A mildly interesting movie, but rather predictable and uneven. Some scenes seem strangely out of place with only a mild connection to the story. Armin Mueller-Stahl is, as always, a joy to watch. Kate Greenhouse is radiant but I found her character a little unbelievable, at least in the last scene. Without giving anything away, I am not sure I could take forgiveness that far.
Okay, its been awhile since I saw this movie, but it is burned in my memory as the worst movie I have ever seen. It seems whoever wrote the script tried to bring in every hokey UFO/Aliens/whatever theory they could dredge up, from aliens building the pyramids to the Bermuda Triangle. I swear, the 'research' for this moving was from reading the Weekly World News.
And the so-called special effects. The 'Suicide Ray' was an obviously toy spaceship circling badly around a globe with an electrical arc going from a metal ball on a post coming out of the top of the flying saucer to the globe. Other flying saucers were obviously just thrown like a frisbee and filmed that way as 'cool flying sfx.'
All I can figure is that they were TRYING to be hokey. You can't get this bad without real effort.
