Wonderful character development!
Some things I liked some I did not.
A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
View MoreThere is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
View MoreAn astronaut being the carrier of alien insect seeds returns to earth and spawns a bunch of hostile moths, thus spreading the infection. The moths need human hosts to complete their evolution and... yada yada, we've heard it all before. The often ridiculed SyFy Channel - before their name-change, actually – produced this lamentable alien invasion TV-effort, resulting in a highly uninspired mess of straight-faced, cliché-driven shenanigans. Nicholas Lea and Jamie Luner run around earning their paycheck as the scientist duo figuring out ways to save mankind. Nothing remotely interesting is done with the material, and Charles Bowman's utterly bland directing is smudged by cheap cinematography and some generic CGI effects. Remind me again why I watched this?
View MoreYes, Skiffy strikes again with a movie made up of poor special effects and mediocre actors...The plot is that a shower of tiny meteorites pierce an astronaut's space suit, and infect him with insect DNA. A hot female entomologist is called in. (Because, honestly, only in a Skiffy movie can a female entomologist be considered "hot") and teams up with a NASA mission specialist nicknamed "Geranimo". (Seriously, this is what passes for writing on Skiffy!) Well, the insect burst out of the astronaut's body, and they look just like, oh, regular moths. Then the infect other people, who grow extra limbs and need to suck the life out of other people. Throw in the gung-ho national security guy, some other minor characters who probably slept with the producers, and what you get is two hours of mess that Skiffy will put on one of their weekend "bug" marathons....
View MoreThere's nothing much to discuss. This starts out okay, for about ten minutes, and then proceeds to get worse moment by moment. An astronaut in space is hit by small "meteorites" that turn out to be of alien insect origin and upon returning to Earth, they leave this man alone in a regular hospital with the window open. No quarantine, no security, no special attention at all. Then, two of three people who know that this is an alien life form that has not only killed the astronaut, but has also escaped through the open window, then proceed to go kayaking and biking. And this is just the beginning of the illogical parts. However, the most annoying & mystifying aspect of this is that the interesting and talented Nicholas Lea can't get better parts than this. I don't get it. Everyone I know was impressed and/or intrigued with him in The X-Files, but he never capitalized on it. What a shame.
View MoreOkay, first off, this is a Sci-Fi original. So that tells us right of the bat that this isn't exactly going to be The Empire Strikes Back. However, it did have a few good points. For example, the movie was very loyal. Whoever wrote the script knew what they where talking about, that being bugs of course. Also, the acting and effects where good in the main categories. There where also some creative twists and excellent camera work. Yet, as I said before, this isn't exactly Star Wars.First of all, there was some pretty cheesey dialogue. Also, not the most gripping plot line. In my opinion the story kind of falls flat on it's face after the first hour or so. The ending was not at all well done. It just seemed like it was thrown together at the last possible second. Rather anti-climatic if you ask me. But then again, there wasn't much to build up on.
