Robinson in Space

Starring:Paul Scofield

Studio: Facets
Product Type: DVD

Amazon.com essential video

Lizard-like Draconian Louis Gossett Jr. and his mortal enemy, earthling Dennis Quaid, crash-land on a hostile planet during a brutal space battle. Forced to rely on one another for survival, they overcome their differences and become fast friends. You can almost hear them break into an off-key version of "It's a Small World." German director Wolfgang Petersen, so brutally honest with his film Das Boot, turns warm and cuddly on us with this intergalactic buddy movie. Much of the problem, though, is that the script sets us up for an intriguing encounter, then settles for a simple and sentimental resolution. Noteworthy set design and strong performances, especially by Gossett, push this beyond mere mediocrity. His performance is fascinating, as he must speak in an alien tongue, which he maintains with artistry and consistency. --Rochelle O'Gorman

Description

In this visually stunning sci-fi adventure, two warriors engaged in a savage, futuristic war between Earth and the planet Dracon. Crash-land on a desolate, fiery planet. At first, the human, (Dennis Quaid) and his reptilian, alien opponent (Louis Gossett, JR) are intent on destroying each other, the two stranded pilots gradually realize that the only way either of them will survive is to overcome their undying hatred.

Nostalgia.......2007-06-21

Excellent story line. However, you may be turned off by the old props and sets. Nothing close to what we have today. I'd buy it only if I wanted to take a stroll down memory lane.

Different sci-fi story..........2007-04-04

This film teaches a lesson from the other side of the political isle than I usually sit, but it tells it well. It is vaguely reminiscent of other films from the 1940's but I can't remember a title. It is a "know thy enemy" film, and teaches about culture clash. I'm not one to respect another culture if it demands it, but if it earns it I do. This film is about two warriors that get stranded together on a dangerously hostile world and have to work together to survive. They learn each other's languages, and culture in a way even a die-hard conservative like me cannot argue with. Perhaps everyone can learn something from this. The film is about right and wrong, and it can change one's perspective. In the end, I remember the audience cheering in the theatres.

I loved it.......2007-03-09

What a great movie. good time you have watchign this one.
Its a one of a kind movie.
if your a star wars or star gate fan like my girlfriend, you will truly like this movie. its the only sci-fi movie with ''sad'' part in it. really good movie suited for nearly anyone. watch this one with your girlfriend rather then your beer drinking pals.

A must-see for SF lovers.......2007-01-11

Great touching story of friendship between enemies and in this case, species.
Good lesson to learn an apply.
A classic movie I wanted to own and show to my kids.

Different .......2007-01-08

I have seen this movie many times while growing up. Its definately a different approach to Science Fiction, but not too bad. Basically, you get to see how mortal enemies can work out their differences, and work together. A movie with a message.

Description

H.G. Wells' fantastic account of life on the moon is vividly brought to the screen by special effects master Ray Harryhausen in this amazing sci-fi epic featuring unforgettable extra-terrestrial creatures. The film begins with a team of United Nations astronauts planning an upcoming moon mission. The astronauts are both confused and intrigued by a man (Judd) who claims he, his fiancee and a scientist journeyed to the moon 65 years ago and were attacked by "Selenites," grotesque, human-like ant forms that live in immense crystal caverns. Now it is up to the U.N. team to attempt a lunar landing that could be more horrifying than ever believed possible.

40 year old, ready to watch some old movies from my childhood.......2007-05-15

I saw this movie when I was 7 years old.

I just recently got on a kick to watch some of my old favorite Sci-Fi films.

This movie is great, because it has all the charm of the 50's and 60's sci-fi films, but unlike most....this one has a story worthy of HG Wells or Disney. So you get the best of both worlds.

When you add Ray Harryhousing's stop motion special effects...you have this movie hitting every element of what good classic Sci-Fi should be!

fun adventure.......2007-05-08

I sure found it interesting to see an alternative history of what space travel in the past could have been like. In general, it made for a very fun and interesting movie. The characters were humorous and the special effects were great. For the lover of classic sci-fi and adventure, this one is a must-see.

A bit dated.......2007-03-12

Although there is some merit in this film it cannot be considered a classic sci-fi film- it would take away from the real value of he true sci-fi ones. The plot is about the very first expedition to the Moon around the turn of the 20th century. Some of the scenes are a bit comical- but that is not entirely a bad thing as it lightens the film and makes it more enjoyble for kids to watch. It is a bit dated but one should also consider the time that it was produced.
All in all a good family film that your kids will enjoy.

