Sol Bianca - The Legacy - Limited Edition Boxed Set - Region 1 DVD

Both crews eventually find their way to Earth, which is now encased in a Dyson Sphere, a metal shell approximately the diameter of the orbit of the moon. The Admiral, who serves as Gyunter's commander, regards the pirate ship as a fabulous artifact and is determined to capture it at any cost. Inexplicably, Gyunter turns on the Admiral in the heat of battle and fires a nuclear missile. The Sol Bianca not only survives the blast, it's resurrected, with enough power to vaporize the evil Admiral--although Gyunter somehow survives. The sketchy storylines and flat character interactions do little more than tie together the sky chases, elaborate effects, and shoot-'em-up action. Writer Hideki Mitsui's stolid dialogue lacks the outrageous espirit de corps that won the earlier incarnations of Sol Bianca so many fans. (Rated 13 and older: violence, occasional profanity, nudity, sexual situations) --Charles Solomon
