JOSH KIRBY: TIME WARRIOR! CHAPTER 1 - 2

Cinemavixion Review

This two-part adventure, "Josh Kirby: Time Warrior! Chapter 1 - 2," throws audiences into a chaotic blend of science fiction and fantasy. Chapter 1, "Planet of the Dino-Knights," introduces a universe-ending device, the Nullifier, scattered across time by the well-meaning Irwin 1138 to prevent its misuse by the villainous Dr. Zoetrope. The narrative hinges on the unlikely alliance between Irwin, a 20th-century teenager named Josh Kirby, and a half-human warrior, Azabeth Siege, as they race against time to retrieve the Nullifier's fragments. The stakes are immediately high, promising a grand cosmic conflict. Chapter 2, "The Human Pets," escalates the temporal hijinks, transporting Josh and his companions to the distant future of 70,379. Here, they find themselves ensnared by a colossal alien who treats them as mere playthings, forcing them into gladiatorial combat with other bizarre 'toys.' This segment leans into a more absurd and potentially darkly humorous aspect of intergalactic power dynamics, exploring themes of captivity and survival in a truly alien environment. The series appears to offer a pulpy, fast-paced journey through various eras and bizarre alien encounters, driven by its young protagonist's unexpected role as a universe saver.
