2036 Origin Unknown

Not a bad basic premise if somewhat 2001/2010 esque and got some good reviews but suffers badly from being low budget and a bit up its own

Mrs K's one word summary:  "crap"

I didn't think it was too bad, it certainly had potential and it's a bit of a change for Sackhoff as she's been pretty much typecast since Battlestar Galactica
I'd go with "not too bad".  It had far more potential than it delivered though.  Her performance as 90% plus of the acting was very good but not as captivating as needs to be if it's all revolving round one person and the set
Well, whatever, nevermind

It's a 'The Rock' film so it's completely ridiculous but very watchable for all that

BM would hate it

It's one of the few films based on a game that seems to work, mainly because the game was purely about 3 giant creatures demolishing a city and had no plot...  lol:

Baldymort? Something tells me that as far as wholesale chaos and destruction is concerned those three would be the unholy trinity...  scared2:
