Rating:  - Deserves zero stars
Why translate a _great classic_ scifi story by a master like Ray Bradbury if you arent't going to make even a token effort at getting it right? Bradbury's short story is one of THE classic scifi stories, along with greats by Arthur C. Clarke, Isaac Asimov and even the original god H.G. Wells.
This is the kind of movie that makes you wonder how some talent keeps getting work at all, in this case Peter Hyams, who could not have done a worse job. And what fooled the actors into taking ... Read More
Rating:  - Ok, Lots of fun, CGI is bad.
This movie was pretty good for what it was. I am sure if the company had more money they could have come up with a lot better looking story. What they couldnt come up with is a better story. It was pretty good. I feel Ray would have been pleased with the result. I mean the story is what drives the talk not the pretty pictures. They serve as a backdrop. Seriously, if you want to do better, call a production company, have them set you up with 100 million dollars and knock yourself out. Other ... Read More
Rating: - Plot holes beyond scope
Plot hole to destroy the ENTIRE Movie
Here it is. They go back in time. One creature is accidentally killed. Causing this WHOLE movie to go thru it's plot. But consider this, in the movie, There is a Volcano exploding with pyro fall and the works and it blasts thru the area in question where this creature was killed. Considering what this one creature is that got killed, there is no way in hell that creature could survive or any offspring to survive after the volcano hit that area only minutes ... Read More
Rating:  - Those that rate at 1 or 2 must only watch block busters
This movie was exactly what I would expect for a regular Sci-Fi video, or made for TV or B movie. I'm guessing that all those those who rated this video as 1 or 2 are the type of movie renter who only picks from the new releases or top picks video sections at the rental store.
The CGI was good for a low budget and the sets were good. The acting was OK not great but better than I have seen on some enjoyable Sci-Fi that that I have watched. The movie did just as good at following the book as most ... Read More
Rating: - Good popcorn movie
O.K. The special effects could have been better, but I did not have as much of a problem as many of the negative critics. For one thing, it's SCIENCE FICTION!! Hard to apply 2008 science to it. The acting was O.K. Yeah, nothing special. Did have quite a bit of action to it. Weird creatures?... Watch some of the National Geographic documentaries on deep sea creatures.It did hold my interest, and I am a big fan of Sci-Fi.
