is Orca (1977) bad bad or good bad?
Mediocre bad? Not overly cheesy, just tries to hard to be "Jaws" with a whale instead. Only unique thing about it is you kinda root for the whale because it is trying to get revenge of Richard Harris for killing it's mate.

Has anyone watch "The Wandering Earth" the Chinese scifi flick.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wandering_Earth#Plot

It has made over 700 million worldwide at the box office (691 million from China). It's available on Netflix and doesn't looke bad. Anybody see it?
I've seen it, and it is a really good sci fi - plot wise, but be prepared for Asian drama yo.

I felt like there was too much going on for my liking, but it's a very enjoyable Sci-Fi epic.

It's a decent family tale in a bad sci-fi movie.

I had a blast with it, but then I'm an easy lay for well directed disaster movies

its of course preposterous but its designed to be. its basically live action anime.

How's Two Men in Town? There's also a 4K remaster coming from Mr. Klein, this september. Anybody seen that? I think Delon is a very good leading actor.
