Another Plan from Outer Space

Decent movie, but could've been summed up into a 30 minute twilight zone episode watch the first 10 minutes and then fast forward to the last 20 minutes there's nothing to miss in between

One of those great little independent sci-fi film gems with a 50's retro feel that come out of nowhere. Shot in black and white, enjoyable to watch with a mix of mystery and humor. It is about 5 returning astronauts stranded when they crashland in a desert. I am a big sci-fi film buff and it lived up to my expectations. I highly recommend this film. So treat yourself, like they say get some popcorn, sit back, relax and enjoy the show.

I watched this movie on the same day that I watched "Ares 11". Both had the same problem - they would have been better as part of an anthology series. That fact annoyed me a lot while watching "Ares 11" but a lot less so watching this one. This movie was a bit slow at times but wasn't boring overall. I'd prefer to give it 6.5

Most of the acting was good, but some of it wasn't. Some aspects of the story weren't very original, but I think it was put together in a somewhat unique way.

I liked the music a lot. It reminded me of 1950's Sci Fi and "The Twilight Zone". It helped set the right mood and tone. Being in black and white, it was probably supposed to have a 1950's look.

For those expecting an homage to 1950s sci-fi outer space movies, you'll be sadly disappointed. There's very little action in this clunker that revolves around five astronauts returning from Mars who crash land on earth. If you like close-ups of the five actors, then you will enjoy this film. The first 2/3 of the film is nothing but close-ups and dialogue as the astronauts try to find a way to survive in the desert. It's only in the last third of the film that some action begins to take place. Very little action, however. The acting is stiff and there are no scene changes to speak of. Maybe the best thing about the entire film is the production value from the opening credits.

Not recommended!

Wasn't that keen on it to be honest. I certainly wouldnt recommend this to my pals or host a bad movie night with this as the feature presentation.
