Product Review

Wow...

by   sunwolf ,   Sep 1, 2000

Pros:  LOTS of special effects, futuristic, stuff blows up

Cons:  Kurt looks like a statue, acts like one, too

Overall Rating: 2/5 stars
 

Author's Review

...I never knew that Kurt Russell could act so completely wooden and unemotionally. I think it took some 25 minutes into the movie before we actually got to hear him SAY anything! Yikes.

Now, please don't get me wrong, I really like Kurt Russell as an actor, and I have seen him carry a few movies just on his acting abilities alone, but this one just plain sucks.

Basically what this movie's about is a big planet full of trash (and trust me the stuff is EVERYWHERE in this flick), tons of stuff blowing up, and Kurt Russell looking grim and bloody. That's the whole shebang in a nutshell. Anyone who tells you different is a liar.

It's not really a particularly boring film, but there's simply not enough here to set it apart from the rest. It's kind of a less-interesting version of 'Universal Soldier', which predates it by a few years and is much a much better version of the same (or similar) theme. And 'Universal Soldier' wasn't what I'd call a five-star film, if you know what I mean.

What really bugged me here was the apparent lack of dialogue for Kurt Russell's character. I figure he said maybe 15 lines IN THE WHOLE MOVIE! Most of the time it's the rest of the characters talking to him and him scowling back at them. What this looks like is someone trying to prove that if you pour enough money into a move and it's special effects you can have a hit film. Well, they just succeeded in proving the opposite.

It won't bore you, but there's no meat on this bone. Solid two.
