Tom S Pleasantly surprised. Stay with it for fun B Grade Sci-Fi with lots of surprises. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/20/25 Full Review Pea K This is .. Okay! No it's better than Okay - as long as your prepared to forgive the obvious greenscreen effects, cheesy dialogue and treat this as a popcorn movie. The acting is cheesy, but I think it is supposed to be, the plot has some good elements (alien spaceships, borrowed hi-tech, flying cars, double-dealing - nope - make that triple dealing characters). It's fun to pick which bits are greenscreen and which bits are actually built sets, the clothes are a combo of 80's leisure suits and paintball, but it all works in a way that is fun. I'd love to see these guys do a Mega City One film (aka 2000AD comic strip Judge Dredd) as I felt that the big city scenes was the strength of the film - and it struggled a bit on the iron moon and toy vehicles - but overall this was more fun than most overdone hollywood blockbusters. It was kickstarter funded - available to watch free on Tubi - and it's worth twice that ;-) - seriously if you are in the right mood for cheesy sci-fi then this is an okay / good movie option for 1:45 of your time. Enjoy. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/15/25 Full Review Bobby K As a fan of classic SciFi shows, I really loved "Ghost planet". Written and directed by Philip Cook, this super fun SciFi movie utilizes great CGI to create a fantastical future world. Each frame features dazzling graphics and showcases the filmmaker's wild imagination. The set design is brilliant with incredible details. Joe Mays shines as the lead actor I found him to be charming and memorable. The “blade-runner” like car chase and climatic finale were interesting and enjoyable. As a SciFi indie film, "Ghost Planet" exceeded my expectations, and I found it to be a fun and exciting romp. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/14/25 Full Review TRAVIS G I just watched the movie GHOST PLANET. The movie has a lot of strong scenes that I enjoyed watching and which were very comical. The movie is written & directed by Philip J Cook. This is a cool sci-fi movie which is pretty neat and futuristic to watch. The movie has good dialogue and drama and scenes of friendship and camaraderie. It was also shot in a very cool way with many scenes that take you to the future.. The storyline pulls you in many directions as you're watching this movie. I thought all the lead actors all had great onscreen chemistry– they were great together. The sets are great for an indie movie. I look forward to what this director and filmmaker has coming up next! Check this movie out! You’ll remember it! Great themes and good mission and adventure. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/25 Full Review Catherane S This film was fun and imaginative to watch and Philip J Cook did a great job taking us on this journey. This group of siblings, set in a futuristic world, are traveling through space to stake their claim to a far-off planet that will make them wealthy, while navigating difficult and scary obstacles along the way. For a low-budget film the sets and special effects were outstanding. It's hard to point out just one, but the car chase was especially memorable. Naiad, played by Julie Kashmanian, was excellent. She had a sense of purity and honesty that was wonderful to watch, totally believable. I would recommend giving GHOST PLANET a look. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/29/24 Full Review Pat H Ghost Planet manages to build a proper sci-fi environment with some clearly somewhat limited resources and then actually has fun with it. This isn't really the genre where you expect a “yes, that's me” voice over during the cold open, but Ghost Planet manages to keep things suitably light and engaging in a genre full of more ponderous approaches.The almost non-stop vfx are, of course, an understandably mixed bag (this doesn't seem to have been the kind of production where someone could turn on the money hose every time there was a challenge) but at their best they are genuinely impressive and certainly effective enough to immerse the viewer in the story world. Joe Mayes as Max Stone does some fun work here. There are some mild jump scares to keep things popping in the second half when the tone takes a turn for the darker. and the overall ‘team on a mission’ vibe provides an involving and quirky way to spend an evening. The final lines tease the possibilities of more adventures to come, and I'd cheerfully welcome the possibility. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/29/24 Full Review Read all reviews
