It serves me right for being drawn into watching something, purely on the cast list, when I saw that both John Hannah and Warren Brown were in it, I thought it's bound to be good, two excellent actors would never sign up to something bad, right? Wrong!!
It's a very ambitious film, with some nice ideas, the trouble is, that within minutes the obvious limitations are evident, and off putting. The budget clearly wasn't big enough, and at times it looks and feels rather amateur. The direction is the worst aspect though, it is so clunky, it feels dated, like a low budget sci first flick from the 90's.
Warren Brown's accent, he appears to be South African, British and Australian, it's quite impressive that he covers three continents in ninety minutes, I'm such a fan of his, but he's not great here. Hannah is the only decent thing, so a few points for him, and one for imagi ation. 3/10
