Stranded review. Somewhat compelling. Problems detected. No shields for Moon base. What are they mining for? Four people operate a mining operation, on the Moon. There's only one Moon base? The future has no carbon monoxide detectors. The Dr. can't tell the difference between a bite wound and a glass injury. No one cares about being covered in blood or possible infection. Zits! Bruce2 alien monster = dorky guy with a skin condition. Needed a cute little robot(mining robot had no lines). The communicators look a lot like a gadget flashlight I have. Apparently (according to Slater), the escape pod takes too long to prep in an EMERGENCY! No imaginary conversations with Elvis. Nice sets good acting. Fun to watch with friends. 6 out of 10.

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.

Is it possible to give zero or is 1/10 the lowest available? If it's possible, I'd like to change my rating. I watched the movie with my Chinese girlfriend and with Chinese subtitles. I don't speak the language myself but the subtitles made more sense than the movie did. It's a bad imitation of far superior genre movies such as Alien, Species or The Thing and its attempts at building suspense were so predictable that they were more laughable than scary. I've seen plenty of low budget movies that were pretty good but this most certainly wasn't one of them. The closest I can come to finding a single redeeming feature is that it was short.

I am a filmmaker and try to be as objective as possible. Understanding that many films have limitations, I try to see beyond the finances and look for other qualities such as performance, story, direction, and execution.Well, I looked for nearly an hour and found myself, after the first 3 minutes, wishing that a piece of the space shuttle would re-enter the atmosphere, crash through my roof, and hit me in the head.The most exciting moment of this viewing experience was when I finally decided to hit the stop button on my DVD player. The folks that made this fiasco should seriously consider Truckmasters or barber college.
