Funny, Cult Movie

I thought it was funny and moving. The humor ranges from broad (mechanical hand grabbing Tyler's tit) to absurd (robot psychiatrist erupting in warnings about transference) to black (the cryogenic mother). Also, as a child of that era I loved how much nostalgia it evoked, not only for "Space 1999", "Logan's Run", and "Saturn 3" fare but of the 70s in general. Maybe you have to be the right target audience to enjoy it? It's not Spaceballs or even Galaxy Quest, it's its own unique entertaining thing.

It also poked fun at the dozens of disaster movies in the 70s. They probably didn't have the budget to take on the work of having the set fall apart.
It had the standard 70s movie template of the child, the bickering married couple, the lonely single working woman, the loner, etc.
Pointing out the chain smoking that was popular in the 70s. Those smokers were everywhere, bars restaurants, hotels, and even at the gas pumps.
Also Valium was heavily prescribed in the 70s as the cure all for everything.

I never heard of it but will put it on my watch list.
Brought to mind 1990's Spirit of 76, a time travel pic in the same kitchy 70s style, people from 2176 want to go back to 1776 but instead end up in 1976.
