Great mix of a wonderful plot and awesome special effects!

Rating: 10/10 (23 May 1999)

How many times do you go to a movie nowadays and see a movie that not only has the monster special effects that we so crave, AND spend the entire movie enthralled by the twisting rollercoaster ride of a plot that takes turns into uncharted reaches of sci-fi moviedom. I do not believe I have recently seen a sci-fi (star wars phantom menace included) that is so good. I was not expecting it to be this good, and I recommend it to anyone who likes good movies.
