Plot: A futuristic dystopia is the setting for this tale about good versus evil and a magical space-sphere out to reestablish a civilized society. An orphanage in a bleak and deserted landscape imprisons a large group of youngsters who have divided into good and bad groups. One day, while competing at roller-skate ball, the teams come across a bowling-ball-sized sphere named Bodhi (a Sanskrit word equivalent to enlightened compassion). Bodhi communicates with the good kids, but the bad ones cannot understand the sphere's electronic burbles. The nasty Darstar (Adrian Pasdar) steals Bodhi and heads out into the forbidden world beyond the orphanage. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, All Movie Guide

Solarbabies is one of the quintacential movies of the 80's. It has everything from cheesy custumes and mediocre dialog. I recommend everyone see this movie at least once!

Flash back to the 80's with a good fammily flick
Added 2/8/2009

This is a classic 80's flick with all the "new" specia effects of those days. it was a wounderful story of friendship, hope, and determination.
it takes place in the future , when the rains have stopped and water is scares. the army rules and homeless and parentless children are sent to camps more like prisons.
through in your usual bad guys, vs good guys, add an alien and boom, an instant cult classic. if this is your first time seeing it you may think its an over done story with the save the water thing, but this is probably the one that started all the others since then. its still a most enjoyable flick and safe for the hole family.

This a futuristic movie about some kids who take on their repressive government with the help of a glowing ball from outer space. It is an exciting story about good vs. evil. We saw it years ago and were delighted to find it again. I wouldn't recommend it for young children, but older ones and adults are sure to enjoy this movie.
