I checked out this movie because I like Sci-Fi stories and recent years have shown that CGi used alongside a good plot can blow your mind away. I read the synopsis and thought this looked like it had lots of potential. Unfortunately the potential was never reached, I have seen a few Sci-Fi films lately that thoroughly disappointed me and this tops the list. A very weak script combined with actors who need a good director and a director that needs to watch a real movie not the made for tv type that tries to emulate an episode of Dallas or any other 80's soap. Pausing too long on an actors face to get their 'emotions' only works if a) they are told that they should be showing some kind of emotion or b) they are capable of understanding any other emotion apart from dismay.
A poor storyline, a poor script, a poor cast and a poor director. Not one to watch as there are millions of other ways to enduce sleep!
