Doctor Who: The Space Pirates
The TARDIS materialises in Earth's future on a space beacon just before it is attacked by pirates. The travellers find themselves trapped in a sealed section of the beacon. It is blown apart and flown to where the pirates will plunder it of the precious mineral argonite. They witness a conflict between the pirates and the Interstellar Space Corps, led by General Hermack and Major Warne. The ISC are convinced that the pirates' mastermind is an innocent yet eccentric space mining pioneer named Milo Clancey, while their true leader is a man named Caven. Caven has a secret base on the planet Ta. He is assisted by Madeleine Issigri, daughter of Clancey's ex-partner Dom, who - unknown to her - is now his captive. When Madeleine discovers Caven's full treachery, she helps to bring him to justice. The time travellers are given a lift back to the TARDIS by Clancey in his rickety old ship, the LIZ 79.

Reviews
To me, this movie is perfection.
It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.
if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
