A bottom of the barrel film

Rating: Null/10 (8 January 2004)

This film is bad from the moment it starts and gets worse as it goes on. It is as full of cliches, platitudes and corn as you can get and about as scary as a bowl of cornflakes. Gibson sleep walks through his part and the rest of the cast mug their way through it half asleep. As for the aliens, they come and they go, mainly go.
Perhaps someone will explain why creatures that have supposedly travelled through space and at light speed cannot get through a wooden door that Gibson has jammed up. Or why the visitors are so well organised and technically competent that they come to a planet filled with water which they apparently can't cope with.
It's all fairly laughable and it makes you feel you could immediately make a much better movie. In fact it could be a real inspiration to an aspiring film maker who seeing this load of old garbage can only be encouraged. File this one under "crap."
