Get ready to buckle up your space belts and jettison your seriousness out the airlock, 'Orbiting Oddities' is a gravity-defying trip that's as bizarre as it is delightful. With a tagline that promises space to be a little funnier, it's clear the film stays true to its word, sprinkling stardust on its zany characters like Paul Mew-man, whose deadpan deliveries will have you meowing with laughter. Let's not overlook Jack Gourdnicholson's explosively entertaining performance, which is nothing short of 'Here's Johnny' in zero-G. The real star, though, might just be the Goldfish Prawn, who swims through the cosmos with a wit sharp enough to slice through asteroid belts. Sofia Coppolar Bear, known for her expertly crafted indie scenes, dives tail-first into the comedy cosmos, offering a fresh take on the sci-fi genre teeming with enough comedic quirks to keep the Milky Way in a chuckle. Sure, the plot may occasionally drift into a black hole of silliness, but what else would you expect from a movie where the protagonists have fins and fur? 'Orbiting Oddities' is a playful romp through the stars that earns a solid 7.2 on the giggle-o-meter. So if you're in the mood for a comedic spacewalk with the family, this film's quirky charm is undoubtedly worth the orbit.
