Space Babes from Outer Space

I enjoyed the movie. I must admit that I am a sucker for B movies regardless of year. It was funny, fun and a decent story. The direction was great, nice shots all around unlike many B style movies this generation. Practical effects are a go to in my book. Very little CGI and I love that. The acting was better than most and there was beautiful women dancing. The only thing missing was full nudity. If you are going to make a real B movie, you need to be showing it all to get that rating up.

This movie is a total waste of time - even during self-isolation.

It's neither funny nor amusing. It's not even corny. It's just plain dreadful. I thought it was going to have the same vibe as great 80s teen movies. It had a crazy plot, nerds, beautiful women, and gratuitous nudity. But that's where the similarities end. The rest was utter chaos and, and.... well, nothing.

This movie is so bad, I didn't even finish it. I lasted 38 mins. So forgive me if the movie gets better after that. But up to that point it was utter rubbish.

This movie isn't a B-Grade, not even a C, D, or E-Grade. It looks more like the work of amateur horny teenagers.

Give this movie a ultra wide berth.

You can't help but think that with a cast of A-List celebrities or a well-known director such as Steven Speilberg this film would be nominated for an Academy Award. The storyline was a solid original plot where three young ladies from a planet of all women find themselves trapped on Earth seeking a unique form of energy to fuel their space vessel. It isn't a solid Sci-Fi for many fans, but it is a rather remarkable love story in the vein opf 2017's 'The Space Between Us'. Ellie Church, Allison Maier, and Alyss Winkler carried this film. Respectfully I haven't seen this kind of talent from strong female role models since the 2002 film 'Chicago'. Ellie Church & Brian Papandrea (as Charlie) brought an on screen chemistry for the love story that I haven't seen since the 1950 French film 'Un Chant d'Amour'. Powerful heart touching drama. I genuinely felt the love between this duo.

I only had two criticisms regarding 'Space Babes From Outer Space'; Although this movie was marginally female driven, my first criticism has to be the lack of racial diversity. I could easily imagine someone like Yaya Alafia or Lupita Nyong'o being part of this undertaking. My last criticism would be the character of 'Carrieola' was under-used in several scenes that required nudity. I understand for some that on screen nude scenes can often be a career ender, but in situations where the female body is part of an expressive nature ('The Wrestler" 2008) rather than a gratuity of flesh ('Nymphomaniac' 2013) it is simply necessary. The ending itself (which I won't spoil for anyone) is quite a twist. It was reminiscent of M. Night Shyamalan staple of movie twists that I recall from 'The Sixth Sence' - I literally did not see it coming.

Recognizably this film is not for everyone. It came to life as a Kickstarter campaign and is an easy target for trolls who like to hate on matriarchal ideologies. While it is humorous at times, it is not as funny as ( say) the science fiction classic 'Space Balls'. It is a relatively fresh take on modern society that is suppressive of an opposition through censorship - for example those who might refuse Netflix movies to be nominated for prestigious film awards. I found this film to be entertaining, although for full disclosure I watched it for free, and I suspect the majority of viewers would appreciate the same. More bluntly; do not pay for this movie if you can see it in gratis.

It's like Troma and classic 80s late night cult schlock got together and had a baby in 2017! So many great puns! An amazing 80s-esque soundtrack! This is by far one of the best films I've seen this year! Space Babes From Outer Space has cult classic written all over it!

This film has that "late night comedy" feel, without the overabundance of nudity in an attempt to lock in viewers (not to say that there isn't plenty of nudity, but those scenes aren't the selling point of the film). It's definitely the sort of film that you can watch again and again with some chicken nuggets, a few cold beers, and your best friends.

If you slipped the smooth curvy disc into the warm slit of your player expecting to see a science fiction epic, you will be disappointed. Sorely, I might even go as far as to say.

If you expected a movie about space babes who are from outer space, however, you will be entertained to no end.

I advise you to lower your expectations to the level that the movie's title already suggests, so you can comfortably join Vanassa, Ragyna, and Carrieola on their quest for love and space ship energy that's best harvest in a strip club.

Perhaps even lower your expectations even further, so you can be pleasantly surprised.

There is no budget to speak of here. No acting that's going to bring in an oscar. No special effects you can't make yourself on your phone while out drinking with your buddies.

But what you will absolutely get is a bunch of people who had a lot of fun making a movie, and who should be rewarded by watching it.

Whatever you do, if you manage to find that expectation-sweet spot, however narrow its range may be, you are guaranteed to enjoy yourself for almost 90 minutes.
