A complete disaster of a movie!

Rating: 1/10 (14 November 2009)

The only reason this movie is worth a watch at all is the awesome special effects. The acting is poor and over-the-top, the storyline is just as over the top and unbelievable with numerous 'last chance', 'last minute' escape scenarios. The film was so long and boring in places that people actually left the cinema before the end! Needless to say the movie was boring enough for me not to want to type it out here. They may have had an okay movie (albeit hugely predictable and over-the-top) had they ended it about 2 hours in *SPOILER* instead of dragging us through the absurd flight which saw them flying a plane (having only a few hours of practise), narrowly missing disaster on more than one occasion and (oh my god how lucky...) landing (narrowly... surprise surprise) just a short trip... in the handy truck that happens to travel past at just the right moment, to their destination. Lets not even go into the ships (Arcs) at the end *END OF SPOILER* Save your money, watch the trailer only.
