Pretty, pretty post-modern, that is...

Rating: Null/10 (20 February 2000)

This movie is very pretty. Within the first few minutes, you get a feel of the style the director used as he made this movie. However, this movie suffers from post-modernist issues, mainly the belief that everything has been done before, and that what comes after is a copy or homage to the prior. In this case, this movie can't help but be compared to Alien and Starship Troopers, and in some ways, Jurassic Park. Unfortunately, it feels as if those three movies do a better job of suspense, action and horror than this one does. It's not a bad movie, I'm just not sure it's one worth the full price of admission.
