A funny movie with a few dark moments for what it is. Weak story line with two of my favorite "b" stars. A lot of the acting in this movie wasn't very good, considering that Lou Diamond Phillips is not in his best moment, but the performances from Ron Perlman, and Kelly Brook were good. Christopher Lambert uses all his classic and wasted tricks. What this movie does have is some solid atmosphere and some very interesting moments for a low budget film. If you like comic books and sci fi in your movies, then this one is good. This may not be The Matrix or Terminator, but it's certainly fun. The film is basically elements of various other comic book movies and it works fine with the accomplished direction from David Barto. I personally think this film lacks originality, borrowing from classic sci fi/ action movies but still enjoyable for sci fi/ action fans. 3/5
