Review of Space Rage

Space Rage (1985)
6/10
A great spaghetti sci-fi that will exceed your expectations
26 March 2024
In the very first minutes the movie makes it clear for us that Michael Paré is not going to be our hero, as we witness how he executes in cold blood a few people in a bank robbery just for the fun of it. Because of that, he is sent to the desert of Californ... I mean, to prison in planet Centaury 3 to serve his life sentence. Then, for the sake of your typical action movie, there is a mutiny and prisioners escape and the only three wardens in the whole planet must stop them. Of course, being a B-Movie, you would expect cheap settings and a script full of holes, but on the other hand the acting is rather good (specially oscar-nominated Richard Farnsworth who is in this), and the action in the last third made it for me. There is a lot of violence and cool car chases and explosions, but the best for me was to watch an old guy like Richard Farnsworth taking the lead and becoming the action hero of the movie when you less expected it. Seriously, ignore those negative reviews and give this one a chance, you'll have a great time watching this (and it's only 74 minutes long, too)
