Does this movie even deserve a comment?

What a bummer! The only thing it had going for it was Lacey Chabert, and she was squandered from the get-go. FX that weren't thought out, characters that were hard to root for (let alone care about), and a pedestrian plot. A kick in the teeth Hollywood deserved.

I once went to see when i was younger and frankly I couldn't wait to leave the theaters, the movie was stupid and so were the characters. They also didn't have much quality.

When I first read the list of cast members for this film based on the old TV show, I was very impressed by the selection for Dr. Smith. However, about five minutes in, I sadly came to the realization; even the considerable talents of Gary Oldman could not save this hideously convoluted film rendition of that well-known 1960's TV show. As a matter of fact, if you watched the show back in its original form, the only thing that will seem even mildly familiar to you here will be the names of each character. Beyond that, forget trying to relate anything else to the "Lost in Space" you once knew. You expect the pace to be quick, but this goes beyond that - hitting warp speed from the get go and never slowing down. This way too zippy non-stop action leaves little time left for character development or, at times, even coherent dialog. The result is that you not only do not care about the characters but at times you can't even follow what is supposed to be going on. It really made me wonder what the person responsible for this mess was thinking when the movie was tossed together. Apparently their goal was to throw in a little of this and that from just about every popular Sci-Fi extravaganza to hit the screen since "Star Wars". Either that, or they were actually trying to confuse the audience into believing the story may have had some substance. If that was the case, they didn't manage to include enough. Sadly, they also did not manage to capture the light and appealing Sci-Fi quality that originally was "Lost in Space".

If you try to make a movie out of a bad show, then what are you trying to accomplish??? Nothing. And you get nothing out of this high-budget film that doesn't get anywhere.

Oh yeah! Lost in Space rules! I am a huge fan of the TV show, and even though the movie is very different, it's still a lot of fun to watch. Gary Oldman was a good choice for Dr. Smith. But if there's a sequel, I hope they take out that stupid yellow creature. That was the only annoying part of the movie. Overall, it has a good cast, a pretty good story, unbelievable effects, and a ton of cool action. I'd love to see a sequel.

A redo of a classic TV show. Total garbage. Really boring and when you finish watching it you merely wonder why. Heather Graham looks hot as always, though.

Come on. Give some credits here. It is simple YET it is just entertaining one. Fast pacing movie - no brains required - just relax and enjoy. Not STAR WARS or MATRIX, but definately above average. Average is something where you waste your time, but I perssonally think I didn't wasted it watching it 3 times in cinema and 2 times on home video.
