Space Wars: Quest for the Deepstar

This movie is not very exciting. The special effects are CGI. How I miss stop motion animation like Robocop 2. The matte paintings, models, and a decent new science fiction movie with some gratuitous nudity. I mean if you are going to make a low budget science fiction movie, write cheesy dialogue, cheaper cgi then can't you throw in something worth while like A pair of naked boobies? I mean either write Oscar worthy sentences or throw in some flesh scenes to make it worth the 90 minutes that are required To view this. Space Wars is just boring. Maybe they can make a remake of it and add in exceptional quality dialogue and an occasionall nip slip.

It's a dream I have. Skip it and watch Life-force from 1985.

When checking out the preview and the average score for this movie, I had serious doubts. A low-budget Sci-Fi film with a preview that doesn't entice usually end up as poor fare.

At times the lighting was iffy, the graphics decent but not blockbuster, and the internal ship sets seemed a bit cramped; but a solid story with pretty good acting cancel out the minor flaws. Also, the pacing should be noted as excellent. At no point did my attention waver.

Space Wars: Quest for the Deepstar delivers in its quest for entertainment. I recommend that all Sci-Fi fans give this movie a chance like I did.

Had a blast watching this popcorn indie Sci Fi action adventure film. Reminded me of growing up in the 80s and renting it at a Mom and Pop Store before Blockbuster existed. Michael Pare and Sarah French had a great chemistry and how to play off each other in their roles. They play Father and Daughter adventurers looking for the Deep Star that could give them whatever they want and bringing a loved one back to life with the liquid essence of the person who passed away and transferred into a cyber human hybrid. The film score is like listening to a space opera performed by Joel Christian Goffin. You can tell Garo Setian put his labor and love into it.

I immediately noticed the very bad casting, all the actors lack charisma and personality and their acting is boring if not ridiculous.

The first half of the movie is just a sequence of actions with very few dialogs, so it's almost entertaining. Nothing spectacular or original. It feels like some washed out guardians of the galaxy, and we follow the heroes as they keep putting themselves in trouble. The CGI looks like a video game with some very bad green screens.

But that's where the film takes another turn for the worse, and the poor writing and acting take over the action scenes. It feels like they ran out of money and decided to focus on the character psychology. The film completely loses its pace and collapses into absolute mediocrity.

If you want some cheesy 60/70s sci-fi movies, watch Starcrash or Barbarella, they are better than this.

How can you not like this film? Reminiscent of those 80, early 90's Michal Pare and Oliver Gruner flims. Good cheap entertainment. If you liked. Nemesis or The Philadelphia Experiment, you gonna like this.

Ya the storylines are weak and the CGI maybe was more expensive than the actors pay but who cares?? Just throw in an old drive in with funky speakers and that consession stand or make yourself some popcorn and pizza and just sit back and enjoy what the 80's was like.

Films like this pass the time where as you dont want to get too serious for a sci-fi series you need to binge to get to the next episode,
