Boobirt Stylish but barely mediocre overall

Btexxamar I like Black Panther, but I didn't like this movie.

Seraherrera The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity

Micah Lloyd Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

RetroPizzaTimeCritic The movie about Mike and his robot friends Crow T. Robot and Tom Servo in being forces by evil scientist named Dr. Clayton Forrester who wanna taken rule the world, He force them to watch a Worst movie in Satellite of Love in High earth orbit This time their target 1955 American classic sci-fi film from Universal International called "This Island Earth". Mike and his robot friends wish to get back on earth before Dr. Forrester find out. Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Movie is was totally hilarious movie based on the Hit TV Series to bring worst classic movie to life in the big screen.

joshua kit This is just a two hour episode of the TV show, and that's why it works. It won't make you cry, but it will make you laugh. I enjoyed the TV show and found the movie had everything I enjoyed about it.The movie they watch is the much-maligned, iconic 50s sci-fi B-movie, "This Island Earth". (Which, for what it's worth, is not a terrible movie. It's silly, but compared to many of it's contemporary films, is somewhat watchable.) If you've never seen it, then this is a good way to watch it.Not a whole lot else to say. This movie won't win an Oscar, but it's a fine pastime for a Friday night at home with a few beers.

udragon2010 As always, the guys at MST3K make a bad movie watchable. I giggled and guffawed from the minute it started. The guys are forced to watch "This Island Earth" and riff on its stupidness. The bots are just as nutty as they are in the show and good old Mike Nelson is the glue that keeps the zaniness from getting too much. This is a great jumping on point for those who have not yet been blessed by the goodness that is Mystery Science Theater 3000. People who have complained about this movie riffing on a classic movie should repeat to themselves "its just a movie and I should really just relax." It's great for the kids, family and the dog, but not for grandpa and grandma. Watch this flick and you'll wish for movie sign for the rest of your life.

thesar-2 Growing up (and still watching the re-runs) of MST3k, I had to revisit the one I've only seen once – 'MST3k: The Movie' and I did see it in the theater. I remember then, (1996) thinking how great it was to see one of my favorites on the big screen, and then being disappointed to one of their weakest efforts. (Side note: they continued the downward lack of effort on the DVD – special features include closed captions and – wow – I can have it dubbed in French. That's it?) Sure, there were a few funny one-liners ("Well believe me, Mike, I calculated the odds of this succeeding versus the odds I was doing something incredibly stupid... and I went ahead anyway" and "What's this 'and the rest' crap" referring to Russell 'Gilligan Island's Professor' Johnson) but overall, people need to watch any of the episodes, namely 'Manos: The Hands of Fate' and 'Eegah,' to really see the genius that was MST3k's approx 700 jokes per episode. This is a pretty good introduction to the man & robots vs B-movies series, but it gets a lot better on the smaller screen.(Never thought I would ever write that.)
