Product: Solar Crisis (Region 2)
Rating: 1.0
A high budget Sci-Fi mess
The first sign that this film is no good is it's directed by "Alan Smithee". "Smithee" is a psudonyum for directors who want to disassociate themselves from a finished picture. Too bad the stars didn't have the same luxery: Peter Boyle, Jack Palance, Charlton Heston, Tim Matherson. The hard-to-follow story deals with evacuation of Earth during a probable supernova of the Sun (I think) but what you really get is an unstable bastardization of "2001" and "Road Warrior". This film may have impressive special FX but the best visuals in the world don't mean a thing if you don't have a halfway decent story to go with it.
