Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.

Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

John Larroquette with the help of the Robot details in a rather cursory fashion the history of the television show Lost in Space, its evolution over its three year run, its popularity afterwards, and, of course, the main reason for the special a tie-in with old to the then new Lost in Space film coming out. We are given an inside look to things like a Guy Williams screen test, very, very brief interviews with the Lost in Space cast, a look at a cartoon of the show I had never seen, and finally a major treat with Bill Mumy and Jonathan Harris reprising their roles more than 30 years later. The skit is easily the highlight of this DVD as Harris is dead on again as Dr. Smith with his alliterative put-downs, his cowardly looks, and his general character briefly yet succinctly in tact. Mumy does a decent job doing what he did so many years ago and so much younger. I thoroughly enjoyed this love letter to the show, understand why it was made(to promote the new movie), and look forward to re-watching more Lost in Space for many more years to come. It was not the greatest science fiction show of all-time to be sure. It does not have the philosophic foundation of Star Trek(a much better written show or the depth of character of others either). Its first season is outstanding science fiction, and even though I much prefer that season to what the show became, the other two seasons were always fun - and that is a testament to the general quality of what was being produced, and the relationship between Will Robinson and Dr. Zachary Smith and Robot. Seeing the three of them again rekindled some nice memories of sitting down in front of that old floor console watching their misadventures.

Danger Will Robinson! A wonderful tribute to a great Sci Fi Classic!Jonathan Harris the voice behind many Disney classic reprises his most famous role of "Dr. Smith" in recapping some scenes from this one in a million sci fi classic that was held together by the legendary nickel and dime insults tossed at the robot."You bubble headed boobie!" he would yell as the Family Robinson fumbled and failed at getting home. The doctors greed and cowardice "Oh the pain" always shined through. The late Harris would always be known for his over the top performances in this role that best suited his character.If you loved "Lost in Space" you will love Lost in Space forever and have a few laughs with the old cast of a film that nobody but Harris seemed to take seriously.

Lost in Space Forever is a long overdue tribute to a TV program that rarely gets a fair shake. Let us not forget that LIS was canceled with higher ratings than Star Trek ever got in prime time. This is a fan's tribute to the cast and phenomena that was Lost in Space - papier mache´ caves, saran wrap forcefields, talking dragons and all.While Trek embraced technology and used it to overcome obstacles, the Space Family Robinson was a contemporary family, overcoming threats with family bonds, trust, affection and a pet robot.With Jonathan Harris and Bill Mumy back in costume, and Bob May back in the robot, it is a loving remembrance of the idealized American family that every child wanted, and by association, had via the program.

This is an excellent look back at Irwin Allen's great TV show Lost in Space. This will appeal to those who are already fans of the show, but probably won't appeal to those who never liked LIS in the first place. Fans are rewarded with much trivia, looks back at favorite scenes, behind the scenes activities, and a special treat of a short scene with Will, Dr. Smith, and the Robot made just for this show. What a Hoot!!
