Awful, 26 August 2000
1/10
Author: Stephan Freeman from London, England

I watched this on a flight to St. Louis, and it's the first ever movie I have had to stop watching. It is awful - I thought Men In White was bad, but this tops everything! What were they thinking? I was trapped for the full length of the movie at 36,000 feet! Never again...
