Oh dear, oh dear. Writer-Director!
Which only goes to prove that there are more dumb producers in the movie business than anywhere else!
Anyway, this is not at all badly directed (which I confess is a surprise) and the production values are excellent but, oh, the script! OK, so it's not THAT bad but, really, it's not that good, either. It's derivative, sloppy in places, not best organised and some of the dialogue could have done with a script editor.
It's difficult to envisage that it set itself up to be anything more that a B-movie but you must presume it did.
So, watch it if you're a SF fan with nothing else to do on Tuesday night but just be aware that it doesn't live up to its promise.
The music, however, is excellent!
But for the want of a better script it's a wasted effort.
