I wrote an entire review on IMDB, but I'll pull a few excerpts from there for here: Like many others, I caught this on MST3K, but you get a whole other reaction to it without Mike and the robots riffing on it. The boys made a wonderful spectacle of the movie, but without them, you can really see how bad this movie is. There are also some scenes edited out (mainly to fit the movie into the MST3K time slot) and while they don't actually add anything of value to the movie, it's interesting to see what happens. Other than watching this movie for the sheer enjoyment of bad movies, there is almost nothing redeeming about it. The acting is terrible, the fight scenes are boring, the music will make you fall asleep, and the plot makes no sense. If you're hoping for awesome affects too, don't waste your time. The only effects worth noting are the blatantly ripped off Battlestar Galactica scenes. I'm guessing someone somehow saw Turkish Star Wars and thought it would work for this movie too. There are a lot of PVC pipes used to create some of the most basic of weapons and a single propane tank rigged into a flame thrower (why would you want that on a starship?). It's certainly not as bad as other bad movies, but it does make you wonder how anyone thought it was a good idea. --- I would also like to point out that the cover art for the DVD case is made by the company who produced the disc, not the original movie company since this has never been released for home viewing before, hence the quirky images and silly quotes.Read full review

This is one of those movies that's so bad it's funny. Space Mutiny takes place on a spaceship colony (which looks more like a factory) where stereotypical villian Kalgon (complete with maniacal laugh) is trying to take it over and land it on a pirate planet. Out to stop him is our brave hero Ryder (who inexplicably wears only a tank top and khakis during laser battles). Pretty dull plot, but what really sells it here is the cheap wardrobe, sets and "special effects." These combined with the B-movie acting, plot holes and ridiculously bad action scenes make it a worthwhile viewing.
Love it very much

The non stop action and riveting dialog keep you transfixed as characters good and evil battle for control of a populated spacecraft. This film deserves more positive recognition and praise. It kicks butt from beginning to end. Plus the surprise ending, or does it? This is a must have for any die-hard sci-fi collector and connoisseur of B grade movies. Five thumbs up and 37 stars *****
