Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation

Ava-Grace Willis Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Anoushka Slater While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Michael Ledo Not as sexy as "Species". In fact I really didn't find the hairless human hybrid, even when naked, sexy at all. A couple splices genes and creates a new species of globs they call Fred and Ginger. The globs are created to produce proteins etc. to enhance animal livestock. The inventive couple discovers they could splice human DNA and create a new species in order to cure human genetic diseases. The corporation forbids them from such an experiment so they go underground to do it. The woman, Elsa (Sarah Polly, slightly mentally unstable) uses her own DNA to create a creature which in the interest of time develops very rapidly. The infant looks like something out of Lynch's "Eraserhead". Eventually they have to move the human hybrid to a farm where it is cared for by Elsa and her boyfriend Clive (Adrian Brody).The movie is intellectually interesting, but at the same time has poor characters. I thought I was going to adore this movie from reading the box, but alas, I did not as the stupidity of the characters got in the way.The F-bomb is dropped a few times. Human hybrid nudity and sex including one rape.Worth a view, if you keep your expectations low.

jwilshu Look, I never ever write reviews of movies and I won't here, however I have just finished watching 'Splice' and am compelled to to plead with you, the movie-going public to take heed of the following dire warning. Watching this movie will cause you to severely question your judgment, that of your friends and/or family, of the movie industry in general, the movie theaters that ran it and the DVD company that pressed it. Furthermore, upon enduring this complete train wreck a highly trained psychiatrist will absolutely be required to avert suicidal and/or homicidal tendencies and more dire, the Baker Act may have to be enforced.I have to admit that I was leery of "Splice" from the start as 1.) I had never heard of it, having been around awhile and watch plenty of movies and 2.) A friend of mine said that he had a DVD from a friend of his, given to him to, "Watch and then tell me what you think". Hmm. So we dutifully watched, painfully endured and WOW are we sorry we did, for now my friend has go go back to his friend and say what, "You just played the joke of the century on me?!" Throughout the entire movie I kept asking my friend the following, "Your friend is toying with you, right? This is a joke, right?! What did you do to incur this kind of wrath?!!" The entire enterprise is a complete disaster of the utmost proportions from start to finish and a rating of 0 would be far more appropriate. With just deplorable directing, absolutely thoughtless writing, God awful acting, nonexistent plot development, ridiculous pacing and the most offensively tasteless movie scene I have ever had the displeasure to witness, this bomb is truly of the anti-matter variety. As such, Vincenzo Natali and Antoinette Terry Bryant should be shamed into irrelevance, Adrien Brody and Sarah Polley should consider their Equity cards revoked for life and Michele Conroy should willingly relinquish her 2 Canadian editing awards as she face planted here by not splicing 'Splice' in its entirety into the void.No spoilers here as the true spoiler was the movie itself. Other than to say that it is by far and above the most absurd waste of time and money that I have ever seen AND an utter disservice to celluloid and digital, to engage in dissecting it in any way would only cause me to indulge in the second biggest waste of time of all time. Therefore, I will attempt to move forward with the solace that I have just witnessed the nadir of film making such that nothing, NOTHING in the whole of life itself can be as shockingly deplorable as this total piece of garbage. Do yourself the biggest of favors and avoid 'Splice' at all costs. Now where is my in-network Psychiatry directory...

andrew-herbst Some people hate this movie for reasons I do not understand because I think it is great science fiction. It's mad scientist sci-fi if you like that (and I do), but the scientists aren't mad, just ambitious and very talented. The acting is superb, especially the interactions between Sarah Polly & Adrien Brody who are sometimes acting as a perfectly synchronized team and other times are completely aghast with one another. Delphine Cheneac (and Abigail Chu as the younger version) play their unusual character perfectly. David Hewlett plays a convincing ambitious bureaucrat, and Brandon McGibbon is very convincing as the cooperative, but worried, junior colleague.It's a movie that starts fast and maintains a high pace of plot development throughout. You won't be bored.

ninjathesecond Okay, i watched it all, in stops and starts, Nowadays I'm too busy to sit down and watch a whole movie so i catch a little during my lunch break, then a little more in the evening, in the end it takes about three days for me to watch an entire movie, kids pulling my hair, telling me to turn it off so they can watch turtles, korra etc But i really did enjoy this and would put it on your must see list.Usually i write negative reviews because Hollywood churn out so much crap, but this is a movie we all liked I know it says in the title description it is a horror but not really it may be very mildly scary in a few places but it's more of a jurassic park scare.All in all a good tale, well told and acted, worth the price.Thanks for listening.
