intermedx An interesting concept that totally missed the mark. While science fiction does test the limits of logic and reason, this film is so badly beyond that it pushes one's tolerance of the genre. In the end just a bad film and a wast of a few hours of your life that would be better spent elsewhere. From bad acting to a poor story line, there is little to redeem this film.The cast, while including some talent, does not reach its potential and is overwhelmed by poor cheesy acting by the lesser known actors. Even the CGI is not of a high enough standard to make up for the poor acting. For a movie made for television I guess it is passable, but I have a much higher standard in this day and age of CGI.
d_iacob209 It's certainly more entertaining and thought out than a lot of the sci-fi flicks that make it into theaters these days. It has a decent storyline and a proper sequence of events that's neither too complicated or confusing. Thus it doesn't require much thought, so it is like a light hearted sci-fi thriller. The acting was good, Jason Priestley does a very good job portraying his character, plus he looks good.The special effects were pretty amateur. You can tell that the helicopters are toys and all the lightening bolts are quite fake. However, that did not get in the way of enjoying the movie. It probably doesn't deserve the 7 I rated it but I wanted to almost neutralize all the terrible comments since there are far worse movies that make it to theaters which many people go see, and this one is actually pretty good. If someone wanted to watch it for the first time I'd probably see it with them again.
Wizard-8 I thought that this movie was going to be junk, considering that it was a low-budget Canadian movie with washed-up actors. Actually, the movie ended up being a lot more entertaining than I thought.To begin with, the acting by all the participants is generally good. Priestley is careful not to act like Superman in his heroic role, and he ends up being a believable protagonist that you hope will succeed. Phillips is actually good in an atypical role as a scientist - I actually didn't recognize him right away when I first saw him! The movie actually builds a decent amount of tension, in part due to some bad guys who seem unstoppable yet believable. I actually wondered if the protagonists would prevail.Is there anything bad about the movie? Well, the computer-generated special effects are not theatrical film quality. They are often quite cheesy. But for what must have been a VERY low budget, they do the job. Also, the ending of the movie raises some unanswered questions, like with the hero's cel phone doing something that I think would be impossible given the circumstances. Still, the movie overall manages to be an entertaining B movie - that is, if you don't pay to see it.
optimusprime12345 I am giving this movie a 6 out of 10 because the acting in the movie was good for a B movie plus there were quite a few veteran actors in this movie that still new how to act. The problem wasn't the acting it was when I saw a preview on the Sci-Fi channel where it was going to be shown this sat. So I went and acquired a copy too watch it so I don't have too get the butchered version from Sci-Fi.The way I see it is that the movie was good the special effects they could of worked on a little more. The story was a little ruff but all in all it was definitely watchable. If you plan too see this wait for the sci-fi showing this sat for it and do not waste your money on buying it.There is one other thing that was a little cheesy that I didn't care for I guess some of the stuff that was going too happen.
