[Killer Bees]

I saw this movie last weekend.  Have to say I was disappointed.

I thought I'd like this movie.  I kept waiting for something to happen and nothing really did.  I guess I was expecting a 28 Days Later/Event Horizon type thing.  Maybe if I didn't have any expectations, it would have been better.  But I guess it's hard to go in completely clear minded about movies.

At least the scientific adviser on the movie is actually a scientist.  They featured him in a recent issue of Focus magazine, but his name escapes me for the moment.

What did you all think of this one?

Actually, I thought it was one of the few movies that, at the beginning, just totally "immersed" me, you know?  I really felt like these guys were really on a spaceship, had this mission and stuff, loves a lot of the sets, especially the Oxygen Garden.  I loved the soundtrack as well. 

Buuuut...

I don't know, I can't help but think it would have been better if they'd stuck with the "constantly experiencing technical problems" building suspense a la Apollo 13 rather than the direction they ultimately choose to go.  Kind of turned the movie into a cliche, in my humble opinion.

It feels more like a summary of all sci-fi hits from "2001" onwards than as a real movie, but I found it very enjoyable, if only for the far fetched twists and the visuals.

  For the most part I enjoyed it.The movie had kind of a weird yet cool vibe to it.I liked the idea of the sun as god /angry deity.Somewhat tarnished by the last 15min
kinda reminded me of Altered States a little.I might buy it if I can get it cheap.
