Tonight's (first) Stinker: Space Ranger (2024)

Tonight's (first) Stinker Space Ranger (2024) https://youtu.be/zZOUfeohVMA?si=w5kZcLMb3Y9Y9ncw In the future, a new Earth his beep discovered.... While old Earth has turned to green energy & now looks like a garden of Eden, the new one is a wasteland due to to much industrialization, so people live in a hologram of a prettier world.... So, a former military commando is pulled out of retirement, after the corporation spots an unknown race building a weapon on another planet..... He's paired with an ace pilot & hacker, and a woman who has to put the "S"-word in every sentence... Feels like a cross between a film school senior thesis & a pilot for a TV show, as lots of subplots come up with no attempt at resolving them..... A lot of CGI & stock footage, the lighting is awful, & the acting is wooden.... Up late last night trying to clear out a bunch of short-shorts from my watch later list, so I'm gonna try for another twofer tonight.....
