Futurama: Bender’s Big Score

In a gleaming future where delivery ships zip across the galaxy, the Planet Express crew finds itself back on the air after a sudden revival from cancellation. The series‑long blend of sardonic humor and absurd sci‑fi spectacle returns, painting New New York as a bustling, neon‑lit playground for improbable adventures. The tone is unmistakably irreverent, balancing witty banter with a sense that anything — no matter how wild — could happen at any moment.

Fry arrives from a past that feels both nostalgic and disorienting, his clueless optimism colliding with the sharp‑tongued, no‑nonsense commander Leela. Their chemistry is a constant push‑and‑pull, underscored by the ever‑present antics of Bender, the self‑servicing, beer‑loving robot whose reckless charm often steers the crew into trouble. Guiding them from the sidelines is the absent‑minded genius Professor Farnsworth, whose inventions are as likely to cause chaos as they are to solve it, while Hermes brings bureaucratic order and a dry wit that keeps the operation ticking. Adding a fresh dynamic is Lars, a charismatic newcomer whose presence nudges the established relationships into new, surprising directions.

The revived team soon discovers that their renewed success has attracted a cunning group of “sprunging” scammers—charismatic con artists who see the crew’s resources as a perfect target. Their playful deception quickly escalates, pulling Bender into a bewildering temporal scheme that threatens to upend the very fabric of history. The promise of time‑bending hijinks amplifies the film’s classic blend of high‑stakes sci‑fi and slapstick, hinting at paradoxes and mishaps that keep the audience guessing.

Against this backdrop of interstellar delivery routes, corporate intrigue, and mischievous time travel, the film invites viewers to revel in the chaotic chemistry of its beloved cast. The mood swings between frantic action and laid‑back humor, ensuring that every twist feels both inevitable and delightfully unexpected, leaving the galaxy — and the crew — poised on the edge of another wildly unpredictable ride.
