  Abysmal film
  
  This is a truely dreadful film, sickeningly sentimental and amateur in every way. For the totally witless. To be avoided if you value your time at all.

  Possibly one of the best Sc-Fi films ever made
  
  Yes - you read right! This really is a superb piece of film making and Morricone's score ranks as one of his best.

  Predictable & Dull
  
  The only thing I can really say is that this film is two hours of my life I will never have back again.
