To me, this movie is perfection.

Nice effects though.

As Good As It Gets

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

I am normally supportive of Independent films, whether award winning or otherwise, but this film made me re-assess my loyalties. I appreciate low budgets can have detrimental affects to a film's production - whatever. This film is tedious! In no way does this film resemble 2001:Space Oddessy - or Red Planet for that matter. The closest experience to watching this film I could draw any similarities to, would be watching grass growing. The acting wasn't terrible (it wasn't good though!) and - yes, the special effects weren't really too good. The camera-work did at times go over the score a little. What really let this film down was the script and storyline. I'm sure it can't be easy to write a film, but whatever you could come up with could not be any worse than the 80 mins of drivel I was subjected to. What made the script-writer think anyone would want to watch this and actually be entertained by it? God only knows!

Fundamentally a boring film. The idea could have made a good film, but this isn't it. It seems cheaply made, with little characterisation or acting abilities. To simulate an aline landscap they use a filter to give everything a strange colour. Very unimpressive. They walk for practically the entire film, and tat is as exciting as it gets

This is to the reviewer who mentioned that it was low budget and made on credits cards, so please give it its due. Sorry, that doesn't wash. I've seen other movies made on shoestring budgets that managed to be good despite their low budgets. And since most people won't know it was made on a shoestring budget, they only have the finished product to judge, and that seems to be lacking. Heck, Robt. Rodriguez made EL MARIACHI for $7000 (not including the soundtrack that now exists on the video; that was cleaned up by Columbia Pictures when they bought the rights, and spent $100,000 doing it) and look what he did; sometimes it's edited a bit too fast for me in one or two scenes)A movie lives or dies by what's on the screen, not the history behind the making of the movie.

I Can only assume that the people putting the film down have not realised that the film was made on a shoe string it was an independant film the director had occupied more roles than Simon Templar , location and story was easily more admirable and just as good as Val kilmers flop the red planet if not better in my opinion , we must not see independant films as crap films but as films to be developed as a budding filmaker my self it is quite inspiringTAKE NOTICE AND DONT MOCK WE ALL WILL HAVE START SOMEWHERE
