User Reviews

there is a good movie hidden somewhere here

Since I like action films, sci-fi films and invasion films and I am familiar with the work of Mark Dacascos, I was curious to check out this movie.

I can't say it's a total disappointment. It has it's moments and some of it actually does work. Unfortunately, what might have been a good film, got lost under a pile of amateurism, cheap sets and poor special effects.

On the good side, the acting is not that bad and there are elements you wish where explored more. Plus the action is OK, even though I wish there had been more martial art fights between the main hero and some of the main baddies in stead of just ordinaries lackies.

What bothered me the most was the ending which felt tacked on as if the producers were planning for a sequel. If one ever materializes, I will probably watch it.
