Operação Helex

An unimpressive, uninspired rip-off of the 1966 classic `Fantastic Voyage` about as suspenseful as Corn Flakes. `Antibody' is basically a low budget made for TV movie built around some CGI graphics, rather then a good (or remotely interesting) story. Don't even get me started about the ship interior sets. Available on DVD, I'm sure it would make an adequate coaster.

Disgraiced former-FBI, Richard Gaynes (Lance Henriksen), a year after the government had canned him after a terrorism case went horribly wrong, has to go through the highly experimental gambit of being shrunk down to microscopic size and to join a team of equally diminutive people in order to retrieve a biological bomb that has been embedded inside a terrorist's body before he dies and everything blows up. Gaynes is also assisting the cold fish, Dr. Saverini (Robin Givens), whom he's attracted to for some reason.

I wanted to like this film simply on the basis that Lance Henriksen is a favorite actor of mine, and it was serviceable enough until we get to the 'Innerspace' storyline. When Lance set's foot on the ship his character who before had been calm, cool and collected reverts into an awe-struck schoolboy-type that is either constantly asking repetitive questions (especially about 'the whites') or exclaiming how awed he is. Givens is little better as the cold fish with a 'sweet interior', while the other two shipmates are completely and utterly worthless. The film itself lacked any kind of excitement and i found myself getting bored long before the film was over.

My Grade: D

Not a bad little Sci-Fi TV Movie starring the wonderful Lance Henriksen. Nano Technology is the way of the future and terrorists have come up with a wonderful new method - hiding the trigger for a bomb inside their bodies so if they are killed, the bomb goes off. Henriksen, an explosives expert and a team of specially trained scientist as sent to deactivate a trigger for a Nuclear weapon that will vapourise Munich and contaminate western Europe, the trigger is of course inside a loopy terrorist's body. To get to it, the team are shrunk down and sent into the terrorist in a little ship. Some nice visual effects inside the body and a reasonably enjoy film, if a little cliqued. But hey, it's Henriksen!

Don't waste your time watching this movie. I almost switched the channel, but I thought well just maybe it will get better. NOT! Such Poor directing, and terrible acting with the exception for Lance Henriksen and William Zabka-(Karate kid) though William part is short. Lance must be in need of money or offers are slim pickings to star in movies. Oh, and Robin Givens is also in this, not that she offered much in helping this movie.

anyway: People were thrown in front of the camera making you wonder what the heck was the point, why were they even there. Oh, maybe it was so they could say "hey I was in a movie", all of 5 seconds. oh and the plot, wait what was it? hum?

Echoing the majority of comments here, this is a horrible ripoff of 'Fantastic Voyage'. With the exception of a few lines added for comic relief, the film as someone else suggested would be best used as fodder for a revived film-spoofing voice-over show. Robbin Givens and the newscaster looked a bit pleased to be seen in anything, but the rest of the cast seemed to be in pain (understandably). Heinricksen appears to have a hemorrhoid problem during his FBI review, or maybe he is just looking for the stage exit door to escape his agreement to do this film. It seems every opportunity was taken to waste chances to choose logical, practical, entertaining or otherwise valuable approaches to each scene. Some of the most ludicrous: seats with no harnesses, Star Wars fighting within the blood vessels, a terrorist who wakes up but does not even flinch during during several deep needles in the neck as he pretends to sleep, and the entire 'deactivation' of the detonator scene! Why did Zabka leave Mr. Miagi behind--we needed him to kick this one into the trash!
