Review of Scorpio One

Scorpio One (1998)
2/10
Rubbish - how did they manage it.

Warning: Spoilers
When this film started out I thought it might be good, was I wrong!

The mistake I made was to keep watching it to see if something worthwhile came up – nope.

The plot is a convoluted load of crap centring around a floppy disc that contains everything you need to know to create cold fusion, wrong - endless words have been written about this illusive subject by great scientists and it doesn't exist, the idea that the secret could be held on a floppy disc is nonsense. The scientific flaws are too many to count – a technician soldering on the wrong side of a printed circuit, batteries that take 3 seconds to recharge, the pilot soldering wires together that wouldn't carry more than 3 amps let alone enough to power the space station etc.

I find it unbelievable that so many people could work on a film and produce such rubbish – I have seen 1950s films that were made on a shoestring that are far better.
