Beyond White Space

source: Beyond White Space

I watched this film because it seemed to be a remake/homage to Moby Dick. Well, if Moby Dick is one of the most iconic novels of all time, this film is a washed up mess. B movie sci-fi films are notoriously bad. They either are so low budget at they are silly, or they come from an Aliens rip off. Beyond White Space is bad for altogether different reasons - a total lack of story telling. Lets start with what I did enjoy. The effects are better than I expected, the cast is likeable... that's about it. What is wrong is a total lack of continuity, the ability to build a story, logic of characters or actions or payoff. The main plot (for no one could count the number of extra sub plots floating around this film) is that an ancient space creature needs to be hunted for some reason; and space pirates are in there somewhere, and space cops? After this, I stopped caring very quickly. The film just does not make sense, and what is even worse is that it becomes anti climactic. Aside from the total lack of plot, story telling and logic, it is actually not the worse film I have seen so far in 2019, so there is that going for it. I mean, you have been warned, but at least it isn't a very long film. I did give it a 4, so it's only bad. Go chase that whale!

A lot of money spent here. Not bad acting on a bad script, don't think the direction was very good. Attractive cast that seemed to be loosely based on Mobile Dick theme, with way to many other issues thrown in. But good effects, and not bad acting considering the story line was bouncing off the Walls. This movie needed some to take control, and do a better job of organizing the story line to make it flow better...

For a low budget 'Moby Dick' re-imagined as Sci-Fi movie? this really does give you everything you could ask for. Good acting, story line, character investment & different enough from the book to stand on its own. The special effects were excellent as well, which i was NOT expecting! I really hope to see more from this team....a sequel even :D. Bravo to everyone involved!!

REVIEW - BEYOND WHITE SPACE The earth is suffering food shortages, pollution rising and the population ever increasing how are people going to eat? And what? In the distant future life is discovered in the universe, on comets, on space debris and space fishing vessels go out and catch then. Ok I know it sounds silly but if you can get over this then you are certainly in for a very pleasant surprise with this totally unheard of film. The shots in space are simply excellent, the special effects are literally outstanding and the acting is spot on, I honestly can't understand why this film hasn't had a general cinema release. Ok you do have to dispel belief but that is what science fiction is all about. I thoroughly enjoyed this film from start to finish with the story of space fishing, revenge, family, space pirates and giant edible space spiders. As for the huge Chinese dragon! (No spoilers). Get the drink of your choice, a bag of popcorn and get ready to go space fishing. Rating 8 out of 10

The acting is below average. Nothing makes sense. There are lifeforms in space, mostly edible giant carnivorous crabs you can bait with crystal and repel with fire extinguisher. And ludicrous Chinese dragons that wail like whales slithering where there's no water. There are only three chicks aboard, and they are hot. Two are from the regular crew and are banging with the black dude. Hard. One is the cook, and she's covered with tattoos, has messy hair and... issues. All the nooks of the ship are dirty. The kitchen is a pigsty I'd not even take a dump in. Cuz ya know, they're societal trash, so, they like to live in the dirt and never wash anything. There are pirates in space but the ship has no canons. I understand the reference to the ol'book of lore, but they all fall short. Who needs a brass telescope on a starship ? And a cavalry saber ? That could have been a good film, but meh.

Its a B movie though the FX are very very good (compare to B) i loved it. white "space"? thats new. the past month i was wondering if all UFO sightings point that those ufos are actually "SPACE BUGS"? so this movie did the propaganda to my agenda.

Well written, well acted and the story was ok too. I thought this was worth more than the IMDb rating it received. And I can't believe how much Zulay Henao reminded me of Megan Markle, just saying..

The movie is far from perfect and I certainly didn't expect much from it, but I found it to be quite enjoyable. Yeah, so it's basically Moby Dick in space, on a low budget, with an underdeveloped script and questionable acting, but I didn't go in expecting Lawrence of Arabia ... and compared to some of the sci-fi-dross out there this one is not too bad. I didn't really like the sudden slasher element introduced towards the end - that was weird and underexplained, and didn't fit in at all, but overall I liked the movie.

Why'o why don't they make movies like this anymore? there wasn't a moments' boredom thoughout this movie unlike what can be said for hollywoods' hyped up nonsense like marvels ultron rubbish or whatever it was called.
