So much average

Fantastic!

Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Poor in all the other aspects. The plot isn't watchable, the actors look lazy, the story runs slowly and have few jokes that aren't that funny. Having a trip around the outer space was good to arrange some funny moments, but the writers and the directors didn't avail this place very well. Also, 99 minutes for a comedy-idiot movie like this is too much. Look others of the same genre: Disaster Movie: 87 minutes Superhero Movie: 75 minutes Meet the Spartans: 86 minutesGolstein could have noticed this, made more quickly jokes and less stupid development.

Marshal "Dick" Dix is a master of getting himself in awkward situations.He is told that the President of the United States of America, Bill Clinton, has been cloned.He is then sent to moon base called Vegan to safe the situation.He is helped by the attractive Cassandra Menage.2001: A Space Travesty (2000) is directed by Allan A. Goldstein.The film parodies 2001: A Space Odyssey, Star Wars and so on.Leslie Nielsen is very funny as Dix.Ophélie Winter is fantastic as Menage.Peter Egan is very good as Dr. Griffin Pratt.Damian Mason does terrific job as Clinton.Ezio Greggio is great as Capt. Valentino DiPasquale.Michel Perron gives a great portrayal of Luciano Pavarotti.Same thing with Teresa Barnwell as Hillary Clinton.Recently we lost this great comedian, Leslie Nielsen.He could make any film slightly bit better.Without him this would be a much worse film.Many people call this a total turkey, but I'm not one of those people.It made me laugh a few times watching Leslie causing a riot in outer space and on Earth.The terrorist hostage situation in the beginning reminds a bit of The Naked Gun.And it's quite hilarious when he makes a mess at the villain's office, destroying his Vegan model and spreads paint all over the place.The Three Tenors at the end were hilarious.Leslie Nielsen, I raise my hat to thee.

I read through a lot of the reviews here about this movie and cannot wonder why everyone hates it. It isn't the best comedy, nor is it the best one with Leslie Nielson in it, but... it is funny, with some good toilet humour, some cheap shots, some downright silly stuff which all adds up with a quite good and funny climax to the movie. Give it a chance, it's worth it! Spoilers!!! the funniest part is with the Bill Clinton doubles at the concert near the end, it's also the silliest, but it's partly what gives the movie it's charm. Actually the movie is well paced also without any boring bits, you certainly won't fall asleep (like with the Hulk) and you won't get a sore behind (like with Fight Club), you will smile, smirk and laugh :)

This isn't meant to be taken seriously; it's a movie you can laugh your head off while you watch. I loved the entire movie, but my favorite scenes have to be the mistakes with Dr. Pratt's wig; the entire "dueling saxophones?" piece where the president and his clone are on-stage, and the scene where Dix tries to sneak into (is it Pratt's?) office and starts playing that piece of classical/can-can music. I also like the little 'in-jokes' during the ending credits and right at the beginning of the movie. A previous reviewer called "2001: A Space Travesty" one of the stupidest and worst comedies ever? I don't know if another reviewer already said this or not, but: 'Describing like that implies that it was meant to be taken seriously.' Hey, the movie's an excuse to be silly. If I could rate any higher than 10, I would. This is one of my favorite movies ever.
