Space Station 76
A comedic drama about a group of people (and several robots) living on a space station in a 1970’s-version of the future. When a new Assistant Captain arrives, she inadvertently ignites tensions among the crew, prompting them to confront their darkest secrets. Barely contained lust, jealousy, and anger all bubble to the surface, becoming just as dangerous as the asteroid that’s heading right for them.

Daringly changes tone, and challenges expectation, without ever missing the beat. The acting and the design are consistently spot-on in their homage to the '70s, but it's smarter and deeper than the gag-fest you might expect.

There's a lot to admire around the edges, but Plotnick's film isn't quite an out-of-this-world experience based on its own merits.

"Space Station 76" stretches every penny, from the curving white walls of the station to the men's wide-collared shirts, but it also demonstrates the kind of talentand determination that no amount of money can buy a filmmaker who doesn't have them.

Even with the melodrama and comedic elements, there's a deep sense of sincerity to performances happening on-screen.

A protracted, scattershot comedy sketch that never quite nails its tone.

The script never quite matches the laser-sighted wit of the visuals.

It never seems to be mocking its characters. It feels for them. Sometimes its heart breaks for them.

It's not a movie that will appeal to everyone's sensibilities, but if you like your comedy clever and subtle with a heaping of great character exploration, this one's for you.

While enthralled with its own retro-futuristic trappings at heart, this is a pitch-black dramedy with a mean-streak.

This may look like a wacky spoof of 1970s sci-fi, but Jack Plotnick's beautifully designed comedy-drama actually has a lot more on its mind.
