Synopsis:
A comedic drama about a group of people (and several robots) living on a space station in a 1970’s-version of the future. When a new Assistant Captain arrives, she inadvertently ignites tensions among the crew, prompting them to confront their darkest secrets. Barely contained lust, jealousy, and anger all bubble to the surface, becoming just as dangerous as the asteroid that’s heading right for them.
Quick Thoughts:
“Space Station 76” is a rather well-made film! The “comedy” parts didn’t always come across though, or rather they weren’t really funny. When they did, it was more of a chuckle rather than roaring laughter. However the twisting and intertwining storylines are rather captivating. Yet it’s only kinda a queer film though, with Captain Glenn (Patrick Wilson) being a closeted homosexual who had an affair with his former Assistant Captain, Daniel. There’s a short scene where this becomes obvious, but it’s still brushed aside for the most part. But an entertaining film overall, especially for sci-fi.
