Plustown A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

Cody One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

Karlee The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

bellino-angelo2014 Today I passed an afternoon with a friend and at 17:00 we rented and saw this movie.I found the title a bit weird because I taught ''It's a spoof of 2001: A space Odissey'', but I (and my friend) after the first 5 minutes realized that this is not a spoof, but one of the worst movies ever made in cinema history!Let me tell you that this movie looks like written by a bunch of animals and directed by a 3-month old child! Leslie Nielsen must have been ashamed of starring in this movie and he maybe did it for money, but the movie it's lame! I only saw this movie because I am a fan of Ezio Greggio, an actor known here in Italy for ''Striscia la Notizia'', and he is the only funny actor in the movie. I am really proud of the fact I didn't starred in this movie, because it would have been really a painful experience for me!Advice: DON'T SEE THIS MOVIE! IF YOU FIND IT IN DVD BURN IT! IT'S A TOTAL WAIST OF TIME! INSTEAD OF SEEING THIS MOVIE DO SOMETHING MORE USEFUL LIKE READING A BOOK OR HELPING THE HOMELESS PERSONS!

Wizard-8 When Leslie Nielsen became a hot star overnight after "The Naked Gun", he didn't forget his Canadian origins, taking breaks from starring in big budget American movies to star in Canadian projects, this being one of them. But considering how awful those Canadian projects were, he would have been better off forgetting about loyalty to one's country and just choosing the best projects offered regardless of their country of origin. "2001: A Space Travesty" is not only his worst Canadian film, it's probably the worst movie in his career. There is not one single joke in the movie that makes you laugh, smile, or even smirk a little. It seems to have been written by people who just saw one "spoof" movie in their lives, and not having any sense of what's funny and what's overkill. And it's directed in a manner that has no proper comic timing, and often plays in a confusing manner that takes you several seconds to figure out just what happened on screen. It's no wonder no American distributor picked this up for theatrical release (and why it bombed so badly in its half-hearted Canadian theatrical release.) Only if you are REALLY wanting to see clean-cut Nielsen in an "R" rated movie... though I felt that the content of the movie deserved no more than a PG-13 rating.

JoeytheBrit Oh dear. Poor old Leslie Neilsen must be the only movie star who feels like the rest of us: every day he has to get up for work and do the same thing over and over and over again...This so-called comedy is in the style of Neilsen's Naked Gun flicks, but the humour on display here is far removed from the inspired zaniness of that series of films. Neilsen's OK - he can do this kind of thing with his eyes shut, I imagine - but everything else about this film is bad. The female lead in this just about passes muster, but she only weighs about two stone, and the bad guy used to be Richard Briers' suave neighbour in Ever Decreasing Circles back in the 80s, so its just about impossible to see him as a real baddie.The film itself doesn't really have much to do with 2001 - in fact it looks more like a take on the Men in Black flicks, although films of every genre are referenced throughout. It does get marginally better in the last 20 minutes when the three tenors give a spirited rendition of Village People's In the Navy, but by then only the strongest-willed of viewers will still be around.Bottom line: Everyone involved in this should hang their heads in shame...

Seth Nelson Note that I've called this review "'Airplane' in space - part 2!" is because there has already been an "Airplane!" movie that had taken place in space! (Hey, cool rhyme!) "Airplane 2! The Sequel" was the name.Anyways, I've called it that because Leslie Nielsen is in this movie. I remember him from the "Airplane" movies, and I best know him from all three "Naked Gun" movies - "The Naked Gun: From The Files Of 'Police Squad!'," "The Naked Gun 2 and a half," and "The Naked Gun 33 and a third," all of which are reminiscent to the "Airplane" movies because something funny happens every 10 seconds or so.I guess this must be Mr. Nielsen's trademark or something, because "2001: A Space Travesty" is just as funny as all the other movies mentioned!
