Incannerax What a waste of my time!!!
Titreenp SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?
ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
tanweth When I took a look at where this movie, if you can actually call it that, was made. The first thing that popped in my head was a salsa commercial telling you where some off brand name salsa was made - "New York City?!" Yeah .. it was made in .. a little eye popping here .. Metuchen New Jersey?! Okay .. that explains a lot all by itself.I actually was kinda torn between giving it a 2 or a 7. I finally decided against the 7 since it just wasn't quite up MST 3000 standards. Almost but not quite. Alright, it wasn't even close. Never mind. Two.On the other hand I think this is about the cheesiest rip-off movie I've ever had the pleasure/displeasure of watching. Re:Aliens. Honestly, can you really say a guy wearing a hoody and Carhart coveralls is a monster? Well, maybe ... hmm .. no .. no you can't .. not in a sci-fi movie. Sorry. Okay, okay, so James Arness pretty well pulled it off in The Thing from Another World. Must've been better Carharts back then. And cooler hoodies.If you like pure cheese though, the limburg variety, then definitely you don't want to pass this up. Just don't forget to bring some crackers.
in1984 A spoof on early alien/spaceship sci-fi. Unfortunately, the intentionally retro creature FX and visuals seem to have turned some people off.Nonetheless, it has a good story and if you can handle the intellectual challenge of comedy mixed with science fiction, you should enjoy it. If your part of the 50s generation, you may end up taking it too personally. If you're young and used to 3D game FX, it may go completely over your head for the lack visual realism you take for granted.If there's a defect, it's that it's a little slow getting started and there are some leaps in the story line that don't fit into the retro-space-alien plot. But the intelligent space-alien-mocking and acting make up for it enough to be worth watching.
WhoFan 5 out of 10 for the effort, but a little to "Aliens" for my taste. Similar story lines, just slight different characters. And what's with the lesbian twist to everything now, like science fiction books of the 80's all had to have a female hero. Not that's anything wrong with that, but it's just not original. Some predictable parts, but they did come out with some small original stuff, that's why I did enjoy the movie, even though I did fast forward a few little parts. As for the small budget… I don't care; at least they got the movie made. More money into this movie would just make the visuals better of course, but the story line would just be the same. I don't like it when the complete movie is dark, but then it's a budget thing. As for the acting, not that bad, I guess that made the movie, no over acting, I think, then I'm not an expert. I did like the weapons noises, but then again, I saw Aliens many times, so I like the sound. It had its moments, but I hope they don't make a second part, because they left that open of course if they make any money from this one. (I hope they do get some cash, for the effort)My 2¢
dbborroughs Ship full of marines with one civilian are sent to a far off prison planet to find out what happened to the people on the planet and to stop the explosion of nuclear power plane which could destroy the interstellar jump gates. Well written and decently acted scifi story is sunk by a no budget approach that results in too cheap sets and costumes (its cardboard and cast offs). To be certain the cast manages to sell the story as much as possible,but at the same time the sets and props are so poor that watching this is a tough haul. Honestly this looks like what I was doing back in my film-making salad days in high school. Personally I'm bothered that the budget for the film didn't exist because had there been some money, any money, this might have been the sort of film that ends up in a rotation on cable TV. As it stands now the film will only be seen by those who stumble upon it painfully unaware that their rental was more than the entire budget for the film. If you can be very very forgiving of the lack of money and want to see a space opera that could have been better I recommend the film. If you can't deal with card board sets and cut corners stay away.
