children and now President Sender (John Astin) and his scientists have to come up with a secret weapon to stop the alien invaders led by the "charismatic" Tim Kazurinsky. This looked like it might be a decent family film but it's totally unfunny and leaves kids...and parents, totally bored.
