Movie Reviews of Lost in Space (New Line Platinum Series)
Movie Review: AS A BIG SCREEN REMAKE, NOT SO HOT - AS A BIG BUDGET SCI-FI EXTRAVAGANZA - PRETTY GOOD!
Summary: 4 Stars
Hated it in the theaters (We were big fans of the 60s TV series and like most fans of the show, felt the film didn't do the series right.) However, when it came out on video we decided to watch it again on its own merits. Somehow, this time it all seemed to work. (Funny how some films can change when you watch them again with different eyes.)
The Amazon reviewer says it all brilliantly. We second their esteemed opinion. A superior DVD of a not-so-bad-movie. Certainly a fun time waster and if you've never seen the original series, you'll probably enjoy it even that much more. The cast is first rate - Oldman gives a finely shaded performance that manages to pay tribute to the original Dr. Smith (Jonathan Harris) without going too far over the top. And how delightful that they brought in the original voice for the Robot.
Give this one a shot.
Summary of Lost in Space (New Line Platinum Series)
TV's Robinson family takes a galactic wrong turn with state-of-the-art visuals and effects. Starring William Hurt (One True Thing Michael) and Gary Oldman (Air Force One The Fifth Element) as Dr. Smith.Running Time: 130 min.System Requirements:Starring: Gary Oldman William Hurt Matt LeBlanc Mimi Rodgers Heather Graham Lacey Chabert Jack Johnson Director: Stephen Hopkins Produced by M.Koch S.Hopkins A.Goldsman; written by Akiva Goldsman; running time of 130 minutes; Closed Captioned.

Format: DVD MOVIE Genre:?ACTION/ADVENTURE/THRILLERS Rating:?PG-13 UPC:?794043466724Packed with more than 750 dazzling visual effects, this $70 million adventure does more (and less) than give the 1965-68 TV series a state-of-the-art face-lift. Aimed at an audience that wasn't born when the series originally aired, the sci-fi extravaganza doesn't even require familiarity, despite cameo appearances by several of the TV show's original cast members. Instead it's a high-tech hybrid of the original premise with enough sensory overload to qualify as a spectacular big-screen video game, supported by a time-travel premise that's adequately clever but hardly original. It's certainly never boring, and visually it's an occasionally awesome demonstration of special effects technology. But in its attempt to be all things to all demographics, the movie's more of a marketing ploy than a satisfying adventure, thankfully dispensing with the TV show's cheesy camp but otherwise squandering a promising cast in favor of eye-candy and ephemeral storytelling. In keeping with the movie's high-tech appeal, the DVD is a feature-packed marvel, including two audio commentaries, deleted scenes, two featurettes covering special effects and the original TV series (featuring complete biographies and episode guides), the original screenplay, and interactive games. --Jeff Shannon
