I didn't HATE the movie, but, I didnt LOVE it either. I think my problem with the movie is I didnt really give a damn about anyone in it, and unlike the spaceship in say, Alien or many other films, the fact that the ship seemed so damn UN-utilitarian bothered me. I couldnt imagine anyone engineering such an entirely Gigeresque spaceship design....
The acting was a bit flat in places, but, I always attributed that to the way the dialog was written, and not the performers themselves..... I mean, there are points where you know the actors had to be thinking, "They expect me to SAY this crap?"
And as shocking as the revelation of the recording of what happened on the ship was, with its carnage and flashing imagery, the climax paled in comparison. Its almost like the movie blew it's load halfway through and spent the rest of the time playing catch up.
But....truth be known....everytime I see the damn thing in the cable listings, I'll give it a watch.....
