Big names do not a good movie make

Rating: 1/10 (10 June 2007)

I'm glad that this was my periodic freebie rental at my local DVD gallery, but it was still a total waste of my time.
First, the premise of the movie is completely impossible. How could the human race exist for even ten minutes without children? For instance, would do all the sweatshop labor all over the world that keeps things rolling? And don't you think the population would be fairly well freaked out into a total frenzy instead of blithely going about their daily routines, going to dog races, etc?? This is like those dumb sci-fi flicks of the past where Imminent Doom is upon the planet and the populace patiently goes about their normal business while waiting for the fearless leaders to Save The Day. Give me a break! In addition, I was annoyed that the big name actors were so ill-used. Moore and Caine were little more than cameo props. And why did Julianne Moore's character have to be offed so soon? To save $ for all those "exciting" chase scenes? Ugh...I just couldn't swallow any of it and had to turn it off before it ended (just like I have to end this little review). Life is too short...I already wasted my time, and that's why I wrote this: for you!
