The greatest movie ever made..!

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

I saw this movie before reading any reviews, and I thought it was very funny. I was very surprised to see the overwhelmingly negative reviews this film received from critics.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

There is a new genre out there: science fiction as work place comedy. This is one of the better examples. It puts no effort into logic or sciencetific plausibility. Some of the characters are fairly funny. The acting is professional. I usually find these things either too cloying or silly but this one is pretty decent. If you like it, you should love Interplanetary from 2008 not the blockbuster http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1355575/. I can't see giving this much of a rating considering its mediocrity;it doesn't aspire to more and that is just fine.This is a line to make the review long enough.

I hate spoof movies at the best of times, finding them extremely un-funny,(excepting the hilarious Shaun of the Dead), but this was really lame.I don't understand people drawing comparisons with Red Dwarf. This has none of the charm, and little of the humour that that has. I love Red Dwarf.I made an effort to see this film, as Billy Boyd mentioned it at a Comic Con that I attended. I can see why it died. He said it was made for we sci fi fans... and I can see how they thought it was... but it wasn't.Then again, I didn't like the re-make of The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy, either. (Another show that I adored). Somehow this film just missed, like most supposed comedies of that ilk. It was like a lot of bad comedies... reminded me of Leslie Nielsen films... immature and unintelligent. OK maybe not that bad but, well... no.I think most sci fi fans are looking for their humour to be a bit more cerebral, or at least to be fresh and not spoofing other works. If I want slapstick, I go with WC Fields, and Laurel and Hardy. Rubber tentacles and rubber duckies don't do it for me.Nice try, and obviously some people liked it... I didn't. It was like that Uncle you have at dinner parties that keeps on going, thinking he's terribly witty, and laughing at his own jokes, never noticing that everybody else is bored to tears.

a bit of a slapstick comedy set in space revolving around a space debris clearing station and its zany crew. Billy Boyd does an admirable job as Captain Anton, who is a cross between Shaun from Shaun of the Dead and Captain Mel from Firefly. Kruek is hot in her little space suit and ads some sex appeal.I didn't find Tapping to be that great, but she wasn't horrible, about the same for Dunne, who seemed to overact in parts. George Takei added some comedy relief as the voice of Gary, No stellar plot line here, just some slapstick space fun, decent enough for a quasi sci fi comedy.5/10

This film completely passed my radar and I only came across it by accident. Some well-known actors in a film that draws on the same dead-pan humor and special effects as Red Dwarf.Kristin Kreuk looks great as usual. Amanda Tapping gives a good performance not too far removed from her character on Star Gate and, as expected, George Takei from Star Trek does a great voice for a very unusual visitor to the space station.Personally, I liked it. Just don't expect Star Wars - the budget wouldn't have stretched that far. Don't take it seriously and just go along for the ride. It's daft in places - but laugh-out loud in others. Worth a watch!
