    • Quotes

      Murdoch: Well just settle down and relax, while I finish telling you the Armstrong story.

      Lucas: OK

      Murdoch: Well His first words were 'Congratulations Mr. Gorsky.'

      Lucas: Right

      Murdoch: Well a lot of theories popped up about what Armstrong meant, like maybe he saw something up here that proved the Russians made it first or that he was some kind of double agent sending a message to Moscow. Finally he got sick of hearing about it so he decides to set the record straight. Turns out when he was a kid, Armstrong lived next door to an older couple named Gorsky. So one day he went over to their yard to get a stray baseball, and he heard a noise. Then he looked in the window, and there were the Garcons going at it on the table. And suddenly Mr. Gorsky stopped and said to his wife, after 30 years of good loving he wanted to try something different. Well Mrs. Gorsky was shocked. How dare him ask her for such a thing. Dream on, she said to him, the day I put that thing in my mouth is the day that little Armstong boy next door walks on the moon.

    A Mediocre Movie
    While not the worst Sci-Fi movie I've ever seen it definitely isn't good. Special effects are bad which is to be expected with a movie of this caliber. The acting is decent for a B-movie which thankfully prevents this film from being totally unwatchable. The plot isn't particularly engaging, just a b-movie rehash of a prisoner escape attempt with a few other movie clichés thrown in. The whole movie reeks of the 80s, which is weird considering it came out in 1997. It's more entertaining than watching paint dry but I wouldn't put it on my list of maybe watch again movies. If you have absolutely nothing else going on and you're bored out of the gourd there are a lot worst things to watch.