TERRIFIC AND COOL MOVIE!!!.......2007-03-11

This movie is awesome!!! Not only is it awesome, but the Selenites are cool. :) It has an excellent plot and animation (by Ray Harryhausen) and the scenes are cool. The Selenites are really cool. This is a must-have for all sci-fi fans! Even though it came out in 1964, I still watch it! This is an excellent made movie and I strongly reccomend it! :D

Classic Sci-Fi fun.......2007-01-16

I watched this movie years ago and was pleased when it finally came out on DVD. I'm a huge fan of Ray Harryhausen, the master of stop action filmaking, and this is one of his best. Grab a bowl of popcorn and enjoy the first Earthlings to visit the Moon.

Hot movie.......2006-07-10

Krista Allen is very hot! This is the main story of this movie.

it's really bad! but with good ol' krista allen it's fun. so that equals o.k........2006-07-08

believe it or not i always like Emmanuelle as a character. she was original, likable and always hot - no matter who played her -
my only problem is that with every movie that ever featured her was they never had another character(s) that were around her that were as intersting or offered anything different tham offering themselves to her. (which was probably the point).
but other than that i always watched the movies even though i knew they were bad and tasteless. i still watched and looked foward to them because they were campy, sexy and always kept a sense of humor about themselves.
so when Krista Allen became Emmanuelle. i was beyond excited. i always liked her. i think she is talented and sexy and always seemed to have a sense of humor and never took herself too seriously. i often thought of her as the thinking man's Carmen Electra. (I heard that those two are actually quite close friends, but Carmen will never be as good as Krista.)
so i thought she would make a great Emmanuelle. and i wasn't disappointed in that respect. i think she made a great one. however, that is really the only good thing i can say about the series.
the acting was terrible (But who really pays attention to that anyway in movies like these.) although there were a couple of stories i kinda believed in, for the most part i could not begin to believe. and except for a few sex scenes i found that aspect of it actually boring and at times distracting for the stories (what stories!) it didn't move them along at all.
I think krista did the best she could. i heard she did not like this experince at all and glad when it was over. and at times i could see that (you could not help it, she made it look so ovious at times.) even her sex scenes were not that great except i did like her scenes with the women. and i felt she did like that. i heard she is partial to women anyway, and whenever i see her either in other movies or in real life like interviews and things like that she seems more comfortable around women.
anyway, i do own the series and even though i pretty much hate it. i do like Krista and she was really the best thing about it.
so if you want to add to your emmanuelle collection or just wanna see a really bad sex miniseries or you just wanna see Krista at her Breast. then i highly recommed it for you Krista and tastless soft porn and emmanuelle fans. other wise stay away from this piece of mindless c**p.

A collection to preserve for the future of man-kind.......2004-11-19

"Emmanuelle in Space" is a great collection, witty, imaginative and it stars Krista Allen. That's enough. She is able and capable of saving any movie in the world.

While this collection is not the best science-fiction epic of all times, it is better than one would expect. After all, we are dealing with soft-core. However, this is a serious effort by a group of dedicated people.

Krista Allen is more than beautiful: she's a marvel of Nature, a total goddess. One thing to add: at her side, Pamela Anderson appears like a so-so-looking, prude virgin.

Krista takes her Emmanuelle character seriously and seems to have a lot of fun with it. That's very enjoyable too. She's not a dumb actress exploiting her looks. Her work is remarkable. But mostly, I would say every real, hot-blooded male should buy this collection because it's not only unique, it's exceptional. Forget all negatives, Krista is the thing to see.

By the way, she did appear in one episode of "The X-files" and she was sensational.

Currently, Krista Allen appears as herself in the popular HBO series "Unscripted." As usual, she does a great job.

I should mention her co-star in this collection, Paul Michael Robinson. He is a very good actor and a great conterpart to Krista's character. Both are a joy to watch and there is a lot of good humor in the script.

Go ahead and buy it. This collection is wonderful!

Krista Alley is Wonderful.......2004-03-21

Begin with the alien climate Krista teaches the alien to do sex. She is acting as the love teacher. In this movie many soft porn scene will make you lust and know more about the making love. The various styles on doing sex in this scene will make you understand about the good sex. It's a good movie for the new couple or for the couple who has boring with your current sex live. Try this and I guaranty you will have a new sex live

One hand on the remote........2004-03-13

This is a seriously good movie... if you are into holding your remote with one hand. Know what I am sayin? I mean c'mon , watch movies like Shawshank Redemption or even Citizen Kane for a true movie experience. Watch Emanuelle to get your Palmela Handerson on.

The Best One.......2007-01-20

Fans who are looking for the best Krista Allen flick in the Emmanuelle series (and there is no other reason to buy one) need to buy this one. It is the only one that is ALL Krista ALL the time.

And if you are not a Krista Allen fan yet, then you REALLY need to buy it!

Not Much of a Story.......2002-01-21

This episode pretty much has Hafron and Emmanuelle teleporting to different parts of the world and "doing it". There is the continuing plot from an earlier episode of some group on Earth trying to track them down. That's the main reason for Emmanuelle and Hafron to jump to different parts of the world. Otherwise, this episode is mostly sex scenes.

