Alicia I love this movie so much

Acensbart Excellent but underrated film

Bea Swanson This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

Donald Seymour This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

matt-mdt An original piece from a promising director with some brilliant, spine-tingling moments and a perfectly matched soundtrack. It has a free form style aka Gummo, following teenagers and their weird and wonderful fantasies. Some scenes jar a little but if you accept them as part of the free-form style and recognise that in totality it's a collection of moments - you can just start to enjoy the experience for what it is: unlike pretty much any other film about teenagers out there. I recommend it if you like your films a bit different from the rest.

freya-53338 A challenging, unexpected meander through teenage eyes. Both hallucinatory and strangely down to earth. Genuinely unique magical viewing with a cast who feel absolutely recognisable in their disengagement with the world around them. Spaceship is a development from Alex Taylors wonderful short film Lilly Goes to Kiss Land.

comingsooner Went to see Alex Taylor's debut feature "Spaceship" in Brixton as part of the festival in early October 2016, and a phenomenal afternoon it turned out to be, indeed. Sadly, had to leave before the Q&A session after the end of the screening. Everybody in the auditorium looked well up for it!

imgreatme Caught this as LFF the other week. It's pretty awful. I think it's meant to be some revelatory insight into teen culture but there's no depth to any of the characters - they're just mouthpieces for the director's pseudo-intellectual, pseudo-philosophical stream of conscience stuff. There's not much of a plot - a girl possibly gets abducted by aliens - but the film doesn't have the guts to pursue that with any real intelligence. The writer/director introduced the film and seemed to think that the film was "really weird" and we should "embrace the strangeness", but I think there's a difference between being cleverly strange like Aronofsky or Korine to create an emotional response, versus whatever this is where the filmmaker seems to think that going on about unicorns and rainbows equates to enough depth to sustain the audiences interest. It doesn't. I will say that it looks very nice, there's a sequence at a party with day-glow neon make-up that looks great - but looking great isn't enough. The actors are interesting and some of them have real presence, it's just a shame they're forced to speak the rubbish dialogue.
