an underachiever

Rating: 4/10 (5 January 2003)

I was disappointed. This movie left me thinking one thing at the end. How could an alien civilization travel from anywhere in space and be too dumb to be able to cope with the likes of a baseball bat an a glass of water. Mel Gibson is believeable as the concerned dad and grieving husband, but with such a silly premiss, who cares. There is much better sci-fi out there, old and new.
