Space Cop (2016)

It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

You can't make a 'so bad it's good' movie on purpose and have it be good. Jay Bauman and Mike Stoklassa said that but I guess they both forgot about it. Space Cop is a comedy that manages to not land 99% of it's jokes. Pure non-medy as Rich Evans would put it. This movie is utterly miserable to watch. An exercise at ironic detachment,too afraid to have even a single moment showcasing genuine vision or ambition or at least effort and passion.With this excrement of a movie,RLM joins the ranks of countless other youtuber movie critics who can criticize other people's genuine attempts at entertainment/art but are too afraid themselfs to make anything other then an overlong&unfunny youtube skit,masquerading as something cinematic. Where did all that money earned from Patreon go? To fund their alcoholism probably. But hey you too can pay 25$ for a Blu-Ray copy of this movie and watch a testament of contempt these losers have towards the audience that allowed them be youtube celebs for a living! STAYFARAWAY/10

Some parts of this are super funny, others mildly amusing, and a few are big misfires, but that's the case with comedy and ultra low budget movies. The camera work, lighting, and sound were very well done and the soundtrack was great but your enjoyment of this is really going to depend on how you put up with Mike's hammy voice. It's a terrible choice and almost ruins the movie. You can get over it after a while and just enjoy the rest, but he really needed to just play it straight because every time he talks, it's a huge distraction and takes you out of what's going on. And this is despite him being my favourite RLM personality. That said, the movie is much better than I was led to believe and pretty fun overall.

I love RLM and was really looking forward to this. This movie was hard to watch, but since I payed $25 for it, I had to watch it. Watching it felt like sitting in a doctor's waiting room for 3 hours. The commentary track was more entertaining than the movie itself. It surprised me a lot that RLM managed to make so many mistakes even though they should've learned from the mistakes of other film makers since they criticize them in Half in a Bag and Best of the Worst like real professionals.The 2 main characters in this film were horrible. They weren't even real characters. I managed to accept Rich Evans' over-the-top Space Cop performance as it seemed so ridiculous that it kind of got funny again. Mike Stoklasa's detective from the past though was just painful to watch as it seemed like a cynical attempt of playing a comic relief character without any mentionable character traits. I guess Mike was aware of the shittiness of his character and felt no need to hide this. I feel bad for the other actors, because they could've turned this movie into something great would they've played the lead roles as well. Or maybe everybody else was acting too well and made especially the RLM gang look bad? I think Jay did a good job even though he seems way to nice to be a villain-ish character and fell short when acting with the real actors.The movie as a whole was entertaining in certain moments, but boring and shameful to watch in many of the others. They often tried to be funny no matter what and sacrificed the credibility of the world they've created. As many lines were improvised there were loads of long tripod shots which made it obvious that they were on a set. More cuts and close ups instead of tripod boredom would've made this much better and less boring to watch (and much more work to edit). A shame that they cut out the ghost of Jack, which was part of the deleted scenes.Nonetheless what they've managed to accomplish is highly impressive to me. The sets, costumes and special effects are dope! I hope on their next film they'll prioritize character building and action scenes a little more so it's not too focused on acting. Also they should make use of green screen technology more often to avoid monotone and lifeless sets.

This film was so dense, every single image had so much going on. There were lots of hidden easter eggs, you didn't notice it...but your brain did.No but seriously, I did find this legitimately funny. As soon as RLM announced that they would be making this (about 12 years ago) I knew it would be gold...and it was! The sets and props looked appropriately cheesy and the classic RLM humour was all there. I really hope Rich wins an Oscar for his performance here. He certainly deserves it. I hope they do a 'Best of the Worst' episode where they watch this movie, that'd be great...oh and another Plinkett review. YOU HACK FRAUDS!I rate this 10 out of 10 Pizza rolls!
