Enjoyable, sit down and just watch type of film

Rating: 8/10 (6 September 2002)

At first, I was a bit dodgy about this film. My mates were giving mixed reviews, some said it was great, others said it was shyte!!
My self I think i would choose the first.
This film is a welcome escape from all the other rubbish out there now, for example - Armageddon - could have been a good movie had it been less lovie-dovie!! Why do directors always have to put romance into an action triller??!! It ruins it!
With this there is no love story inside it, in fact that only part that slightly relates to romance is heavily involved with memory flahbacks of death!! Now that is much better, not to sound to morbid or anything.
The fact is, this is a real lads film. If chicks don't like it, then they can walk it, if guys don't like it - then the poofters should hire out City of Angels and stop whinging. Afterall, it is their choice, stop moaning.
If you love suspense, gore and basically quite a warped sense of horror, then you should enjoy this. I not, then get something else.
Scenes involved people smothered against walls, crew killing each other in a sick and twisted ways (thrusting their fist down each others throat to rip their insides out, that kind of stuff) and quite a good looking part where one of the crew decompresses out in space.
Don't expect another type of hollywood movie where their are heroes, this is what films should be like. Simple story - Ship disappears, search and rescue rendevouz, board ship...oh dear, everything goes pear shaped and now everyone is trying to survive, but who are the lucky ones??!!
You will have to find out!
Oh, and another thing!!! Some critics claim parts of this film is snatched from other movies!!
WRONG!!!
They used clips from this!! These guys get paid to slag this movie off, and yet they are slagging the wrong movie by saying it is un-original.
This movie is different from everything else, I am yet to see another like it!!
My Rating? 8/10!!
Get a curry, a few cold lagers and a few mates around. Turn off the lights, surround sound full blast and enjoy the experience!
