Starts here next Thursday, and the trailers have been running for the last week or so.
Looks interesting in a sci-fi/Bruce Willis actioner kinda way.
Anyone seen it yet (has it been released in the US?) or heard anything about it?

Willis' wig alone is enough to keep me away.
One sci-fi loving co-worker saw it and said it was "ok".

The wife and I saw it a couple of weeks ago over here, we both thought it wasn't bad.:) Actually it has a few well done if not a little cliche scenes. The effects are pretty good as well. The story line/premis is one that would hold up and indeed has over time. Infact I found it alittle thought provoking when you step a bit deeper into it after letting the brain digest what it saw and heard. My only beef is as a thriller style of vehical it could have been another 15 minutes or so longer to really develop some scenes, plot, characters and that "hang what just happened?" reaction. I'd go for an 8 out of 10 score for it :thumbsup: and Bruce even manages to bring out more than his usual 2 dimensional action acting, :devil: maybe like a good red wine he improves with age??? :rolleyes:
Cheers,
Alec.
