L5: First City in Space (DVD)

Set 100 years in the future, L5: FIRST CITY IN SPACE is a story told in flashback by the first child born in space. The film combines incredible computer-generated imagery, actual footage taken of space expeditions and scientific data to create a compelling vision of how humans may live and travel in our solar system in the next century.

Meant for young kids...

December 27, 2012

Format: DVDVerified Purchase

First, this was a IMAX film, so the transfer to the small screen seems to have hurt it. The special effects and 3-D images don't look at all realistic on a TV screen and many times some of the voices seemed to get sucked away, so sometimes I can't hear what somebody is saying. Add the weak story, the wooden acting, the fact that there is no real sense of danger and you have something that should really be only one star. Even for the 22nd Century some of the technology seems too far out and unexplained. KIDS may enjoy it but even they may not find it as interesting as they may find the extra to the disc the anime short 'Journey To The Planets'. For a film from 1996, this is really pretty bad.
If you want something about living and working in space may I suggest 'Living And Working In Space: The Countdown Has Begun' if you can find it. It has Jaime Escalante, Weird Al Yankovic, Billy Bob Thornton, and Jesse Ventura!

A Major Step Forward for Space Awareness

September 26, 2005

Format: DVDVerified Purchase

The following is from my Xanga site AeroGo, which gives helpful info to students and others interested in going into the aerospace field:

I don't try too hard to turn my kids into space cadets, but when this film came out I took all but the youngest to go see it, way down at Moody Gardens in Galveston.

For those familiar with Gerard O'Neill's concepts for space colonies, much of it will be familiar, but the film is well-scripted and the graphics are great, especially in 3D if you can find it. Apparently a lot of the graphics were from veteran space artist Pat Rawlings, and quite good, but my favorite is a scene of Saturn and rings, from its moon Enceladus, created by Fujitsu. I wonder if there's a poster of that somewhere.

There's a dramatic part of the film where the hero lands on a comet, which in 3-D looks pretty harrowing, with chunks of ice and snow floating all over and hitting everything. Of course, with the results from the recent Deep Impact mission, scientists now think comets may be more like puffballs or "dirty dustballs" or even "brittle sponges" than "dirty snowballs" with large ice chunks, though water and organic molecules were found on Tempel I. Nevertheless, the film was a huge step forward for promoting space awareness; I'm just sad to say there's still nothing else like it.

L5 First city in Space

January 6, 2008

Format: DVDVerified Purchase

The first feature on the disc, 'L5 City in Space' is like Star Trek for second graders. There is danger, but it is not as threatening as something that would destroy the entire colony. In fact, the scariest part is like the end of Apollo 13, when there is a fear that the father may be lost when he doesn't radio back immediately after a crucial part of his mission.
The other feature is a short film about an alien ark exploring our Solar System. Due to our rapid progress in our explorations, the film is somewhat dated. The ship appears to be huge to its crew members, but there is a 'surprise' twist at the end which can be easily guessed by anyone who has ever looked at a drop of pond water under a microscope.

L5-First City in Space

November 5, 2006

Format: DVDVerified Purchase

The producers should have decided to make a sci-fi feature or a documentary about the prospects of living in space. It was entertaining although I was curious about why they needed to send someone out to repair the probe when they already showed they have the robotic technology to build a whole colony? Plus the need for additional water on L5 demonstrates poor management of resources so how is it better than living on Earth. Earth is our home if we take good care of it. There is no reason to have space stations with large numbers of people orbiting the Earth. Best when shown with a digital projector on a large screen.

L5 - First City in Space

August 22, 2005

Format: DVDVerified Purchase

I first saw L5 at the IMAX in 3D. It is set in the late 21st century and is seen through the eyes of a young girl who has always lived in the city in space. She has never been to earth except in a virtual sense. It is interesting in that the scenario is quite possible and shows most of the technologies we might expect to see in a space city. The story centres around the need to find more water and maintain the supply indefinitely. It is like a documentary with a bit of drama.

L-5: The First City in Space

October 24, 2006

Format: DVDVerified Purchase

Sorry to all those overly-judgmental viewers who gave this movie negative marks, I thought this little film was stupendous. In fact, i liked it so much in 3D that I saw it every chance I got--In Wash D.C., at Kennedy Space Center (at least four times there), and at Johnson Space Center. I'm a space junkie who will never get the chance to go out there. L-5 is the next best thing, with an upclose look at Saturn's rings and the inside of a habitable space station. I crawled inside and lived there for the 35 minutes or so of the film. I only wish I could get it in 3D for my home. A future remake?

L5 - First City in Space (IMAX) - Poor

April 16, 2009

Format: DVDVerified Purchase

L5 - First City in Space (IMAX) was a poor film rating only 2 to 3 stars with this reviewer. The graphics, music, acting and basic story were very poor and I felt like I was watching a made for TV movie for children. I am very glad my wife was able to talk me out of seeing this one when I noticed it playing at the IMAX in our mall.
