Donald Seymour This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
txsoldier45 OK, first I realize it had a limited budget and that it went straight to DVD, but it was horrible. Using garment bags and vacuum hoses for their "hyper sleep chambers" was so junior high school play that it wasn't even funny.Also the camera shots were terrible. Mostly focusing on faces and did a horrible job of that. I realize they didn't have a lot of money for sets but a wide angle shot showing more would have helped it seem not like someone was using their camera phone to video tape it.And I never understood why the captain got so angry at being called "Ma'am".Don't buy, don't rent it, if its on TV for free if you want something on to fall asleep to give it a shot.
jesussaddle Okay, not as horrible as you think if you can handle original 1960s sci fi like outer limits, which live on story development rather than eye candy. I "watched" this as background audio and eventually became engaged enough to pay some attention. One watch through left me some questions, so I am not really sure if it deserves a 3 or a 6. So I'm giving it a 5 because you know some of us need to support the mere fact of an unusual and unpredictable story in a mainstream DVD release.Just watch if you are intrigued by time travel story lines and theories.Acting across the board felt passable, but the patience of the producers deserves credit. Not an easy undertaking with so much happening with visuals relying on a paper thin budget. I'm sure direction and a few actor choices could have improved the film. Music wasn't terrible. Worst choice in the movie for me is the way the radio communication between various space personnel is over-done, making it indecipherable on my low grade DVD box.If you just must consume time travel flicks until you burst, you may explode on this one, or on Lunopolis.
Ralph Stueben Of course, if you expect to see the remake of Alien, if you expect fancy design and computer animation, if you wanted to see the other Prometheus film, you will be disappointed. BUT: This film is great. It is far away from main stream. It deals with the characteristics of "time" very well. It shows how the characters try to escape the logical constrains the time implies on them. This is extremely well done. The setting fits well to a low budget film. Still, it is thrilling to see. The only down side I saw was the movement of the star ships. These were kind of badly animated, inadequately moving in space. If this was not the case, this film can be positioned on the same level as 2001 - Odyssee is space.
anstia Most viewers will be expecting "Prometheus", the "Aliens" prequel. What you need to expect is a film on a extremely lean budget that has nothing to do with aliens.The creators of this film have made excellent use of their tiny budget. Things look a little "70's Dr Who", but it's easy enough to recognise what each prop is meant to represent. Re-use is key, and they really go to town with this concept.The writing is a little uneven, but it carries the film. The androids are well-played, and the other characters are adequately portrayed.Time as a concept, in Hollywood movies, is often either poorly understood or hideously belaboured. Here, it is neither.
