Estrella oscura Ratings & Reviews
- angry601 de febrero de 2025An old favorite
- franke166 de enero de 2026A classic.
- flavo4313 de diciembre de 2025Dark Star is a perfect example of how imagination and clever writing can overcome even the most limited budget. This low-budget B-movie sci-fi comedy, directed by John Carpenter, leans into its constraints and turns them into strengths through sharp satire, absurd situations, and surprisingly inventive special effects. What could have been a throwaway student film instead becomes a cult classic that pokes fun at space exploration, military bureaucracy, and existential dread. The film’s humor is dry, goofy, and often philosophical, particularly in its memorable exchanges involving a sentient bomb pondering the nature of existence. The practical effects, while obviously handmade, are charming and creative, adding to the film’s offbeat personality rather than detracting from it. Dark Star isn’t polished or grand, but it doesn’t need to be. Its wit, originality, and willingness to embrace silliness make it a genuinely fun and rewarding watch—especially for sci-fi fans who appreciate satire and unconventional storytelling.
- ivthebox9 de diciembre de 2025Quite boring, nothing much happens. They try to create tension with a few tense situations but it's too boring to care and I was looking forward to the end of it.
- Phill Rock27 de noviembre de 2025Can see the makings of a great director. Not the best film but has some good carpenter moments.
- gtate876 de septiembre de 2025Very strange. Enjoyable but very strange.
- Charles Edstrom5 de agosto de 2025Its a campy movie with some good humor. One of those you like to watch knowing it can't match up to anything else, despite how cheesy it can be.
- Russell23 de abril de 2025It's like a bad episode of Red Dwarf
- Lilly26 de marzo de 2025Watched it with a friend she liked it in a ironic way, didn't hate it but its ancient and not in a treasured classic way.
