misticalistic I saw this movie when i was a teenager and I loved it - at the time i did not realize it was a pilot for a TV show, I have been searching for it for years, I could never remember the title and it was driving me nuts. Over the years i would try searching for it, all i could remember was that City was in the title, well now i found it and I agree with most who have posted on this title. Sci-Fi really should pick it up and run with it. I think that it could rank right up there with Stargate etc. Maybe if everyone who enjoyed the pilot wrote to Sci-Fi they would try to revive the plot. If anyone has a copy of the pilot I would LOVE to get a copy of it.
tclah918 I have seen the movie and did like several of its characters and the movie had very good potential. I think that if they had had a bigger budget it would have made a very good Sci-fi series. The story line and characters were there, I just think they didn't go into it with a real push for the series it was meant for. Greg 23 and Lt. Mindy are just a couple of our favorite characters, would have love to see how they evolved during the series. All in all though it was a good movie with great characters. My family did enjoy watching and have watched a few time, it is a good comfort movie and one you can watch with pretty much the whole family. We would also be interested in buying it on DVD if it was ever to be released.
budikavlan Granted, it may be a cheapie pilot, with cheesy special effects and unknown actors, but this movie was fun to watch. Don't go into it expecting another Space Odyssey, but it's a pleasant way to spend a couple of hours if you have time to kill.
bbrasher1 On second thought, that would be cruel. It's a big nothing of a movie with no redeeming qualities whatsoever. Violent mutants, brought about by the side effects of some heart medication, threaten the existence of the title city and instead succeed in torturing anyone who sits through this sorry excuse for a made-for-tv movie. So lame, it actually hurts. The only advantage for me was that I caught it on tv rather than being suckered into throwing away money to rent it at Blockbusters, so consider yourself warned.Rating: NO STARS out of *****
