I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Awesome Movie
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
View MoreI don't normally award "1"s to movies. Even dregs like "Space Mutiny" and "Castle of Fu Manchu" will get a "2" or better ("Mutiny" actually spent some money on sets and effects, and "Fu" had Christopher Lee in it). It takes something especially awful, totally devoid of entertainment value or even basic human emotion, to get me to rate it as a "1". Not only do I have to dislike the film, I have to HATE it.Not only do I have to HATE it, I have to DESPISE it. BUT, if ever a film deserved a "1" rating, it is "Spacejacked". This film has been in rotation on cable for several years, and I have tried to watch it several times. Or rather, the first couple of times I tried to watch it. Then I tried to just switch back to it every few minutes. Then I simply tried to catch the ending and the credits. But I simply cannot make myself do it. This film makes dreck like "Hobgoblins" and "Knights" look like "Citizen Kane". In fact,calling "Spacejacked" "dreck" is an insult to dreck. The sets wouldn't pass muster on a "Captain Video" serial episode. The costume designs would be rejected by the drama department at a middle school. The score is a total 'disconnect' from the events on the screen. The acting...well, the extras and the actors in the minor parts all do their best, but Corbin Bernsen (who used to actually be good) stinks up the joint something awful. I can only assume that he took one look at the script, decided that his career was basically over, and said, "What the hell, I'm gonna stink up the joint." What's worse, is he is STILL the best actor in the film. This film drips incompetence and laziness from every frame of its film stock. It's not even fun to watch as a 'Golden Turkey'/"MST" style stinker, because on top of all its other faults, it's got no heart. I mean, come on, even "Plan 9 From Outer Space" had a heart. I can't recommend this under any circumstances, and I'm the fellow who once said that "The Starfighters" would be watchable if you were in a certain weird mood. Avoid like the plague, and do NOT pay money to see this!
View MoreYa know, just when you think you've seen the worst films ever, another one comes along & quickly dispels that line of thinking. This flick is a disaster right from the opening credits on. The acting, the worst. "Barnes, step away from the laptop", O M G!Not to mention some stupid-looking android who appeared to be trying to emulate Data from Star Trek . The scary looking people, frightening. The cheesy costumes, bad wigs, etc., hurts the eyes. The gratuitous sex scenes, which might appeal to adolescent boys.I mean, How on Earth can crap like this get produced---was there not one person, crew & cast, who didn't say "jeez, should we Really be doing this whatever it is?" Much less dozens of 'em.I really feel for the poster who said they'd actually bought that mess. & when they said "This is not a movie you need to see", they truly made the understatement of the day. My advice would be Run away as fast as you can screaming should you ever come across it! Oy-vey
View MoreLets face it, this is a movie youll love or hate no happy medium.Its a cult movie of the highest order, ed wood would be proud.The actors are obviously hamming it up which is whats called for.So if youre going to comment on this from an "im a film buff" point of view then you just dont get it.This is pure kitch and a cult classic
View Morewhat's not to say? Nail-biting suspense, dazzling special effects, amazing acting and a brilliantly original sci-fi plot all contribute to one of the most spellbinding cinematic experiences in entertainment history. Dip into the kid's college fund if need be, but SEE SPACEJACKED!
