User Reviews

Somewhat entertaining sci-fi thriller

An archaeologist stumbles right into a local government conspiracy, but step by step discovers a serious danger to our entire civilization.

It was shown on German TV as one long movie, not as a series, which, unfortunately, causes some repetitiveness.

Not a really good movie, but acting, directing, and computer animation were quite good, well above average for a TV series. I enjoyed seeing Daryl Hannah in a difficult role, but all actors were good.

The limiting factor was the story. The beginning was almost as good as that of any high budget Hollywood movie, but then the story turned cheaper, and the movie stayed well below its potential.

My final judgment: a somewhat entertaining sci-fi thriller.
