Synopsis

In the 22nd century, seven explorers set out on a mission to earth's nearest sister planet, AURORA. Their mission - to survey and explore for future colonization. When their ship suddenly malfunctions, the crew is forced to crash land on the planet's surface, where crippling heat, poisonous water, and fierce storms threaten their lives at every turn. With a handful of supplies and little hope of rescue, their only option is a grueling four hundred mile trek to their ship's lost supply bunkers. To survive, the men will have to push their endurance to the limit and entrust their lives to a leader who will risk everything to succeed, no matter what the consequences.

peaps I rented this video from the Video shop for £2.50 and I felt thoroughly ripped off after watching about 20 minutes of it. Complete drab story-line, pathetic special effects and no plot. All it consisted off was a group of blokes camping at night in a tent, and walking across a desert through day. Thats it. Oh, and along the way, there was a sandstorm which was the highlight. I honestly can't believe this got made into a video. I could do better with my pet hamster, RC monster truck and camcorder. Anyway, after I watched about 20 minutes as I say, I just hit the fast forward button and watched the rest of the film in fast forward mode. I was looking forward to seeing some spaceship action or aliens etc, but all that I was presented with was these guys in fake space suits walking across the desert then having a cup of soup out of a thermos flask in the tent at night. Along the way, some guys died, but thats about as adventurous as it got. Severely NOT recommended to anyone, unless you want to become a vegetable.
Rincewind Very few films I have ever seen have left me semi-conscious by the end. It really was that much of a struggle to stay awake & watch this drivel.Usually even a really bad film will have some entertaining feature, like really hammy acting or an insane plot.This film has nothing to redeem it whatsoever. The acting is awful, the plot completely pointless and the special effects are at least 20 years out of date. By the end I was just wishing that it would be over, but even this is drawn out, at only 87 minutes it's not one of the longest films in the world, yet the makers still found the need to pad it out with pointlessly long, lingering shots that do nothing whatsoever to improve the film.This story could have easily been told in a 45 minute short film.If you're considering watching this film then save yourself the time & effort to stay awake.
mike wright (BigMikeWright) Fundamentally a boring film. The idea could have made a good film, but this isn't it. It seems cheaply made, with little characterisation or acting abilities. To simulate an aline landscap they use a filter to give everything a strange colour. Very unimpressive. They walk for practically the entire film, and tat is as exciting as it gets
leevmlafn1 This is to the reviewer who mentioned that it was low budget and made on credits cards, so please give it its due. Sorry, that doesn't wash. I've seen other movies made on shoestring budgets that managed to be good despite their low budgets. And since most people won't know it was made on a shoestring budget, they only have the finished product to judge, and that seems to be lacking. Heck, Robt. Rodriguez made EL MARIACHI for $7000 (not including the soundtrack that now exists on the video; that was cleaned up by Columbia Pictures when they bought the rights, and spent $100,000 doing it) and look what he did; sometimes it's edited a bit too fast for me in one or two scenes)A movie lives or dies by what's on the screen, not the history behind the making of the movie.
