MOVIE
From the start, this mass of celluloid fails with its implausible premise - the earth is free of pollution and crime thanks to the giant dump/penal colony that is the moon. Give us a break, we've heard of sci-fi, but everyone knows exploring the moon is a good million years off. Besides, there's no way your gonna build a solid foundation on green cheese. If you're willing to get over these problems, then you'll encounter even more which is why you're better off turning to Adam and Eve or the Spice Channel. So, anyway, a group of prisoners manage to escape to a garbage dump only to run into a couple garbage men who give performances on par with Emilio Estevez and Charlie Sheen in Men At Work. The only real positive of this Sci-Fi Original is it had some shaking of that wammy fanny. Teri Hatcher's doppelganger and Oscar the Grouch make guest appearances as more unlikable characters.
