Retro in Space
9 April 2016
Warning: Spoilers
Set in space, but not very much science-fiction. More of a Collection of stories about the dysfunctional relationships among the crew of the station. Not surprisingly, the status of the station could also best be described by dysfunctional.

Although set in space, the technology used is very much based on technology either from the 70s or 70s sci-fi shows. And that is the best part. There are some good jokes in there, but the best part is a mix of nostalgia in recognizing the old gadgets long obsolete, and jokes based upon them.

Unfortunately, the story doesn't quite manage to tie it all together. The story led up to a scene with all the major characters where a climatic ending could be set up. However, it just lets go leaving most of the threads of stories lose. I felt a little bit cheated out of the ending. A good ending could have recovered much, now I think the movie average at best. Mildly entertaining but nothing that I will remember long.
