SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie

Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Seraherrera The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity

nkrisfalusy I saw this movie and saved it to VHS as part of my SCI FI collection and found it to be quite entertaining and fun just as a pure escapism movie. Sure the special effects were not of Star War's quality or the caliber of a WAR OF THE WORLD'S but it told a story and kept my interest the whole way thru. This one is not shown on TV as far as I know but I think it they were to show it again people would watch it and people Would like it -I rate it a C+ and hope someday I can get a better copy of it for my collection...Nicholas

gooffeefree I really wanted to see this thin become a series when I saw the pilot. A lot of people tanked it, as you can see, but that doesn't mean it couldn't have been great. I've seen many a bad pilot that spawned long lived and enjoyable shows. The plot was great. Attempts to produce a "fountain of youth" medication succeed, but trigger a recessive gene present in a large amount of the population which causes them to sort of devolve to the stage of Cro-Magnon man. I really enjoyed the premise and some of the characters. Some of the details were hard to swallow, like the level of tech available to folks in the cities, but none of that is too terrible. I really enjoyed it. I'm a sci-fi fanatic and there are some things that just appeal to me as far as story elements and plots go. I'm willing to overlook some of the less than mediocre acting on the part of certain characters and lower production values if it has a story line that I can really get into. If you keep in mind that it's meant to be a series for a pilot and not expect feature film quality acting and cinematography, and are a fan of real sci-fi, you will definitely get into this.

pchic From a diehard sci-fi fan, this movie is right on the mark!!! Whoever dislikes this original, well acted, funny, semi-scarry movie should limit their movie watching to "Barney" or "Ernest Goes To Camp" Or, for a REALLLLLY SCARRY movie, watch the 1950's version of "Scrooge"!!!!!!!!!!

bbrasher1 On second thought, that would be cruel. It's a big nothing of a movie with no redeeming qualities whatsoever. Violent mutants, brought about by the side effects of some heart medication, threaten the existence of the title city and instead succeed in torturing anyone who sits through this sorry excuse for a made-for-tv movie. So lame, it actually hurts. The only advantage for me was that I caught it on tv rather than being suckered into throwing away money to rent it at Blockbusters, so consider yourself warned.Rating: NO STARS out of *****
