Review Time: this project is poor
Fundamental elements: there is a
voice-over element, numbers and words on screen, time jumps and place jumps.
Science-fiction elements/Action sequences: both of these give this title value, it either looks well put
together or something worthwhile watching or I am trying to be fair here and
say the science-fiction elements or the action sequences
Storyline/Performances: this storyline is
terrible, I mean I get it; they get lost in space [I mean it says it in the
title,] but they could have come up with something better than this; in short
for 130 minutes of a film title I want a better payoff than just these
characters in space then the ending credits suddenly appear, how about
rewriting the end of this title to include 20 minutes or something to that
effect where these characters discuss heading towards another planet, landing
on this planet, where we leave these characters building a campsite [so that it
just says to the audience if we get the green light for a sequel, we will begin
here but if we don't as far as we know they went exploring on this planet and
potentially many other planets.] Yes I am aware that my idea sounds a little
bit cheesy, but then again this took me a short amount of time to come up with
something like this and it is something slightly better than what this title
went with and more importantly at least my idea has the potential to feel like
a better rounded feel to the end of this project [I will say this again then
what they went with.]
The
performances now this is a difficult thing, because are these performances poor
or were these performers trying to make something out of what was given to
them, you see I do try to remain unbiased in all of my blogs, but in cases such
as this; the question has to be asked Is it the performers or the script which
makes these performances poor? I have to say generally speaking firstly I think
it is a bit of column A. and a bit of column B. and secondly these performances
range from poor to mixed to be fair or reasonable.
This film receives: 3/10, if the truth
was known giving this project a mark hasn't been easy, because let me put it
this way when this title is good, it can be anything between watchable to
interesting to good or somewhere around here, but when it is not so good, it
can be anything from watchable to this title is tedious to after I have done
this review I can either never see this project again or go many years without
seeing it, so in a round-about way a 3 out of 10 seems just about right to me.
