Yes, wow! They ought to give you an award if you're able to sit through this whole monstrosity. The effects, for the time, were great. Unfortunately, it's an Arthur C Clark story. I can see why druggies went to see this movie. I, in fact, could use some serious medication after wasting this bit of my life. The best option for this film is to destroy all copies of it and pretend it was never made. Better yet, let's seal it up on a black rectangular box and launch it into space - maybe the moon, or possibly Jupiter.

Wait, I've got it: replace the entire soundtrack with polka music. Watch this movie, and you'll agree with me.

Do you ever watch a movie and say, "If only I could edit this?" This is one of those pictures. I would pare it down to 90 minutes, completely removing scenes like the piano in the ballroom during the storm. I would also shorten some of the drawn-out scenes. Otherwise, visually, this was quiet nice. The sets were great, although the SFX really showed their age (some 24 years later).

I hope I am not calling attention to a disability, but Vince's rapid eye movement was very distracting. Tim Roth and Clarence Williams' performances were both commendable.

Unfortunately, this is not one of those movies that I will watch again.

Take Scott Haze for some diction lessons, then put him in an ADR studio, and you MIGHT be able to understand what he says.

The action of the movie was good, and the visual quality was excellent. The location(s) fit the story well. (Were those fields of Bluestem?) The closing music was some of the most boring, monotonous tripe I've heard in a while.

You have a story oft-told, with a minor twist that wasn't bad. (No spoiler.) I just couldn't find a character that gained my empathy.

This was one of those movies that, when finished, you say to yourself, 'Gee, I wish I had that hour and a half back'.
