In lampooning naffness without enough laughs, it veers perilously close to actually being naff.

Why isn't martial arts star Scott Adkins a bigger deal?

The Intergalactic Adventures of Max Cloud [is] a tongue-in-cheek misfire that only accomplishes in prolonging [Scott Adkins'] tenure in direct-to-video purgatory.

On the whole, if you're looking to switch off your brain and soak up some Nineties video gaming nostalgia then Max Cloud is certainly worth a watch.

... you'll feel like you've literally been dropped into your favorite side-scroller in [co-writer/director Martin] Owen and co-writer Sally Collett's (Killers Anonymous) Tron-meets-Jumanji sci-fi comedy romp.

Were the actors really getting paid for that kind of quack story? Everything seems forced, actors themselves look bored....I can understand, that they need to earn a livin , too....but I really would not want that one on my vita.....save your money and time.

Given the budget, and some conditions, this film being at the quality it was for sci-fi, as well as awesome acting performances from everyone involved, 'Max Cloud' did fantastic! It couldn't show everything, but for a low-budget video (game) feature film, they got a lot out of it.

Great retro fun! Sally Collett is very funny - and I loved the action sequences as computer games.

Really corny riff on Jumanji or Last Starfighter, but there are a bunch of fun bits, and it's nice to see how lovingly they recreated the old-school side scrolling video games of the 90s.
