what a joke

Rating: 2/10 (20 July 1999)

I have to admit I didn't see this movie when it was released. I was a pretty lazy 15 year old. When my wife finally talked me into renting it I couldn't believe how bad it was. A cliche in space, as I call it, was incredibly mediocre. Bad acting, bad script, borrowed story. Oh but the special effects! Sorry kids, effects a movie don't make. I guess there's a lot of 7th graders (or folks remembering how great they thought this flick was when they were in 7th grade) voting on this so-called movie. I took my kids to see The Phantom Menace...at least Star Wars was better than that amazing waste of money.
