If the ship had been in atmosphere, I might buy it. But in vacuum? That's not how momentum works!!!
One of the many reasons I liked Babylon 5. They had the little one man 'fighter' ships (can't remember what they were called) behaving exactly as they should do in space. Burn in one direction, cut the engines, spin on your axis and fly sideways or backwards if you like. Unlike certain epics about Wars among the Stars I could mention.
