After thousands of years of thinking we are alone in the universe we decode a message (in the 60s) telling us we are not alone, and that the universe is a dangerous place and that we are going to be attacked. Luckily, the coded message came from a friendly alien race that fathered and protected us over the years. And now they are giving us the tools to fight back (in the form of power armor). But the delivery service takes a long time, and during those loooong decades waiting for that cargo ship to arrive with their one power suit, they choose a champion of earth to train to wear the suit and defend the earth! Then the ship finally arrives... Only to get shot down by 4 morons who play with the suit and ultimately get one piece each stuck to them. Now they need to work with the government to train these 4 morons with individual pieces attached to them. Will they save the day or will they stand around contemplating life?
Leave your thoughts about Lazer Team.
| National PostChris KnightThe story, co-written and directed by Matt Hullum, is smart, self-aware and not above a little silliness. |
| Fat Guys at the MoviesKevin CarrLazer Team is meant to be a fun science fiction adventure that should appeal to those who grew up watching these kinds of movies as kids. |
| The Young FolksEvan GriffinCulminating those cool ideas with the better visuals effectively makes Lazer Team a really good B movie: the kind of low budget sci-fi matinee flicks lost in time and between tentpole franchises. |
| Village VoiceSherilyn ConnellyBecause it's made by people who understand the importance of a clever script and want their audience to have fun, Lazer Team may just prove to be 2016's most entertaining superhero movie. |
| Sight and SoundAnton Bitela smart(ish) film about dumb people (something to which the spelling of the title cunningly alludes), deconstructing - before ultimately revalidating - the ensemble heroics currently so beloved of the Marvel mainstream. |
| The Film StageJose Solís MayénEffective, low-budget visual effects, bro-ish jokes, and a self-aware love of geekdom that's completely free of cynicism. |
| Blu-ray.comBrian OrndorfIt's a lively picture, but never a memorable one. |
| Movie NationRoger MooreA cast of no-names and a story so clunky it grinds gears every time it changes scenes take nothing from surprisingly effective (cheap) effects and the odd laugh-out-loud one-liner. |
| Killer Movie ReviewsAndrea Chasea cheerfully cheesy homage to great and not-so-great sci-fi movies of days gone by |
| The Film StageJose SolísWhile Lazer Team might not be the most original of sci-fi comedies, it possesses the kind of self awareness — and unabashed love of genre that other films try to pass off as “homage” or “ironic referencing” — that make it quite impossible not to root for it to succeed. |
