innsil There is a lot to enjoy in this film. A knowledge of film tropes, an enjoying the dynamics of friends making a film a key to the highest level of enjoyment. If you are not familiar with Red Letter Media, it may take a few viewings to let it grow on you. If you like trash films, like friendship or hate cops - this film will be for you!Easy light watching for a night you just want to have a glass of wine & clear your mind. Of special note is the performance of Mike Stoklasa as "past cop". it is easy to find oneself smiling whenever he is on screen. Patton Ozwald is always gr8, playing w/i the same frame for the film. With the right mood, set & setting: a thoroughly enjoyable experience.
lennholm82 This is an intentionally bad movie from the guys who frequently says, on their review shows, that the "so bad it's good" thing only works on movies that are unintentionally bad. Nothing more needs to be said about this movie. It's not funny and it's not entertaining.They should stick to talking about movies, that's where they're entertaining.For all their "insights" into the flaws of big budget movies, it seems they simply aren't competent movie makers themselves after all, and because of it they hide behind the "intentionally bad" shield so that they can say: "It's stylistically designed to be that bad, we know exactly what we're doing! Aren't we wacky and funny and genius by doing something so bad it's great?". Of course, eagerly cheered on by their fan army. Although it's not cheering, instead they're called "hacks" and "frauds", which here doesn't mean what it actually means but instead is RLM code for "I'm in on the joke! I'm part of the club! I'm a comedic genius just like Mike!"
hlocnw I enjoyed this movie because of the lessons it teaches about telling a story on a tiny budget.Mike, Rich, and Jay (along with the other members of the RLM team) focus most of their output talking about movies, about what makes them work and what makes the fall short.Space Cop is very self-aware, and I don't think it can be viewed by itself as a standalone movie. In many ways, it is a meta-movie, designed to point out the elements that comprise storytelling on the screen.It's not hilarious or beautiful or fascinating; it's something else, a secondary communication from the creators that brings together many of the ideas from Half In the Bag, Best of the Worst, and The Plinkett Reviews.I enjoyed this movie, but I did lot of homework with RLM over the years to get the points they are making. I accept it for what it is.
BartSamson It's hard to qualify a movie like Space Cop. I don't think it can be fully appreciated if you don't know the Red Letter Media guys, and if you are not familiar with their shows "Best of the Worst" and "Half in the Bag". The movie is self-referential from start to finish, with lots of nods specially to "Best of the Worst" episodes from the opening credits to the ***SPOILER*** Len Kabasinski cameo and stunt doubling. The "Samurai Cop" references also had me in stitches!All in all, I wouldn't say the story kept me riveted, nor the gags had me rolling on the floor, but it was a very funny movie for me, as a fan of Rich Evans and Mike Stoklasa's overacting. It's like having your (talented) friends making a movie. You can see all the work and efforts that went into it (specially if you listen to the commentary track), you're already won to their brand of humor and the end result is very endearing.If you are not fans of Mike, Rich, Jay, Jack and all the gang, better skip it. You won't get the joke.
