Space Station 76 Trailers

A comedic drama about a group of people (and several robots) living on a space station in a 1970’s-version of the future. When a new Assistant Captain arrives, she inadvertently ignites tensions among the crew, prompting them to confront their darkest secrets. Barely contained lust, jealousy, and anger all bubble to the surface, becoming just as dangerous as the asteroid that’s heading right for them.

Can't believe that this film was considered a comedy - I saw NOTHING even to bring a smile to my face. No take that back there were a couple of instances where the robots created the smile. In some ways it was like suburbia translated (complete with furniture) onto a space station. So it came with a 70's view of sex and masturbation which hardly helped the lack of story. Given that it was supposed to be a space station there was little evidence of professionalism and chain of command - they seemed to be aimlessly drifting in space with little concern for what may outside the space station or how to manage it. I think this is the first film I have seen where actors smoke - irrespective of where they may be AND so many of them!! I found this difficult to take be it on the command deck or private quarters. So many people with problems one wonders how they were screened to be crew members on a space station in the first place. DULL - unimaginative and sit-com predictability.

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.4/10

Space Station 76 is a parody of the science fiction film genre that draws much of its dark and subtle humour from its retro-futuristic surroundings and its ability to play with the cultural differences between the 1970s and the present day. The film's plot is focused on the attempts of Jessica (Liv Tyler), a new crew member, and her attempts to fit in with station's terribly dysfunctional crew. Though built on an intriguing premise, but concluding rather abruptly and with little resolution, Space Station 76 promises much, but never fully delivers.

When I decided to view this movie, there were about 6 comment on IMDb, all very positive. After seeing this movie, what I now use when I've got insomnia, I decided to take a better look at those 6 reviews. Pretty much all of them have only registered 1 review and registered in September 2014, the same date when the movie aired in selected theaters, coincidence? No, of course it is not coincidental, more and more people involved with a movie misuse democratic media to promote their stuff. It should be forbidden to let anyone comment on their own product, let the people be the judge of that.Now for the movie, the trailer had 1 funny moment, so funny you might expect the whole movie to be this great. The artwork looked great, nice 70/80's feeling, couldn't be happier. I was as excited as the time "Space Truckers" (better watch that one over this one any day) came out, also a movie tribute to the good old time.I waited months till I could see this movie, but what a letdown. The humor is just not there, you not even can call it dark humor, it's just boring talk, endless boring talk, a story no one gives a damn about, robots that look stupid, you're just glad when the hurting stops and the movie is at it's end.
