    Very strange, but lacks a decent narrative.
    It's a very odd film, it has an interesting premise, some great visuals, but ultimately just doesn't really hit the mark. I love the idea behind the film, it's a drug that can only be used once, any further uses will lead to destruction, and of course the curiosity of human nature meant they were always going to push it further. I lost it a bit towards the end, as it went off on a tangent, and I failed to understand Pierce Brosnan's character and purpose, although I did enjoy his performance.

    I did stick with it, as it had some interesting scenes, but it's not a film I'd want to watch for a second time.

    Not terrible, but definitely not good.

    FAQ1

    • What's the after closing credit scene everybody mentions? When Syfy channel shows this, they do the thing where the credits are compressed to a little crawl next to some ads, then it ends with no additional scene.
