Surprisingly incoherent and boring
If you don't like this, we can't be friends.
It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
To call this movie good would be an exaggeration, but it wasn't THAT bad. Amy Acker's character was likable, and I have a fairly high tolerance for William Shatner's acting, so I made it all the way through it. The plot could have been tightened up a lot, and some jokes would have helped. This movie is worth watching if you happen to be bored, and it's free. You should only purchase it (if it's available on DVD, which I honestly don't know) if you're a completionist fan of one of the leads. The special effects were dull at best, and the mechanics overall lacked dazzle, but they really weren't distractingly bad. Mostly. In short, the film met the standard formula for a sci-fi channel Saturday night feature: take a screenplay nobody bothered to edit, add a few actors who sci-fi fans will recognize, film it as quickly as possible, and release it with a minimum amount of post-production attention. This one's a masterpiece compared to Manticore, but not quite as good as, oh, say, Darklight.
I got the fright of my life when I saw that it was directed by Shatner. Someone who has been behind the camera all his life and still manages to turn out this "worse than film school" abomination. Everything about this movie stunk to high heaven and I am amazed that it could possibly have been made. Surely Shatner could have secured budget enough to at least shoot on film stock and not freakin handicam. And the lighting hahahaha I don't know what to say.I guess it gives me hope that if I one day scrawl out a 7 word treatise of a plot about nothing I could have it made and sell it a network. Shatner you have boldly gone out of your freaking mind :) PS the only thing that kept me watching was in the hope of the cast turning around and telling me that it was all a joke.........
This was some of the worst ever to be made for entertainment...It was so bad, that I watched the whole movie on fast forward...I know why watch the movie, if it was so bad, well I spend money renting this "thing", so better get my money's worth, and well I still feel cheated...
I love Bill Shatner. I have seen most anything he's done, and even went to Ssplat attack II to see him. Still, he shouldn't just take any damn movie. I mean, there is that stupid chef show, now this, this horrible, horrible movie. You may think 'how bad can it be?'. Well, I was dehydrated for two days from spitting on the DVD and cursing Bill Shatner's name.