Queen of Outer Space.......2006-08-07

Emmanuelle gets elected to become the captain of a group of strange, space men and women from a distant galazy, led by Haffron, a cute guy who knows next to nothing about sex. Haffron has a sort of Patrick Swayze looks and must come from some kingdom too poor to buy any underwear. Emmanuelle, ever playful, has had a showdown with her earth boyfriend, Philip, not a bad sort but a jealous fellow who won't let her explore her sense of adventure. With this in mind, she has sex with Haffron as they perform monitored with a hundred wires which allow the rest of the crew to monitor their bodily sensations.

What can Emmanuelle, a lovely girl played by the incomparable Kirsta Allen, teach a bunch of overeducated, brainiac space creatures? Well, first off, none of them have ever had sex since in their nation, to procreate one must simply slough oneself in two, and that's how children are made, therefore there has n ever ben a need for sex. Bowever, Haffron so enjoys the earthly delights of Emmanuelle that he becomes a sex addict sort of, and poses as Emmanuelle's brother as she returns to earth to confront jealous Philip, who, as it happens, is giving his missing fiancee a taste of her own medicine by throwing a wild orgiastic party. She twitches her nose and changes out of Krista Allen's body into another (so that Phil won't recognize her) and attempts to seduce him to test her theory that he's a cheater, while Haffron tries to pick up different [...] at the party. They succeed and the two couples have sex in adjoining rooms. Dumb old Haffron picks up a "professional" who asks him for $200. "What's 'money'?" he asks in his inane royal hiccup. When he drops his pants her eyes widen and she rushes right over. "Never mind, this is a freeby!" she announces.

In space, Emmanuelle accepts the thanks of the space people for treating Haffron so well, but says that even becoming their queen won't satisfy her need for travelling to Egypt so they better let her abdicate. Instead, they accept all her conditions, and allow her to go on her planned barge down the Nile on a swinging singles cruise. Haffron accompanies her, telling her he loves her and to prove it, he says, that even if she changes her body for another female passenger, he will still know it's her, instantly. Farcically he fails to identify her and beds four other women, all of them charming and witty and nubile, but none of them really up to Krista Allen's gold standards.

Badly shot on cheap video stock, but highly recommended nevertheless. FIRST CONTACT's a winner all the way through.

Another Spacey Softcore Flick.......2006-01-19

I'm not sure what everybody is up in arms about. I watched the movie a few hours ago and saw plenty of Kirsta Allen, though, except in the beginning, she was mostly dressed. I think the reason, is the version I watched, which I rented from Café DVD, was unrated. Anyway the other girls were nothing sneeze at and though the sex scenes could have been more sensual there were plenty of them. Overall I thought Emmanuelle in Space - First Contact was an average soft porn flick. Hence the three star rating but only the unrated version.

What are we talking about here people.......2002-12-18

Now if any of you have ever read one of my reviews you know that I take movies at face value. I don't read into them... I don't look to them for hidden meaning or anything like that. That being said why are we trying to find quality in porn. I know this might come as a shock to you all but this is porn... soft-core safe for the teenager in you porn. Nothing more. Saying that I'm disappointed in this movie is like saying that the production value of the hardcore movies is terrible. Why... Why waste your time reviewing this...get what you need out of it (and you all know what I mean) and move on

not so great :(.......2001-05-13

i wasn't happy with this movie...i should have listened to the reviews. there was hardly any krista allen at all. i was expecting something along the lines of the uncut emmanuelle movies ms. allen had done back in 95 and 96. i have all 7 of these unedited movies. each movie is 90 minutes in length and there's a total is 7 movies for a grand total of 10 and a half hours of krista!...

Dissapointing.......2000-10-14

I have waited so long to see this movie and i was very disapointed with it. The only thing good about it was Krista Allen and she was hardly in the movie. The sex sceens werent even that great. There were very dull and boring. Very bad r rated version and im not sure if the unrated is much more. Im glad i didnt spend movie to buy this. If you want to see a good Emmanuelle movie see Emmanuelle 5 the best of all.

Krista No Brando.......2004-02-05

Ms. Allen may have it over Marlon in terms of overall breast size (and that's a photo finish), but otherwise I think the man who brought us "The Godfather" and "One-Eyed Jacks" would be far better suited to the role of the lusty space wanderer having random sex with the bouncers from an undetermined strip club in the midwest. What do you say, folks? Out with Ms. Allen's firm body, and more rear entry sex scenes featuring Stanley Kolswaski himself! How about it? Who's with me? Anybody? What do you think?
Hello?

Not much Krista Allen.......2002-01-21

This video actually focuses mostly on one of the characters that Emmanuelle (Krista Allen) is trying to teach about sex & love. It's still pretty entertaining but if you are mostly interested in Kirsta Allen then you should know that she's not really in much of this episode.
