Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Movie
Dr. Clayton Forrester figures he can rule the world if he deadens his subjects' brains by making them endure terrible movies. Exploiting his access to nearby satellite-dwellers Mike Nelson and his robot pals, Crow T. Robot and Tom Servo, Forrester makes them watch "This Island Earth", a cheesy 1950s spaceship film. But when Mike and friends make funny comments throughout the movie and others that follow, Forrester's plan looks increasingly flimsy.

Good story, Not enough for a whole film
Fresh and Exciting
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
So they take an entire already made movie that's not that great by itself and then add a bunch of jokes to it like we all do at home anyway? It's the whole movie they show us so they don't really have to do too much work in adding more original stuff and also the movie is bad so it's not something worth watching anyway unless it is to make fun of which we all end up doing ourselves at home anyway. I'd rather cut it up myself and with my friends than watch and listen to these people trying to do it. The acting is very hammy too.
This is my favorite movie. It's hard to explain to people that this was a movie since every episode that used to play on their show was a movie, but this one has a slightly better graphics for all the scenes on the Satellite of Love. No matter how many times I watch it, I laugh as hard as I did the first time. I can always count on this one to lighten my mood no matter how crappy a day I had. The movie itself is a classic that my father said he used to enjoy back in the day. As with most MST3K movies, it's never really the actual movie itself that you watch it for. If that was the case, you'd miss out on some of the gems that they've put out. If you enjoy these movies, I recommend checking out Rifftrax. It's the same guys doing pretty much the same thing (minus the puppets) and some are in theaters for fans to watch these brilliant minds on the big screen as they do what they do better than anyone else.
This is just a two hour episode of the TV show, and that's why it works. It won't make you cry, but it will make you laugh. I enjoyed the TV show and found the movie had everything I enjoyed about it.The movie they watch is the much-maligned, iconic 50s sci-fi B-movie, "This Island Earth". (Which, for what it's worth, is not a terrible movie. It's silly, but compared to many of it's contemporary films, is somewhat watchable.) If you've never seen it, then this is a good way to watch it.Not a whole lot else to say. This movie won't win an Oscar, but it's a fine pastime for a Friday night at home with a few beers.
Mystery Science Theater 3000, anyone who is a fan of this show is a friend of mine, it's a great show for any movie buff. The reason why the show is so loved is because it does what we always want to do or say during a really bad movie. So naturally the successful show that was created on Comedy Central wanted to do a movie about our favorite sarcastic robots. Was the movie a success? Not so much, but doesn't mean that this movie is bad at all, in fact, it's a great one to watch. My only disappointment? I think was just the fact that this was just like any other episode, there was nothing really too special about it to make it stand out as a movie. Secondly, I've seen funnier episodes than this movie. I'm not dissing the movie, because this is still completely worth the watch.Mike, Tom and Gypsy are startled to find Crow deep in the lower sections of the Satellite of Love, pounding at the hull with various digging instruments. He has convinced himself that he can tunnel back to Earth, he tells them. Checking his digging calculations, Crow discovers that he already knew this was inevitable: Look at that, Breach Hull, All Die. Even had it underlined! They return to the Bridge, as Dr. Forrester announces that he is about to make them watch the 1955 classic sci-fi thriller This Island Earth in an attempt to break their wills. In Mystery Science Theater 3000 tradition, we are in for a good ride as they mock this silly clichéd 50's sci fi film with no mercy.I do love the film that they picked This Island Earth, while in some sense it is a fun little sci fi classic, probably the first movie that I saw before I ever saw it on Mystery Science Theater 3000, it still is really cheesy and fun to make fun of. I just love at the end where the alien is trying to protect our two main characters away from the monster and for some odd reason he just lightly blocks the two people away from the monster as Mike points out "ACTING!", lol! Obviously fans of the show are going to see this movie, it's a little girt to the fans I think in some sense, I wish they had a few more cameos and could've gone a little bigger, but it's all good. For those who don't know the premise of the show, this is a funny movie, the people that I've introduced the show too have mixed reviews, a few loved it a few didn't really like it, so it's one of those movies you'll have to decide for yourself.9/10
