So awful it was good...MST3K quality work here

Rating: 5/10 (1 August 2010)

My wife and I rented this film on DVD yesterday and watched it with one of our good friends. Each one of us was expecting something a little different than what we actually saw. I will not say anything specific about the movie so as not to "spoil" it, but I will say that it is a CGI masterpiece with a pathetic script and terrible acting (other than Gemma Arterton as Io) added simply to move it along to the next cool special effect. If anything else, the three of us enjoyed it because it was so easy to tear it apart and mock it for its campy feel. If you actually enjoyed the movie Reign of Fire, this is right up your alley. Otherwise, save your money for something better.
