"It's so lame, it's cool"

Rating: 6/10 (27 February 2002)

This film is absolutely goofy. If it were food, it would be "cheese-corn". Just when you think they had omitted a movie cliche, it turns up- usually stolen from every fantasy or sci fi imaginable (star wars, close encounters, among others)-- ultimately by the end they throw in everything but the kitchen sink.
Fortunately, the makers of this film took a tongue in cheek approach and were clever not to take themselves too seriously. They even threw in a few overt references to other films (e.g. 2001 in the virus scene),which I relished.
A rolicking good time, as long as you don't expect 'serious art'. See it and take a load off your brain!
