I can say that movie is very wierd. Why is it wierd because the story is not very clear and sometimes just flat out confuses me. The movie would not be my favorite. If you like this kind of movie watch it otherwise dont bother "my opinion".

Meh, it was okay. I didn't think it was all that great.
Wasn't scary, either, but I don't think it was really supposed to be, hmm.
And sheesh, I don't think 5 minutes went by when she didn't say the name "Sam"

*Spoiler tags* (after review)
Five word review:
Total X-Files ripoff. BOO
Yes, I actually booed this movie at the end. I don't know what was worse about it, the story line, the dialogue, the directing, the special effects, the predictability, or the fact that it was a complete and obvious ripoff of the X-Files.
I predicted every "surprise" scenes before they took place. The special effects were ridiculous, and had the audience laughing at every serious one. Dialogue was stilted stilted stilted. Please. A monkey could write that "I have to find a woman who I am trying to find have you seen this woman that I've been trying to find because I am trying to find a woman." Directing, though I guess it was "artistic" got a little annoying as every scene was hand filmed and therefore very wobbly. Story line, like I said, predictable, and I think I've seen about 4 or 5 XF eps exactly like that... huh... uncreative.
Thank goodness for Gary Sinese, who is always awesome in everything. But really? don't waste $7.50 or an hour and a half to go see it.

(XF parallels)
Ooh... man with dark hair and woman with red hair (mulder and scully??) go on a mission to find out about some children (one is strangly enough named Sam, just as Mulder's sister, the sought object of much of the XF series, Samantha). Well, now it looks like the NSA (or is it FBI?) is the bad guys and trying to keep "the truth" (which is out there) from our hero and heroine. But who else stands in the way? An alien bounty hunter (who also, mysteriously, looks almost exactly like the one from XF) who is cooperating with the government to keep the world safe from alien invasion (and, who, like in XF, can't be killed by a gunshot wound(s)) |
