From my favorite movies..
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama
For starters, this movie bears no relation to the film info listed here "It is 2020 and the impending apocalypse is inevitable. Due to a rapidly growing Black Hole headed straight for the sun, Earth begins to fall into darkness" nothing to do with THIS film in any way shape or form. Some interesting special effects and a relatively promising storyline, let down by some implausible moments of scene setting, lots of British actors on-board. Its not terrible, just nowhere near as promising as the incredibly misleading tag-line. I often find movies based on such leading intros and this just misleading, it's simply wrong as if it has been written about another film entirely. I hope this didn't come from the studio themselves and its simply been miskeyed. if anyone were to invest money in a project based on an outline like this they'd be more disappointed at the result than I was with watching it.
Well what can I say about this made for TV movie? The acting was not bad, although some of the support actors would have had trouble getting into am-dram productions. the story line was the same old 'quest' story, searching for that elusive artifact. One good point was a baddie that actually admits his mistake and works with the Indiana Jones type hero to save the world. However;... . . In my opinion there should be an international law (UN help please) that anyone other than script writers with a physics degree, should be banned from writing sci-fi scripts/teleplays. The worst thing about this movie was the total disregard for science. the continuity in the film is totally missing. In the first part of the film a cave collapses, seemingly covering the floor of the enormous cavern. Later the same cave appears again, but there is no sign of the cave-in and the nice path remains clear of rubble. Nice clean-up Sweden. Then there is the quick rescue when a helicopter crashes in Sweden and a team is sent out from Vienna (that's Austria, at least a thousand miles away) and the rescue team find them and get them back within the hour. That's some helicopter they have. No wonder most Americans don't have a clue about geography.
