Lost in Space
If you mean the '98 one, hell yeah! That metal helmet scene is so cool, Gary Oldman kills it all the way through, and itty bitty me had a huge crush on Penny Robinson.
Same here. Crushed hard on her. <3
This is a perfect example for this thread.
So much of that film officially cannot work:
The pacing is frantic and weird.
It relies on familiarity with the source show while being stand-alone and released too late. (Well, maybe it realizes that "Swiss Family Robinson in space" isn't rocket science.)
Various wild science fiction elements are slammed together, some very late with little foreshadowing.
But - the cast carries it off (particularly Garry Oldman and Lacey Chabert).
I have the hardest time explaining why anyone should watch it, but it's solidly enterainting, and all the bits that shouldn't work still somehow work.
One of the first movies available on DVD that we had. In the old paper and clamp case, not the plastic ones that became synonymous.
I think I always say it young enough and the sci-fi captured me so I always loved it.
Useless fact: the first DVD I ever bought was Antitrust. Another stupid fun movie.
