Reviews

All'alba del XXII secolo l'astronave spaziale di soccorso 'Nightingale 229' sta compiendo una spedizione di routine nello spazio profondo. Mentre tutti sono impegnati nelle normali attività di bordo, da uno dei pianeti della galassia arriva un segnale di soccorso da parte di un naufrago alieno. L'astronave si precipita in suo soccorso ma, compiuto il balzo nell'iperspazio, si ritrova proprio sulla rotta di una Supernova sul punto di esplodere. I membri dell'equipaggio devono inoltre vedersela con Karl Larson, il carismatico e misterioso giovane da loro salvato.

3.0 out of 5 stars visually stunning but somewhat flawed 23 Jan 2002
By A Customer
Format:DVD
This is an exciting,visually stunning but flawed sci-fi film:it is quite derivative in places,mostly echoing "alien" and has a female computer which is kind of a flip-side to Hal from "2001...".Also,the film does not seem quite sure what it is trying to say or how philosophically its trying to say it(the excellent deleted scenes section of the dvd shows just how much the message had been tweaked by the time of release).Despite these faults-which are not glaringly obvious as you watch-I found it thoroughly enjoyable.Spader is quietly mesmeric as the ex drug addict forced to take control of the ship and is ably backed up by the initially frosty Angela Basset.The special effects are stunning and perform exactly as they should,drawing you into the film without being too flashy.Well worth viewing if you like sci-fi films and the cut-scenes on the dvd are a good addition.Someone should tell Lou Diamond Phillips to give up his day job though...

3.0 out of 5 stars Flawed classic awaiting the Director's Cut 9 Jan 2001
By A Customer
Format:DVD
This is a classic representation of the Sci Fi genre set in a 'Alien' environment complete with familiar characters. The film however has the potential to be greater than the cut that we actual see and it is only by viewing the deleted scenes that we can start to appreciate the potential of this vision. I can see this film revised in ten years as a Director's cut with a new opening sequence and added tension leading to a pay off finish. If you saw the film at the cinema it is worth getting the DVD to see the lost sequences and allow yourself to reedit the film and enjoy something that the Director must have originally envisaged.

Format:DVD
An entertaining, if somewhat gory, SF movie. With a reasonable level of intelligence, and well-drawn characters, this manages to rise above being "a horror film set in space". My main gripe was that while the science and technology is just about hard enough to satisfy, it could have been elaborated on more. Still, to be fair, there's more hard science here than there is in most SF movies, and most of it comes in the backstory that is slowly revealed to excellent effect as it interacts with the plot. As for the deep space visuals, ship models and FX, they're flawless. Worth watching, but it's very much "a see-once cinema movie" and I doubt it'll keep its attraction as a DVD film beyond a second or third viewing.

3.0 out of 5 stars Sci-fi Fun
This is an entertaining movie, which certainly takes its cues from 'Alien'. A mixture of sci-fi, with some minor horror elements thrown in as well. Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Good
A good space drama. Not on a par with 'Alien' or similar science fiction films, but okay if you're a sci-fi fan. Not much about a supernova in this film though.
