Bewertung von WallyB
Despite the claims this is not the "first mainstream gay film". That honor must go to the far superior "The Broken Hearts Club". Regardless of the many high ranking reviews (including an absurd 100 from San Francisco's Mick LaSalle) this film falls short on many levels. As a comedy, it isn't that funny. As a romance, it isn't that believable and as a breakthrough film it isn't that original. Billy Eichner whining for two hours has little comic appeal which makes it next to impossible to believe Luke Macfarlane would be even remotely attracted to him. Every funny line is already in the trailer and some of them are out of context or even missing in the final film. Celebrity cameos are a brief line or two ( three or five for Debra Messing ) and add next to nothing. While the F-bombs and sex scenes make it a hard "R" they really don't move the story much despite Luke's abs. A far superior "gays are just folks" movie is Greg Betlanti's "The Broken Hearts Club" which has not only realistic dialogue but some heartfelt insight.
Can't believe this is getting kudos for SFX.
Granted they are decent for 1971 but compared to today they are dreadful. Opening shots of the space station show it lugging from frame to frame and looking like an HO gauge train set.
The anti-nuke storyline is dated and everything about it reeks of the 70s. Enjoy this as a campy throwback but it's more "1999" than "2001".

I can't believe the high ratings people are giving this train wreck. Is it serious sci-fi like "The Expanse" or "Battlestar Galactica" ? No, not nearly as intelligent or complex. Is it comedic like "Galaxy Quest" ? Not even close. Simplistic, sophomoric toilet humor. Way way too many anachronistic references to current material.
This is 400 years in the future ! Do we sit around making references to things from 1622 ?
No, we do not. I know you have to have SOME lamp posts to allow the audience to relate but you don't need them every five minutes.
The absurd use of contemporary music and movies is lazy and out of place. In most episodes you can quickly identify the Star Trek, Star Wars, Twilight Zone episode that is being ripped off, and not in a good way. The music is way too bombastic, repetitive and derivative of other themes. The only quality aspect of the show is the visual effects but these days anyone can buy those.
