When the nefarious Dark Helmet (Rick Moranis) hatches a plan to snatch Princess Vespa (Daphne Zuniga) and steal her planet’s air, space-bum-for-hire Lone Starr (Bill Pullman) and his clueless sidekick (John Candy as “Barf”) fly to the rescue. Along the way, they meet Yogurt (Mel Brooks), who puts Lone Starr wise to the power of “The Schwartz.” Can he master it in time to save the day?
