Boring, over-political, tech fuzed mess
As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.
The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
Let me begin by saying that every movie released deserves a 1(one). I don't care how bad the movie, actors, script, etc is. Just the sheer fact that these movies are pressed onto discs for you to buy or rent should gain them a 1(one). This movie surpassed that criteria, only by a fraction. It did that by its subject matter. A man's genetic makeup crossed with a transgenic* (of, pertaining to, or containing a gene or genes transferred from another species)Komodo Dragon, the common Iguana and a snake(unspecified). Fairly unique premise and that is it....there really is not much more to say. The acting was flat (or non-existent). The script seemed to be more difficult than the actors could handle. That is very sad in that most of the people who created this, dare I say, monstrosity were also actors in the film. The movie also had more plot holes than Swiss cheese. I thought I would at least get a laugh or two, at the expense of the film's ineptitude, but no chuckles were forthcoming. View at your own risk.
