Alien Evolution II

This came on after some other movie, on TV and it ran for awhile in the background until I got up to look and see, was it really as bad as it sounded? Answer: worse.

The writing is, well, what writing. No actor could make it jump, and Keith did not disappoint in this area. There was no pop, no drama, no NUTTIN' in his voice. I sat through a few mins of it and can only say it is no wonder we are turning into a 3rd class country. We can't write our way out of a paper bag, we do not have actors that can act, preferring to import them from elsewhere, etc etc etc.

This flick is as bad as it gets. I shan't even start in on the visual. All involved with this flick ought to be drummed out of the business and never allowed in the industry again. It is as bad as it gets. Worse.

I wish I could've seen this high budget movie in theaters, i loved the first one, and it kept me interested throughout. The plot was very much the same as the first one mixed with a bit of Taken, but that isn't bad, very good in fact, the plot was good, the religious overtones worked real well like in the first movie. There was also good acting, David Keith was real natural in his role, and just about all the characters likable when supposed to be and dislikable when supposed to be. All in all, the best tho hours I've had in recent weeks. A good watch.

Having watched and enjoyed Epoch last week, I was looking forward to this. It wasn't too disappointing, but the first one was definitely better. The actors were actually worse than in the first, which is quite a feat. The plot was somewhat interesting, but once again not nearly as good as the original. The director took this in a much more religious direction, which I think was a very bad idea. The introduction of Mason's kid was a horribly contrived plot point, that lead up to a horribly predictable conclusion. It wasn't all bad though...the Torus's looked as good as ever, and I quite liked the idea of an "evil" Torus. Overall this is worth watching if you're a fan of the first one, but don't be expecting much.

5.5/10

amateurish space trash.

politically retarded; scientifically inaccurate; religiously barbaric.

and of course, there's the bad story; bad photography; bad editing; laughably inept dialog.

no point talking about the acting here; these 'professional' actors are reciting lines on cue without any sense that the lines might accumulate into meaningful speech - for the simple reason that it is impossible for them to accumulate into some kind of meaningful speech - it is the usual TV-space-trash babble that people in LSD-flashback really admire.

crap.

Quite literally, this movie was laughable. The acting is atrocious, my friends and I were busting up laughing in every single scene. It was fairly entertaining, actually, it is the sort of movie that will end up on Mystery Science Theatre 4000 in about 20 years. It looks like they blew all of their mid-level budget on the computer effects scenes, which are decent. The rest of the movie takes place in and out of various tents, and the Torus... which looks suspiciously like a laser tag arena that they rented for a few hours one afternoon. The plot is silly and obvious, the religious overtones are blatant to the point of being insulting. If you want to see a melodramatic cheesy sci-fi movie, this one delivers in spades.

The hero looks like the Fat Elvis version of David Hasselhoff. Enough said.
