6/10
A must see for the fans, but overall maybe better once re-written as episodes..

I've been eagerly awaiting this release since the first whispers from Billy West and then the trailer appearing not long ago.

My brother-in-law preordered it, and seeing as it was coming from America I guessed we'd be late seeing it. How I was wrong, it was delivered over a week early and in my excitement watched as soon as I could.

After the moderate success of The Simpsons Movie which actually turned out to be half decent, I had bigger hopes for Bender's Big Score as Futurama has always been the better series IMO.

Frustratingly though, I feel a little let down. The first 30 minutes were fun and in my opinion the best. I felt the story dragged after that, my interest only being kept up by my enthusiasm for the movie and the occasional joke (maybe I'm being too harsh).

Still, that being said I'd recommend it to anyone who enjoyed the series, as the first 30 minutes, the constant references to the series and the jokes will entertain (even the two songs).

6/10.
