An Egg That Doesn't Quite Hatch

Rating: 5/10 (28 April 2018)

The cast is talented, the scenes look good. So what happened? The writer of The Egg gets the story a bit scrambled and the film is at this point the most over-rated Sci-Fi film on IMDB.
If you do not like the theater version, try out the unrated verson with 10 extra minutes on the DVD. This longer version reveals what the cast here truly wanted to do, and did. They take a crisis and make it into a comedy film. Worse yet, they then cut the film to make it look more serious than it was filmed at.
Cut is an ending that comedically compares with Slim Pickens riding his bomb down in Dr. Strangelove. The trouble here is that this film is nowhere near as good as it is rated. Maybe Matt Damon and Kristen Wigg have a lot of fans out there, but serious Sci-Fi fans have a whole lot of issues with this one.
Thw science is just not right. The premise is not much better. The films plays like the shooting budget got slashed after they started it. Funny, but sad considering the talents wasted.
