Space Milkshake

I wasn't expecting much and it was better than I was expecting.

Most of the other reviews cover it's charms and deficits.

If you like programs like Red Dwarf, this is not as good but you will probably enjoy. No brainer entertainment good for a rainy afternoon or to unwind after work.

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!

How could it go wrong with two of the hottest ladies in the universe. Light-hearted fun sci-fi. Well worth the watch. The cast worked well together. Don't expect big budget action, it would have totally spoiled this gem.

Robin Dunne and Amanda Tapping off of that Sanctuary, Billy Boyd from LOTR, Kristin Kruek - Lana Lang from Smallville, and some random Gay guy called George Takeaway or something like that as the bad guy.

Sounds good? Well it's schlock Sci-fi with its tongue firmly in its cheek. Evil rubber ducks, running gags, robot bodysnatchers and alternate timeliness. And it's great fun!

There is no doubt about how stupid this movie is. It all looks like it's made with a very, very limited budget, and the makers clearly don't care at all that it looks like that, in fact it just makes it even better. The whole point of this movie is to have a bit of fun, by making a sci-fi parody, a movie you just can't take too seriously. I'll admit I laughed more than with a "normal" comedy. The monsters, the story, the actors all contributed to it. The cast is only four people, and they all did a good job, especially Billy Boyd that I thought had the funniest character. If you decide to watch this movie just do it with an open mind, get ready for some absurd humor, and just don't expect a high quality science fiction movie. It's a dumb movie but it's fun.
