Synopsis

A comedic drama about a group of people (and several robots) living on a space station in a 1970s-version of the future. When a new Assistant Captain arrives, she inadvertently ignites tensions among the crew, prompting them to confront their darkest secrets. Barely contained lust, jealousy, and anger all bubble to the surface, becoming just as dangerous as the asteroid that’s heading right for them.

Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Redwarmin This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place
Ceticultsot Beautiful, moving film.
Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
colinedwards-24845 Can't believe that this film was considered a comedy - I saw NOTHING even to bring a smile to my face. No take that back there were a couple of instances where the robots created the smile. In some ways it was like suburbia translated (complete with furniture) onto a space station. So it came with a 70's view of sex and masturbation which hardly helped the lack of story. Given that it was supposed to be a space station there was little evidence of professionalism and chain of command - they seemed to be aimlessly drifting in space with little concern for what may outside the space station or how to manage it. I think this is the first film I have seen where actors smoke - irrespective of where they may be AND so many of them!! I found this difficult to take be it on the command deck or private quarters. So many people with problems one wonders how they were screened to be crew members on a space station in the first place. DULL - unimaginative and sit-com predictability.
Claudio Carvalho The pilot Jessica (Liv Tyler) arrives at the refueling Space Station 76 as the substitute for the former pilot Daniel to work with the alcoholic gay Captain Glenn (Patrick Wilson), who is depressed for missing Daniel. Jessica makes contact with the apparently friendly crew but actually befriends only the mechanic Ted (Matt Borner) and his sensitive seven year-old daughter Sunshine (Kylie Rogers). Ted's unfaithful wife Misty (Marisa Coughlan) is a paranoid Valium addicted woman that has a love affair with the wolf Steve (Jerry O'Connell), who is married to the selfish and neglecting mother Donna (Kali Rocha), and therapy with the robot Dr. Bot. The toxic and manipulative Misty becomes jealous of Jessica and poisons the mind of Sunshine with lies about about her new friend. During the Christmas party, Misty suggests they should play the truth game when secrets are exposed."Space Station 76" is one of those movies that does not work for at least two main reasons. First, the heavy hand of director Jack Plotnick that makes a film too dramatic for a dark comedy and too silly for a drama. The disappointing storyline is the second reason exploring themes like homosexuality, drug, alcohol and cigarette abuse, depression, loneliness, infidelity in a dramatic comedy (or shallow and silly drama). The style retro in the future is also weird and the film seems to be sponsored by the tobacco industry. The conclusion, when most of the relationships in Space Station 76 are destroyed and everybody is stranded in the station is absolutely ironic. The music score is the best and maybe unanimity in this film. My vote is five.Title (Brazil): "Sem Gravidade... Sem Cérebro" ("Without Gravity...Without Brain")
Thomas Pfaff Highlight of the film: Seeing the first sock drawer in space.This is a movie that is a low-budget knockoff of Space 1999 and Seinfeld.A difference being that Seinfeld had a laugh track which helped you know when something was supposed to be funny.The environs of the spaceship looks like it was pulled out of a Space 1999 Set with all of the nice looking parts removed. This makes just about every 1970s sci-fi flick you've seen look higher budget.Nothing is really that funny in this comedy altho' you will perhaps like some devices like the little kid drawing directions to home quarters with a crayon, with a retro-robot cleaning up after her.The movie is about being dysfunctional which... if you are into feeling inferior then you will probably like (some people dig this kind of thing).There isn't really a plot to spoil since there is no plot. You can't really say "at the end of this film, _________ happened and was interesting since there is no __________.Things that do work:The asteroid rotating+tapping against the space station, thus making the actors stop talking. - The sock drawer.Things that don't work:Making a mockery of Christmas as a tool to extend dysfunctionality. - Wood paneling in Space 1999-like quarters - Todd Runngren singing with a guy in the bathtub. - All dialog - The "dumb blond" with the 1970s qualude+booze habit - Globe lighting - 1970s Hologram Chamber - Repeating Robot Doctor - 4 bit microcomputer strapped to a character's arm - Blouses+random comfort debris floating/rotating in space.What could have been done:Adding a plot of any real kind would be well... kind.
bill-1555 It would have been more fun if everyone died! What a depressing mess. How does this kind of garbage get made? Ugh...children as a plot device is weak story telling. Gay captain and boring characters. All i can ask is why? Whay are they in space? Why do they want to live at all? I remember when science fiction films were fun... I remember 1976 and this has none of the fun of films from that generation. Why again does the captain have to be gay? Is it just the sane old hack about making the hero unmanly? What a huge waste! The ending could have been somewhat satisfying if the filmmakers wanted it to be. They had all the parts and it was setup, but the movie ended as hopelessly as it started. Normally I give Indie films a break, but this was a bunch of unhirable Hollywood types, proving why they are... Unhirable. Truly awful film and a huge waste of my time... Now if you're still dumb enough to buy it and watch it, well you might actually like it? Hope that helps.
