Looks like it's shaping up to be what I expected it to be, a low budget, power station corridor crawl just like every other microbudget post Alien ripoff.
This is going to be a hundredweight of prime turkey. Craptalular.

Oh man, I loved that film precisely because it was so bad.
Jagger sounds like a catarrh-afflicted Julian Clary.

Yup. It's terrible.
I had the same cinema experience with "Freejack"
Emilio Estevez, Rene Russo, Anthony Hopkins and........Mick Jagger, whos acting made Jon Voights lear in "Anaconda" look like a performance out of the Royal Shakespeare Company.
On the subject of bad movies, the worst special effect in existance is on a turkey called D.N.A. fast forward to 1h 25m in the movie. They rip off the lander crash from Aliens with a helicopter. You can almost see the guys hand bouncing the plastic model along the poorly made jungle set. It doesn't help that the greenscreen has thick black lines around the main actor.

3 of us saw it at the cinema and even the guy in the ticket booth was "Really? You sure?"
It was just us 3 in the cinema, it was awful awful film.
Peter Weller in some space-opera thing supposedly based on a Phillip K Dick novel but just made no sense.
The final, "ooooo it isn't over yet!!" typical shot these films love to do?
A teddybear in a spaceship turning to camera.
It's like watching a video of your asthmatic, bed ridden relative trying to get up to go to the toilet and ending up wetting themself sobbing silently.
It's painful to watch.

It's appalling. Absoutely appalling. One of those movies you watch and think "Damn, I could do better than that..."
It's on for an hour and a half. When I watched it it seemed like it would never end.
Some people may say "Why waste your time and money?" But the fact remains, I love bad movies.
And Uwe Boll is no John Carpenter.
Oh, and your wrestlers in films theory is pure rubbish: Rowdy Roddy Piper in 'They Live', anyone?
I doubt we're heading into Kubrick territory with this one. I expect reviews to be the typical "3/10 - ** - 40%" area.
If it's anything higher, I'll laugh and still not watch it.
> This film looks super cool and original...
Ahahahhahaaa. No, it looks like Aliens. But a low budget pg-13 version.
