Lost In Space

Pros: Matt LeBlanc in a non-comedic role, action sequences, time-travel

Cons: too much room for a sequel

The Bottom Line: A good Science Fiction movie that does the television show a lot of credit.

Review: The Movie "Lost In Space" came out way back in 1998. It was a remake of a television show that used to be quite popular. The movie itself took a lot of the plot line, and all of the characters when it made it to the big-screen. This was one of the...

Pros: Tons of fun, good special effects.

Cons: Bogs down with the time travel story.

The Bottom Line: Lost in Space is extremely entertaining and exciting.

Review: Lost in Space is one of those movies where you may not have liked it when you first saw it but when given a 2nd chance, you will find it very entertaining.

First of all, the original series was never one to be thought provoking. It was...

Pros: Loads of extras

Cons: None

Review: You just gotta love all the extras New Line Platinum Series DVD have on them. This DVD is no exception. You have fun animated menus, two audio commentary tracks, trailers, behind the scene stuff, and even a game. If you want help with the game,...

Pros: It has good sound

Cons: It is not entertaining

Review: The year is 2058. With Earth;s resources dwindling, human survival depends upon the Robinson Family-launched into space to colonize "Alpha Prime," the only other inhabitable planet in the galaxy. But when a stowaway sabotages the mission, the...

Pros: Quite fun in places, some decent extras on DVD...

Cons: ... feeble plot, some DVD features very poor

The Bottom Line: It's certainly not a sci-fi classic, but it's pretty good fun and a good choice for younger viewers.

Review: Lost in Space was a popular science fiction series some years ago but I never really saw it. So I watched the film with no real expectations either way. And my final opinion is? neither way really. The film starts off with an space dogfight ...

Pros: Some good special effects, William Hurt, a few laughs

Cons: The story, Gary Oldman's character, some bad special effects, time travel/warping

The Bottom Line: If you are really bored, it's raining, and you've got nothing else to do, you may want to rent this one.

Review: If there is one thing that the majority of sci-fi/fantasy movies should generally avoid, it's time travel or time warping. It usually does not make for a good story, and has so many plausibility issues it's scary. There are a lot of things a movie can...

Pros: Special effects, LeBlanc, action scenes

Cons: Gets confusing when the time travel subplot begins, not really loyal to the TV show

The Bottom Line: Fans of the original television series may be disappointed with this film.

Review: This is yet another major motion picture based on a classic television show which rewrites the plot of the story. A world government-run space organization is in the process of creating a sort of space gate that will transport the world's population ...

Pros: Some good FX, some trashy/fun performances, minor thrills.

Cons: The rampant corniness. That Lacey kid.

Review: I think this is just one of those movies that everyone wanted to hate. As it stands after all the hype, it's not all that bad. Yes, the "family" angle was way overdone, and that stupid little monkey is almost as annoying as Jar Jar Binks. What...

Pros: Good special effects, nice bits for long-time fans

Cons: Bizarre plot, unmotivated cast

Review: After growing up with "Lost in Space" reruns, I wanted to love the movie. Needless to say, I was disappointed. What was most disappointing was the poor decisions made on the script, when so many other good choices had been made.

For...

Pros: Better than most "OLD TV SHOW TO NEW MOVIE" movies

Cons: The obligatory shots of the original cast so you can see how old they are.

Review: ahhhh....Lost in Space

In 1975 I was taking karate lessons (it's relevant, trust me) with a friend of mine, Greg. One of the best parts about it was that I went over his house before the lesson and we would watch Lost In Space. Big deal? It...
