When Star Wars meets "The Truman Show" and "The Matrix".

In the beginning the movie cleverly spoofs "The Truman Show". The whole part were "The Truman Show" is being spoofed is by far the best bit of the movie. At the end it suddenly turns into an cartoon, spoofing "The Matrix". The ending doesn't really blend in with the rest of the movie and I would had liked it far better if it had just and only spoofed "The Truman Show".

Despite that the last part is not really fitting in with the rest of the movie it still is pretty funny and has some clever dialog and inside jokes.

Nothing wrong with this, just plain good old fun.
