Harsh for even DTV
First off, there is no argument to be made that this was anything other than a bad movie. It's hard not to mention the use of common book lights as communication devices or the blatant use of miniatures for all exterior shots, as many before me already have. I was somewhat surprised that Godzilla (or Space Godzilla) did not come to finish the destruction of the moonbase after the meteor storm. The interiors were oddly typical for a sci-fi film, which was somewhat out of place.No one in this movie deserved to survive - Sorry Christian. These people made such textbook awful decisions throughout the movie that it was impossible to root for any of them. I would not trust a single one of them to feed my dog while I was on vacation, much less the lot of them to man a zillion-dollar moonbase. For a room that was allegedly on lockdown, the med bay was accessed repeatedly, and NO ONE WOULD CLOSE THE DOOR, or even MONITOR IT. Have none of these folks ever seen a sci-fi movie? Also - and I've not seen anyone address this yet - why did they think it would be a good idea to access Bruce's logs for ideas to defeat the creature? I mean, how successful was he? And did not the faux Bruce seem a little lucid and well-groomed to be legitimate? That said, I really enjoyed it. It was a perfect subject for my regular Bad Movie Night with Friends, and it did not disappoint.
score 4/10
