Movies

I don't know where to begin. Tara Reid needs to be stopped before she's put in another movie. Stephen Dorff looks like he got his character's motivation from Val Kilmer in "Top Gun". Slater sleepwalks through this dreck. The direction, editing, sound (do we really need a heavy-metal video in the middle of a gunfight?), costumes (bulletproof vests with muscles on them), and hey, there's no discernible plot either. It amazes me that no one attached to the project stopped and said, "hey guys, this just doesn't make any sense, let's start over". Hopefully Slater's career can rebound from this disaster.Hands down the worst film I've ever seen.

I like this movie. It has a lot of extraneous material to sort through and you can let yourself get bogged down in that. When I sit back and just watch, it is a standard "monster in the dark" movie with some fun twists and some passable acting. Slater and Reid do a good job with their characters. The monster is interesting and the effects are well done. I like the museum setting and I think it fits the creepy feel of the movie.I don't believe this movie is terrible. Its not a Best Picture candidate, but it is a lot of fun to watch.

The minute the forward started, I knew we were in for trouble! The premise is laughable at best. The story line was even worse, if that is possible.The acting was stiff and the actors gave off a sense of inexperience. You expect more from the likes of Slater, Reid and Dorff. Lines were delivered as if from a robot. And I'm sorry, I like Reid but she was VERY unbelievable as an archaeologist. Slater and Dorff picked a lousy film to try and stage their comebacks. The continuity was off through out the entire film. The creatures weren't bad, but they really weren't good either. Bottom line, I want that ninety minutes of my life back. They can keep the money, but give me the time! What a waste.
