Audience Member i was very disapointed i wanted to see a movie about warhammer!, change name or i press charges Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member It's terrible. Which is why it's entertaining. I haven't seen a copy of it floating around for quite some time. Maybe YouTube. But essentially it's a low-budget, tongue-in-cheek space comedy. Its puts cheesy one-liners ahead of plot and the story is canned. A group of baddies decide to extort money from the powers that be, or else they'll destroy the known universe. Still, the value of watching it is the same thing as its weaknesses. It fails, and when it does, you'll chuckle. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Despite this film not being awarded a much deserved theatrical release... it has a lot going for it. The concept of Space Marines is in itself truly original and n Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Just....ridiculously rubbish, thanks to terrible acting, a predictable plot and a crazy and rather camp pirate... >_> Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Space Marines -This is an 80`s style over the top piece of nonsense that first of all I stared at in disbelief and then started to laugh at it. A bunch of ridiculous gung ho stereotype US space marines have to try and rescue kidnapped politicians - the politicians and all leader types are all namby-pamby peace loving types who wouldn`t say `boo!` to a goose and seem incapable of making a decision about anything! The cliche`s come think & fast with `Sarge` trying to look after `dumb as a post` recruits, a tough marine seems to take a dislike to a good looking but annoying lady politician (you know they are going to fall for each other), the evil space pirates are led by a long haired moustache twirling, effeminate and madder than a hatter who has stolen enough super explosive stuff to blow up the universe! It actually reminded me of the A team with explosions and people flying through the air shouting "AAAAAAArg!", some people jumped i Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member what a stupid movie...
