Annie Lassiter: Yeah.

Ballard: They still fight and squabble, and try very hard to outdo each other. I guess they're not very different.
Annie Lassiter: And what about men and women?

Woeful, 26 December 2001
Author: shaunpcoutts from Melbourne, Australia.

This really is a very poor US/Australian sci fi film with Carrie Fisher in it. Bog average acting, dodgy script, plot and effects and token shots of the "outback" and a really dull set of bad guys (police and the laughable "Jen Deki") combine to make this a really obnoxious viewing experience. Dont bother unless you are really bored, arent paying for it and have absolutley nothing else to do (that includes scrubbing the grime from in between the tiles in your shower).
