Plantiana Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.

AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

johntg-278-875166 All I can say is that within one minute of the movie beginning, the hokeyness began... don't waste your time!A monster from a black hole? Give me a break!!! Feeding on electricity, well... it sort of reminded me of the Id in "The Forbidden Planet" (which was 1000x better and released in the 1950s!!!). I don't know what else to say other than it was terrible, and trying to come up with ten sentences for a review on a movie this bad is just piling more waste of time on a waste of time, so let's see if this is enough.OK, let's see; soldiers shooting bullets at an energy monster? What did they expect to happen?The main protagonist is guy whose hair is worse than that scientist in "Back to the Future", but no where near as funny looking, just dumb looking.The government knows nothing about black holes, so they propose to nuke it? Whose lame idea was it to write that in the script? All in all,everything about the movie was totally ridiculous. I'm sorry if this review doesn't pass muster, but then neither did the movie.

Emile_Verwaaijen I am not going to waste too many words on this simply horrific movie.The only thing that matches the poor acting the inconsistency in the time line and story telling.The Arch which is supposedly torn down by the black hole... can be seen standing in the background near the ending.Additionally.. if they shut down the power... the city lights would've been out. While even at the very end all the lights are still on. Which makes me think... if you know the creature absorbs energy... turn it off straight away! The only thing going for this movie is the alien if self, which doesn't look too bad.Avoid at all costs if you can.

harold-goedhart I generally like SF movies but they need to have some "this could be true" or scientific realism. This movie shows a black hole on earth and a creature that is connected with it? I could not stand it half way and watched the other 50% on fast forward. The story line is so typical that it shows nothing new. This movie is a waste of time and effort, sorry to be so negative. It could have been better without the alien creature and a more scientific approach. I think people that rent / watch this movie are very conscience about if things that are shown are possible and appeal to the SF sense. I like the basic idea that something really bad can happen in a particle accelerator because of "hurting God's feelings" by discovering more than we should or do things we no nothing about and therefor taking risks beyond our comprehension...

wlee-12 There is a scene in this movie where the main character is driving in this van. Most of St.Louis has been destroyed and there is mass hysteria, widespread panic...He calls his ex-wife and daughter and frantically tells them to stay put, he will come and get her. In the next shot we see his van slowly roll up to a stop sign on a quiet suburban street and he STOPS AT THE STOPSIGN!! The city of St. Louis has been almost entirely destroyed and this dude stops at a stop sign on a quiet street while supposedly rushing to save his daughter. That is only one of a whole batch of flaws in directing. Apart from the obvious flaws this movie suffers from some of the worst acting I've ever seen. You kind of wish they would nuke all these people and put a quick end to this quagmire.
