Classificação de jlpicard1701E
When I watched the first two seasons I was flabbergasted by the more serious retelling of a well known subject of the mid-1960s.
It was by far approached more seriously than its previous iteration (less childish) and the adventure did start almost instantaneously.
This alone made me watch all two seasons in a continuous line and at the end I was left wanting for more.
I didn't know by then that there would be a third season after the second, and indeed I just discovered it just recently.
It took off where the second left me wishing for more and indeed it was once again a surprise, a very pleasant surprise.
This series never ceases to grip the viewer to his seat just like a magnet. Every episode, starting for Season 1 Episode 1 leaves you in awe and wanting to follow further.
I have never known a series that actually compels you to "drag" you into it like this.
When it comes to science compared to fiction well, there are indeed some discrepancies, but since this is mostly to be taken as an outworld adventure, more than an indeed science directed filmed product it fits perfectly into that category.
Some critics criticized the newly created figure of Dr. Smith as being too flat, too odd and not too fleshed out by the actress who plays it.
I might diverge from such criticism, since I like to "hate" this new Dr. Smith.
The character is indeed a bit slow in growing, but if one really follows the storyline he might realize that she is a very complex, and at times, even a very conflicted entity. So, nothing to criticize here.
The robot. Ominous, threatening at first, and indeed a shock to the system when first seen on earlier episodes, and whomever created this character knew perfectly well how to handle this character and make it into a fully functional member of the cast.
Maxwell Jenkins as Will Robinson, is a far cry from Bill Mumy's character. More grounded and more mature than your average young boy, still having some of the fears and character conflicts such a young person may have, comes out to be more real for modern audiences.
The rest of the Robinson family and additional characters all play well together as a team and one can see how well they respectively incarnate such characters.
The direction is well led with an even handed complexity throughout the three seasons and the production values are simply above average throughout, including the musical score, as well as special and visual effects, making it into a true modern cinematic experience.
I gave it 9/10 stars just because, as I said, scientifically the series might be a bit stretched out and somehow unbelievable, but when it comes to sending a family into the unknown, the adventurous premise still sticks perfectly to make this an action packed and thrilling ride experience.
I watched it more than once and I guarantee you that it never gets boring, if it is real space adventure you want, but if you look for a kind of "2001" experience, well, that's really not it.
In short, and if asked to recommend it, I certainly would due to its intrinsic family values, and although more mature subjects are also treated in it, they are easily to be explained by the elderly members of family components to their more younger offspring.
In my view, it's a must watch.

And yes, there are many references to other such movies, just like "2001: A Space Odyssey", "2010: The Year We Make Contact", "Solaris", "Sphere" and indeed somehow, being the successor, to "Interstellar".
Some say that the main character is devoid of emotions or feelings. Well, considering that an astronaut of this kind, sent out all by himself into deep space, must have been quite heavily trained to adapt to a solitary space trip, there is no wonder on why he seems to be emotionless. He is not. He just knows how to control his emotions. The entire movie starts to grip your interest once in space, and from then on it is indeed a very well knit story, despite some key references to other sources. But it is indeed interesting to watch how nevertheless this film manages to cope with all of them without being an exact duplicate. In my view, although the special and visual effects are just what they are for a low budget flic like this one, it is the storyline and the reduced cast that hold it all together. The only pity is its ending which surely would deserve either a sequel or a streaming miniseries, since it did leave open what happens next. I hope someone of good will and enough means may come on board to rescue this concept and bring it to an end as it certainly deserves. I can recommended this movie, although as I said, it sometimes reminds you to the above mentioned ones without really being leading into the same direction. I would call it a science fiction/mystery/psychological adventure movie. Just give it a try. In any case much better than the trash Hollywood dishes up these days, and less costly.

This is the question one must ask himself while watching this... how can I put it? Infamous? Dull? Stupid? Below the waist? Anyway, tremendously trashy movie.
I don't know what went on in both Boris Szulzinger (director, also writer) or in Pierre Sterckx and Marc-Henri Wajnberg (also writers), when they decided to put this project in motion.
Probably, since this was made a few years later than "The Rocky Horror Picture Show", they must have thought that another such attempt would be worthwhile, but seeing that the former was a kind of a Musical Fantasy movie, and not indeed just yet another comedy, one must ask on what basis they started doing it.
Just four years earlier "Dracula and Son", starring the otherwise great Christopher Lee, and even six years earlier "Old Dracula", starring David Niven bombed totally at the box office and although in the meanwhile they might have joined the ranks of other so called "cult movies" (only heaven knows why), "Mama Dracula" doesn't seem to be part of them.
In fact I just found it due to my music score research, which is the only worthy thing in it, just because it was composed by none other than Roy Budd.
And since Roy Budd had been known to have composed some of the best scores for movies like "Get Carter", "The Black Windmill", "The Wild Geese I & II" and indeed for "Who Dares Wins" (Aka "The Final Option"), I assumed that even this effort was made for a worthy film.
Alas, how wrong I was.
And besides, there was already a much better depiction of the source material based on Countess Elizabeth Bathory made in 1971 by none other than Hammer Films which starred Ingrid Pitt in the main role as "Countess Dracula". Although that was indeed a horror movie.
So, again, why had they to waste money in something like this?
My answer to my preceding question on why Louise Fletcher did accept the role has only two possibilities: one, she needed the money; two. She was handed a better script to start with, only to be embroiled and trapped under contract, while the authors did shamelessly re-write it during filming.
Something that even happened to great actors such as Malcolm McDowell and Peter O'Toole while working on the infamous "Caligula" movie.
In any case, story or no story logic, this project had no real bearing nor did it have a real final goal. It was just made for the fun(?) of it.
Probably just to have the director's and writer's names written on the billboards in the hope of notoriety and fame.
And Louise Fletcher, in her usual professional way does what she was supposed to do: act in it, but one can easily see that she was only doing it by the numbers, with no real enthusiasm.
It is only for her presence in it that I gave it an uplifting three stars, because were it just for the movie alone, I wouldn't even have considered to pick one to start with, that bad of an experience (at least for yours truly) it was.
Instead of having been entertained, I was utterly embarrassed for all the performers in it, who I believe and hope, have finally found more worthy projects to work on since then.
So, what is my final judgment on "Mama Dracula"?
Simply put? Forget it, it does not exist, but should you want to be educated on how not to ever film something like this, this would probably be one of the finest examples among others.
And would I recommend it? Are you kidding me?
Why experience something so abysmally idiotic and painful?
