Titan A.E. (2000) **
Directed by Don Bluth and Gary Goldman. With the voices of Matt Damon, Drew Barrymore and Bill Pullman. It would be fair to say that this animated sci-fi adventure pic isn't nowhere as good as the unfairly maligned "Star Wars: Episode 1 - The Phantom Menace" (1999). But since it doesn’t carry the baggage of the insanely inflated expectations that have wounded the George Lucas epic, maybe the audiences will appreciate it for what it really is - a nice, average, little adventure movie about evil aliens trying to exterminate the human race.
