Pete Winning And The Pirates is a 2015 post apocalypse film. There was a 2013 TV show with the same name. It ran a dozen episodes and there hasn't been anymore. After seeing the movie I can only imagine that the viewers were mostly as disappointed as I was. Everything about the movie sucks and Pete Winning should be called Pete Losing. He's a big fuckin' loser. He doesn't do much of anything right or intelligently. It's supposed to be a comedy but it was lacking on jokes. It's supposed to be a swashbuckler but there's little entertaining in these fights. A lot of the actors are pretty amateurish. Nothing worth seeing here. I can't imagine anyone would buy the DVD is see listed on Amazon. Unless they plan to destroy the copy. That would save someone else seeing it.
Space People is another movie I wouldn't buy. It might have a better concept that the first, fish out of water aliens, but the execution is weak and sloppy. I think it's intentionally made to look cheap and all but it just looks kind of stupid. Once you get to the script and acting the movie takes a big punch. Adam Griswold wrote, directed and starred in the movie. His script writing, acting and directing is all below average. It's got a joke or two but not much was funny. If you haven't ever seen any of the current SF comedies out there you might get more laughs but there's just rehashed humor here, and it isn't that funny. I was hoping to like it more.
