We didn't really care about the characters

Rating: 1/10 (9 June 2004)

The summary says it all really. The FX were very well done, and because of this it had some memorable moments. But the only characters I had any sympathy with -- or indeed any emotional investment in -- were the three guys in Scotland (I won't spoil any more). Add to this was the fact that the dialogue was awful, the scenes mostly contrived, and the plot ... well the less said about the plot the better. I don't mind suspending disbelief, but there are limits, which is a shame really as this *could* have been a great film.
If you are bored, watch it. If you can get it cheap in the DVD bargain bin in a couple of year's time (and I assure you it WILL be in the bargain bin), then get it and then use the disc as a coaster.
