The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Hey! For a film I thought I would totally hate, I didn't totally hate this one! It's too much like an early version of Futurama to be hated, what with the fake ads, crappy space driving, quirky crew, and....etc.What plot there is involves a small crew of galactic police men heading off to some distant planet to obtain the blue star, but to be honest plot has nothing to do with this. What you need to know is that Galaxina is a robot on board and she loves on of the crew, who loves her back. Problem is that Galaxina is like an Action Man down there so they got stuff to work through.Many, many bad jokes end up becoming something that just wears you down until you can't help but like it. Rip offs of Alien, Star Trek and Star Wars, but who cares. I probably liked this one better than Spaceballs to be honest. Reminds me more of the film Prime Time.

Regarding my thoughts on "Galaxina", I can only concur with what my good pal BA_Harrison wrote. That poor, poor Dorothy Stratten! She became a lust object and Playmate of the Year at the tender age of 19, but what did she have to show for it? Two lousy movies and an affair with a sleazy director 20 years older than herself! Only one sole and turbulent year of success, between August 1979 and August 1980, tragically cost her life since she was barbarically murdered by her former husband/manager Paul Snider. This pathetic and otherwise completely forgettable little flick exploits her luscious female curves and cleverly camouflages her limited acting skills, since Stratten stars as a cyborg in a tight golden latex outfit. The film itself is a dire and non-humorous spoof of Sci-Fi milestones such as "Star Trek", "Alien", "2001: A Space Odyssey" and primarily of course "Star Wars". Writer/director William Sachs previously made "The Incredible Melting Man", which was supposed to be dead serious and petrifying but provoked hysterical laughter instead. With "Galaxina" he actually tries to be funny, but fails miserably. The plot is inexistent, the dialogs are dull and the gags are embarrassingly inept (and badly timed atop). Avery Schreiber does what he can to provide the film with a light-headed and cheerful atmosphere, but the script is just hopeless. "Galaxina" got released around the same time as Stratten's murder, and undoubtedly would have been long forgotten if she hadn't passed away. Imagine her poor parents' grief!

I saw this film on a pack of 50 films of alien invasion movies. This one did not really fit the bill, but a lot of them do not. This one at least has aliens in it, one of them did not even have that. This one seemed to be a spoof of the "Airplane variety, but while there were a couple of funny moments most of the comedy just did not work thanks to poor delivery. This is not even the casts fault, it was just poor jokes, bad timing and bad pacing.The story in this one focuses on the spaceship Infinity, basically a space police cruiser. The story seems off too, as if this was supposed to be the pilot of a television show or something in the way it played out. I figure this cannot be the case as there is a good deal of language and a topless lady. The police of this vessel are sent off to a faraway place to retrieve a stone with untold power. The place seems to have an old west feel, then they have to tackle a random biker gang and this film just does not feel like a true motion picture.The cast is not bad. I thought the captain of the ship did a relatively good job as did everyone. The jokes just did not work for the most part. Some of them did, which is why I gave this film a four, but at times jokes went on way to long. As did some scenes as the whole dude on a row machine went on forever and there was really no joke. The female is cute which aside from the occasional chuckle is about the only thing worth watching in this one.This film looks okay, the cast is okay, but for the most part none of the jokes are okay. To many swings and misses here to count. Most of the jokes were not funny or went on to long as did many of the scenes which pretty much doomed this wannabe spoof of space films. It is rather easy to watch mainly because even though for the most part it is not funny, it still was over quick.

The major attraction of this film is Dorothy Stratten. The famous murdered Playmate appears as sexy robot Galaxina (dressed throughout in a skin tight space suit) who serves aboard a galactic police ship with a small crew of incompetents and burnouts. To be honest, without Stratten, without the tragedy of her death at age 20 just as her career was gaining momentum, there would be little point in wasting 90 minutes with this misbegotten crew.The crew are introduced in a series of clumsy comic vignettes pitched at about the level of the old Hudson Brothers TV show. After about a half hour assorted bungling about, they get a new mission: find the Blue Star (uhh-ahh!), with pretty Galaxina leading the hunt on a planet filled with degenerates and other comic relief. Abysmally crude as sci-fi, weakly written and obvious as comedy and a poor action vehicle, this film nevertheless has developed a cult appeal beyond the sum of its parts. Recommended as a potential guilty pleasure.
