Requires a taste for camp SF, some wits and a sense of humor.
Great camp fantasy film with a distinctively quirky sense of humor. Obviously if you're looking for a predictable, Michael Bay taking-itself-too-seriously Sci-Fi drama this is the wrong movie. If you were never a proper fan of authentic SF literature you will not get it and you'll end up disappointed. Much like some of the genre's best stories, the movie is a beautifully woven combination of preachy philosophy, quirky humor, nerdy references, Cold War era antiwar internationalism and science stretched too far. Great fun overall.
It's a Pilot for TV series remade into a movie
So... I have no idea why it's not anywhere in IMDb but apparently Hgh Moon intention was to be a TV series. And that actually explains quite a bit about this "TV movie".
I'm happy they used the footage for something. But the end result is not the best. Too much squeezed in and at the same time not enough. And then it ends... without a real ending. You get an answer about what's going on with the moon, but little else. Personally I wouldn't have minded seeing more.

I could bear it for half an hour
actually with great effort after the first ten minutes. It was right then, that I realized it was intended to be a satiric film mocking the science fiction movies, and though I had already suspected that it was doing so in a most naive, awkward and uninspired way I thought I should give it the chance to prove that it was something better than this. Well I could stand it for another twenty minutes before deciding that I shouldn't add the cost of wasting my time to the cost of the renting fees I had paid for it. So I just gave it up! I am still trying to understand why this film was made. It is such a bore, such a senseless thing (I don't say "trash" out of respect for the makers who obviously had something different in mind when they went for it), such a cheap nonsense! Well, I may be naive and senseless myself and this may be the reason I cannot give it the credits some other viewers think it deserves presenting this crap almost as a masterpiece, yet, as a fanatic and experienced cinefil( movie fan),this is the last film I would ever recommend to you. Test me if you dare!

Unique and Awesome
Wooow, another funny and unpredictable sci-fi which is weird enough to glue us to our seats... People are unbelievable and enemies of progress sometimes, why in this boring TV show world would u rate this classic series 1 so it cannot continue to air, so now that people have contributed to the cancellation of this nice TV show, I guess we have to stick to the boring ones which r being aired. We could have rated it like 7 or 8 so we could know what's in episode 2 or 3. What is better than a sci-fi which has suspense, love and great comedy? Tell me!!! But no, people had to just contribute to its cancellation so now we are not going to get any better series to watch during the week... I can't believe some boring TV shows rather have high ratings and are still airing... Are you guys kidding me, aren't you people sick and tired of detective and cop TV shows already, we all know how it ends, the bad guy kills and the detectives or cops go and catch them, so predictable... I support shows like high moon, the after,z nation, Kyle xy and other sci-fi TV shows with action and much comedy rather than the ones with high ratings yet nothing to write home about... 10(excellent) for high moon... Thank you for making me laugh on watching the first episode
worst movie ever
When I first saw the movie on the internet, I thought that a space station discovered alien life and the aliens are going to attack the space station. But, I was so very wrong about the movie. I can not tell you about the movie because that would spoil the plot. But, I will tell you this: there are scenes in this movie that wanted to make me kill myself; metaphorically. So if you are planning to watch this movie then think of the worst movie ever that you saw and watch that because it will be much more better than this movie. I think that the worst movie I ever saw was the movie called snow shark and I would rather watch that movie than this movie by a long shot.
