Space Babes from Outer Space

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.

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.

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.

I don't know what the 10 star reviewers are smoking, but I want some. If you want an honest indicator of how good this film is: look at the trailer. The "Space Babes" spaceship is made of cardboard and the control console is literally covered in tin foil. Look, this film came out in 2017, not 1966. There is no reason whatsoever to make a film as poor as this. To even call it a "film" besmirches the more respectable, talented artists who work tirelessly to create cinematic masterpieces. Space Babes is so bad that it doesn't even deserve a Razzie. Last year's Razzie winner compared to this would be an Oscar contender. Truly one of the worst things I have ever seen in my life. It has no redeeming value whatsoever.

I implore you: don't waste your time. Watching paint dry is far more entertaining than this garbage.

I figured this movie would suck but it was actually pretty good. Charlie's family is extremely funny. The girls are a good reason to not make movies in hd (moles, scars, cellulite etc) and the almost good looking one doesn't show her boobs but you can't expect good looking girls to get involved in something like this. There is also a major plot hole (and few smaller ones) but they don't really hurt the movie. According to this site, the little boy who is being told the story is Young Charlie. According to the movie credits and common sense, it is not Charlie.
