Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.

Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Portia Hilton Blistering performances.

Ella-May O'Brien Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

makiprettywoman3 If go on Crackle you can watch this 1980 movie Galaxina. The movie deals with the adventures of the Spaceship Infinity and trying to recover this mysterious crystal the Blue Star. This movie is one of these spoof movies in which they were trying to poke fun at movies like Star Wars and Star Trek. Most of what happens is pretty dumb. You can tell this was a low budget movie.This is one of these movies which may make you want turn of the TV. I'm not going to say this movie was as boring as Gor. This movie is still pretty dumb. The movie starts out and it takes at least 6 minutes just to get through the opening credits in which nothing much happens. There isn't much action until they are told they have to find this Blue Star. For some reason they will have to go through cryogenic sleep for 27 years just to retrieve the blue star. You don't even find this out until part way through the movie.They eventually end up on this Alien Planet and this is when the movie turns into something that could resemble a spaghetti western. This is where it got really strange. They had aliens that eats humans. They even had a biker gang where the people actually worship a Harley Davidson Motorcycle. This movie was a real mess. You wonder who wrote the script for this movie.

breakdownthatfilm-blogspot-com Everything can be done right, even if the resources needed are not always available. I also can understand that not everything works out as planned but this seems like a stretch. There is potential here but there just isn't enough effort to really call it even a movie. It tries its hardest to be a parody but that can't even be performed thoroughly either. So what's the problem? Practically everything, I only found one thing that was KIND OF funny.To get right to the point, the main reason why anyone would want to go see this movie is because it focuses on a character portrayed by a playboy model. That is it. Unless there are hardcore fans of the other unknown actors, there's a good chance there is no other reason. Here's where the main problem is - the writing. William Sachs, who wrote and directed this film, displays that his ability to produce a quality story has a low probability. There is no story here. It is not until a third of the way into the movie will the audience actually here about some kind of an objective; which felt like an eternity.The story (if that's what one would call it) is about a goofy space police crew who travel through space on a real dumb journey. In charge of the crew are Sgt. Thor (Stephen Macht) and Captain Cornelius Butt (Avery Schreiber), probably some of the worst character names ever made. And along with them is their, I guess pilot, Galaxina played by Dorothy Stratten. Weird thing is, the actual name "Galaxina" is a brand. Apparently every police squad is issued one. Hmmm...so doesn't that defeat the purpose of basing this movie off the main character? I thought the name was to represent a specific individual, not a company.Anything else beyond this point is just cheap effects, bad sound engineering, impossible logic, stolen music and a slew of other lame characters. The cheap effects belong to the silly lazer fights between people or space ships. The bad sound engineering belong to things like screeching tires being used for space ships making U-turns. Come on really? There's too much that belongs to impossible logic because there's way too much to go over. Can you believe this film doesn't even have a designated composer? That's because none of the music is original! If you watch this movie, any of the music being played already belongs to some other famous movie. Lastly, the lamest character in this movie is the villain. Just downright insulting. He sounds like a James Earl Jones' understudy that didn't make the cut.Now I know this movie is a sci-fi parody of sorts but nothing works. The small amount of slapstick that is injected does not leave a good impression and the acting isn't memorable either. Just because there's an actor mocking Spock called Mr. Spot, doesn't make it clever. Also having a bunch of space bikers worship a god named "Harlee David Son" is being extremely unoriginal. Even stranger is that there is an actual actor who plays a convincing robot and to be honest, I would have preferred seeing that actor portray Galaxina than Dorothy Stratten, who barely made herself look like a robot at all. This movie should only be seen if you want to waste time.Not only is this movie an insult to the sci-fi genre but it also creates a bad reputation for the parody genre. This is not even enjoyable on the worst level possible. Don't waste your time.

toodvs4u I don't remember when I first saw this movie --I'm sure it was late night HBO as a kid when I was not supposed to be watching. But it is one that just kind of grows on you. I own the DVD but just watched it On Demand through Comcast today and still saw something new.Is it a "B" Movie? Absolutely. And they make no real pretense it's not low budget. However, I think some of their covers were pretty clever. An industrial hallway becomes the main corridor of the ship. 70's furniture is futuristic (this was 1980.) And of course the planet they visit will have an Old West/Biker Movie theme. The Tavern in the town is "Aliens Only" and they only serve humans on the menu. What a menu, part of the fun is in the reading - it is both gross and clever at the same time.Watching this. I like to think Dorothy Stratten could have really done on to do more. While she is not the greatest and it's rather obvious she is a beginner, she showed potential. Avery Schreiber mostly steals the show -- especially the end credits.Dialog is either very clever or very stupid. The spoof commercials are worth a chuckle. To paraphrase one: "Do you have a substance abuse problem? Great! We have locations all over the galaxy to serve you." The majority of the soundtrack is classical music -- which works (and was no doubt cheap). If you have watched any other films of the early 80's that disco crap quickly becomes annoying.We had a lot of fun trying to place all the other shows and films, they shamelessly "borrowed" from. Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica, 70's horror films, even the Batmobile makes an appearance.If nothing else, a drinking game for every time they say the BLUE STAR (A-HA!) is definitely in order.If you want to see serious scifi, this is not your film. If you want to take a bit of a mental break, enjoy the classical music, try to figure out where they stole material from, and see the very lovely Dorothy Stratten before she was murdered. This is a good movie.

dunsuls-1 There are a few reasons to view this film when there is nothing else important to see.First off as a parody of sci-fi and westerns it's so bad it's high camp.Second,some really bad acting that makes you wonder how wonderful character actor Stephen Macht got caught in this as well as veteran funny man Avery Schreiber.Finally,Dorothy Stratten,who was killed in a sensational Hollywood murder the same year,1980 as this 95 minute film was released.She was indeed beautiful and had a screen presence if not really a "good"actress. Back to the film.It's pretty bad BUT it does reference a few good films and the "Star Wars"bar parodies as well as the old "Flash Gordon"music are fun to see and hear.The film"Flesh Gordon"had better effects but this parodies a few films rather than spoofing only one well.The "shootout"parody of "Good the Bad and the Ugly"is also amusing.Its just the bad acting.Tepid recommendation.
