It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.
Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.
Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
Story: Andreas is a boy who's parents are at least strange. They have to move every now and then, they carry sun glasses, even inside the house. They never seem to involve themselves with the raising of Andreas. A new girlfriend and some boys bring even more questions and doubts for the poor Andreas. Every second of the movie you will question the parents. Are they aliens or not? 90 minutes excitement and may be you will know... Original plot and good acting, especially from the rather unknown young actors. A family movie in the European Disney style, with lots of questions which may get an answer at the end, may be...
A very simple and touching universal story. Wonderful actors. Unique locations and a masterpiece of cinematography. Altogether a small but thrilling, sweet and charming movie. I especially adore the acting of the young boy - you hardly ever see a child actor with such intensity and screen-effectiveness. Another big point for the film is its clever balance between wittyness and sadness, a balance which is well suported by the score and music. An excellent European film for children and family audiences, which will cross borders.
Science Fiction was really a surprise. Not only did the film exceed all my expectations but it also showed that small countries can still deliver children films that can easily compete with their American competitors. Even if they have only 5% of their budget. A strong script that is very original but still has a touch of Signs and a very suspenseful atmosphere that sometimes reminded me of David Lynch. The soundtrack is great: finally the composer of Paul Verhoeven's classic The Fourth Man showed his talent again. Great performances by local stars Koen de Bouw and Wendy Van Dijk. A remake is logical but I still think the original will not see any problems to travel outside of Belgium.Tim.
Finally it's happend a great Belgian movie thats equal to expensive Hollywood productions. SCIENCE FICTION is a children's movie but it looks like a grown up movie, this is Danny Deprez his second movie as a director. The story is about a young boy that frequently has to move from country to country. He only knows that his parents they're job has something to do with micro biology. After eavesdropping on them he is convinced that they are aliens from another planet. Or is this just childlike imagination?
