Oh, 'Chronicles of the Starlit Throne', you cinematic paradox, you. A film that dares to ask the question, 'What happens when you cross a smarty-pants teacher with a star-hopping astronaut?' and answers with a resounding, 'Why, not much!' Barley Fitzgerbeet delivers his lines with the enthusiasm of a medieval monk on a scriptorium all-nighter, while Alec Grouse-ness's astronaut has all the charisma of a black hole. And let's not forget Martin Lawn-chops, whose guardian of the Starlit Throne is about as enigmatic as a teenager's diary – oh, the mystery! Lars von Trihorse, with a name more epic than this film, directs with all the finesse of a sledgehammer to a piece of fine china. The quill may be mightier than the laser sword, but unfortunately, the script isn't mightier than the urge to fall asleep. Our heroes' quest to solve a cosmic mystery before it's too late is a race against time indeed – for the audience to find the nearest exit. I give it a 4.5, because, let's face it, even sarcasm can't completely mask the pain.
