Impressive piece of crap
12 June 2002
Well, you may ask yourself how it can be impressive and piece of crap in the same time ? The answer is: 95% of the movie is pure crap and 5% is, let's say, impressive (or better: spectacular). First, let me explain "crappy" part: I never seen more stupid script than this one, used for making this "movie". Really, so lame events that you can see here can't be described unless you see it by yourself - first, stupid nonsenses like "human animals" that does not know how to read and then, at the end of the movie, driving combat, supersonic planes and operating nuclear bomb without problem. Then, training for flying (!) in a flight simulator (?!?) without explanation how they manage to get power-supply (?!!) Then, total strange occurrence of snow in one scene (freezing cold and city covered with snow) while in the other scene, everybody wears short sleeves on warm sun. Also, incredible crappy acting (especially of main character who make such incredible stupid faces all the time that is so irritating)... And finally, really annoying and "over the top" usage of slow motions in almost every action scene (what the hell was director Christian thinking ? He is not John Woo or Sam Peckinpah , for God sake!)

Well, the rest is impressive - and that is last 15 minutes of stunning battle - I mean, battle itself is stupid as the rest of the movie (almost lame as airplane battles from ID4 etc.) but FX made here is simply amazing - especially landscapes and final destruction of Dome, explosions etc. are pretty spectacular.

So, because of that last 15 minutes, I will give it 2/10. Only because of that!
