Space Chase

About This Movie

So, 'Space Chase' from 1990. It's this quirky sci-fi flick that dives into the classic trope of an evil dictator snatching a scientist. The pacing has a bit of that slow build, but then it ramps up into some wild practical effects that are honestly a blast. You’ll notice the design of the robots—definitely charming in that retro way. The performances are not Oscar-worthy but have this oddball charm, especially the scientist who embodies that classic mad genius vibe. The atmosphere feels like a mix of camp and serious stakes, which gives it a unique flavor. I don't think it fully hits the mark, but it's got character, you know?
