I enjoyed Space Lightning for its slightly off-kilter humor and performances.
The film follows a team onboard the Starship Intellectus including May Starshine, intergalactic influencer and intern aboard the Starship, the captain, and several others. May is in a crisis because she needs to come up with a song for her live streaming concert tonight. On a routing mission, she's invited to go into space to capture asteroids and she becomes lost in space.
This is a fun and quirky short film that takes place in outer space. Good characters, especially May Starshine (Kay Sibal), a musician and social media influencer. The ship's captain, played by Michael Bauer, is a bit of a narcissistic goofball, but he adds comic relief. Bauer is also the writer, director and producer. His comedic performance is spot on.
The film's message is about communication and responsibility.
I give Space Lightning 3.5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 8 to 12, plus adults. By Julie S., KIDS FIRST!

May Starshine, intergalactic influencer and intern aboard the Starship Intellectus, needs to come up with a song for her live stream concert tonight, but on a routine mission she gets lost in outer space! Can the crew save her in time, or will she get sucked into a galactic black hole? Combining the excitement of a Star Trek space adventure with the whimsy of a cartoon-y kids' world, Space Lightning delivers an important message about responsible social media usage in today's ever-changing landscape, as the crew learns the value of friendship, teamwork, and using one's influence for positive change.
