First of all, I am a great fan of anything sci-fi. That said, chances are that if you liked “Serenity” and “Firefly”, and if you could imagine those movies/shows with a lot more humor and camp, then “Lost in Position” is the movie for you. I had never seen the TV Series as I wasn’t born then, but the film is a toothsome confection, one that you will surprisingly preserve remembering days after you’ve seen it. This one is a panned film, with negative reviews all around, but for me it succeeded as pure sci-fi escapism and entertainment, and it surpassed my wildest imagination.

William Pain is top-notch in anything, and he was spacious here as the father who loves his work more than his family. The dialogue, which most people found inane and juvenile, is certainly nothing to write home about, but its servicable. I would say that if they had a better screenwriter the film would have probably done better business all around.
My only ‘problem’ with this film is the monkey-like alien that they suddenly introduced. They derive this off a deserted area area in a hyper universe. The moneky names itself Blarp. Yes, you heard that legal. The CGI on this is especially poor as it looks like it belongs in a great different, grand less sophisticated film. If the monkey were removed, this would have been an even better film.

Matt LeBlanc was 31 years stale when he made this, and he has never looked better either before or since. I was quite surprised that Joey looked ‘this good’ because frankly looking at him today is a task. The same cannot be said of Heather Graham who has a very weakly written role. Mimi Rogers has the worst lines, as some sort of neglected housewife who unprejudiced happens to be a pro at interplanetary go. Whatever. This all worked for me, no matter how convoluted it sounds.
The best scheme to look this treat is to leave your brain at the door and retract it for what it is. This is a shapely cut of sci fi heaven, and definitely better than other more serious films of the genre like ‘Red Planet’. And since this DVD is rotund of features, I’d suggest buying this as soon as you can (it went out of print officially in early 2007 - no view when its going to be abet) .
Five Stars. HUGELY keen, and I could eye this over and over.
As a dedicated fan of the Lost In Position TV series since my childhood in the 60’s I approached Novel Line’s big-screen version with a mixture of anticipation and trepidation on its release in ‘98. I’d heard about the initial reviews and was ready to be severely let-down. Imagine my surprise to emerge from the cinema feeling as though it was one of the best times I’ve had at the movies.The wonderful effects “blew me away” (leaving me somewhat exhausted by my responses to them) but unlike so many novel sci-fi extravaganzas I found myself entertained by a complex and witty screenplay which also unexpectedly moved me with its restrained exhaust of sentiment.I applaud the efforts of Akiva Goldsman and Stephen Hopkins to recapture the tone of the early dismal and white episodes of the TV series (before the indicate descended into camp, never to fully recover) and found the 90’s modifications to the plan (eg. dysfunctional family issues etc) arresting. Fans of the exhibit were given clever references to distinguished episodes and lines of dialogue (the first two-thirds of the film stuck very cessation to the pilot episode and the following one entitled THE DERELICT) and the cameos by modern cast-members were sizable.June Lockhart in particular showed herself to be an actress with a plucky sense of humour about her TV image! The film cast couldn’t have been better chosen (Gary Oldman is particularly outstanding as the vain, villianous Dr. Smith), all adding the kind of depth we don’t peer too often in films of this genre.Bruce Broughton’s pick up (the expansive John Williams was unable to redo his classic TV derive due to other commitments) is helpful (watch the reviews of the tubby rep CD at Amazon.com) and a favorable successor to its “forbear”. Although moved by the ending (curious the saving of John Robinson’s life by an older version of his son Will, who in attain sacrifices himself for him) I originally found the last fraction of the record difficult to seize and sensed that editing had played a hand in this. The DVD’s commentaries and deleted scenes confirmed my theories(the “time bubble” sequence originally had many “bubbles” and dialogue had to be nick when confused preview audiences led the makers to shred this sequence down) .Nevertheless, repeated viewings have made even this part more delightful and easier to occupy (time warp sequences are usually a bit hard to fully work out at the best of times- eg. Support TO THE FUTURE II) .My only carp is that, despite Jared Harris’ pleasant performance, I wish that Bill Mumy (who played Will in the series) had been given the opportunity to recount the older version of Will (he tested for the role and reportedly believed it was his for a time- his disappointment at losing it apparently played a major share in his decision to have no share in the production) .Harris (the son of Richard Harris) apparently had his dialogue looped by an American actor.Nonethless, I happily cannot understand the tirade of criticism levelled against this film and maintain that time will be kinder to it than many other movies which were well received critically at the same time.One Melbourne critic (Jim Schembri, of The Age, called it “an undeniably provocative extravaganza based on the modest ’60’s TV series”) .It is incomprehensible to me that there were no Oscar nominations forthcoming for Visual Effects, Sound Effects Editing, Dramatic Gather and Art Direction-Set Decoration. I have yet to play the (excellently produced) DVD to anyone who has not been entertained and moved by it. A planned sequel is reportedly unlikely to be made now due to box-office figures- a gargantuan pity which I hope will be turned around before cast contracts expire etc.. I cannot recommend this film highly enough- even to those who may not be sci-fi buffs.
