(Flash Review)

I've always heard the name Robinson Crusoe so I thought I'd see what his movies are like. It had a classic and low budget Star Trek feel to most of it. I guess that was intentional? Astronaut Crusoe and his co-pilot get pulled into Mars's gravitational pull while avoiding a large asteroid and crash land on Mars. The first third of the movie is like The Martian with Matt Damon as he tries to authentically survive by managing supplies of oxygen, food, etc… Later, while out exploring he comes across an intergalactic space battle with alien spaceships and their human-looking slaves. The battle is super-cheesy with many spaceships footage reused over and over again. He rescues one slave and they both fight for survival as well as from the aliens. Crusoe is super chill (maybe too much) and confident throughout the wild experiences. The sets and effects reeked of 60's flavors and quality. It was an amusing Sci-Fi B-movie and I won't be in a hurry to catch more of Crusoe's adventures.
