Slightly Disappointed

Rating: 7/10 (17 September 2009)

The movie really does start with a lot of promise, very original story to begin with and it does capture your imagination. There are a few hindrances to total immersion, I found some of the acting slightly wooden in places, camera work is a bit too manic at times and that some of the story didn't explain fully why things were happening the way they were. Even with these faults the film does still has a great atmosphere and the impending disaster is felt throughout and when it does happen, that is where the film goes downhill for me. I felt that it took the easy route to the finale and became a very stereotypical affair with all guns blazing. But to end on a positive note, once I got over the fact that nothing clever was going to happen, I did enjoy the action sequences and special effects.
