2.0 out of 5 stars slow, 23 April 2009
Am watching this as i write, which may indicate how enthralling it is. Seems the director(?) believes a slow build up equals tension. Well no, tension is the suggestion that something is about to happen. It often more effective than shock as it make you feel uncomfortable, like the slow ascent of a rollercoaster. However we sit through conversion then an educational video about surgery. When it hits the halfway mark things start to get more interesting, and i am watching more than typing. I expect i will enjoy the final half but then first half would leave many wandering out of the cinema. 70s films often had a valuable lack of pace that is missing from today's breakneck cinema. Such films would make you think and pay attention and are truly missed. Star Wars came along a virtually wiped out a genre of sci fi which i miss, even if i was too young at the time. Saying that, I grew up on Star wars and love it. I hope my patience is rewarded here. I'm not sure if people walk out of cinema's now, they just start talking on their mobiles. Anyway I'll the rest of the this a chance, and if fails i can alway dig out my copy of westworld...

2.0 out of 5 stars Not ALL bad, but mostly...., 30 Nov 2003
By Mr. G. B. Morgan - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This, in the exact words of the man who wrote the source novel for this movie, is a wasted opportunity.

The subject matter is not a problem - it was science fact when ther movie was made, and could well be commonplace today. The writing is not a problem, though Mike Hodges has done better (check out Damien: Omen II or the original Get Carter for proof). The acting isn't a huge problem (though everyone manages to get through the movie looking like they are bored to tears with it). Even the directing is not a big problem (though, again, Hodges has done better).

Nope - all present and correct. The main fault for this being a monumental failure MUST lie with the late Mr Robert Wolfe - Editor. The pace of this movie is it's own death - and to someone who is a big fan of the source material, that is a huge, huge disappointment. Read the book, it won't seem to take as long as this movie. Time for a Director's Cut, I feel....
