User Reviews

This is another Sci-Fi Channel produced crock-buster turd.

First of all, what's up with IMDb's "star number rating" system? When I rated and wrote the review for this movie, the system reported 8 votes with an average rating of 7.9 stars. At the time there were six reviews with star ratings of 2, 1, 6, nil, 1, and 3; using actual math, something of which the makers of this movie have no grasp, and using the most generous numbers, the average rating should be about 5.4 stars.

Regardless of IMDb's rating system, this movie is yet another Sci-Fi Channel stinker. I will agree with an earlier reviewer that the first 30 minutes of the movie seemed promising, though it contained some silliness. In the end, the only redeeming quality of this movie is that the CGI FX seem above average for most SyFy movies. The plot is weaker than most, the dialogue is weak, and the science was laughable. Also usual for a SyFy flick, many of the characters do not behave like actual humans would. Ultimately, the movie is actually painful to watch. If a movie this bad can actually be produced, then how bad are the rejected scripts?

Once again, the only fun way to watch this movie would be to create a drinking game around it. When a character says something lame or predictable, have a drink. When scene is so bad it makes you cry, down your entire drink, and so on. And never pause the movie while you refill your glass.
