aaysedemir Again one of the airplane adventure movies. It resembles the movies about "Oh, we're all gonna die if our hero guy can't save us!". It is again a fight between the good, bad, and ugly. The scientific point used in the script is about Wormholes. So, if anyone says "Time travel should be fun but it is boring here", please go check what a WORMHOLE is. The wormhole is exactly seen in the movie. For those who like to have just fun but no education, please take a nap or do something else.If you are interested in science - fiction a little bit, you may enjoy the movie. Otherwise, I can't guarantee that you will have a good time.
Wizard-8 I thought that this movie was going to be junk, considering that it was a low-budget Canadian movie with washed-up actors. Actually, the movie ended up being a lot more entertaining than I thought.To begin with, the acting by all the participants is generally good. Priestley is careful not to act like Superman in his heroic role, and he ends up being a believable protagonist that you hope will succeed. Phillips is actually good in an atypical role as a scientist - I actually didn't recognize him right away when I first saw him! The movie actually builds a decent amount of tension, in part due to some bad guys who seem unstoppable yet believable. I actually wondered if the protagonists would prevail.Is there anything bad about the movie? Well, the computer-generated special effects are not theatrical film quality. They are often quite cheesy. But for what must have been a VERY low budget, they do the job. Also, the ending of the movie raises some unanswered questions, like with the hero's cel phone doing something that I think would be impossible given the circumstances. Still, the movie overall manages to be an entertaining B movie - that is, if you don't pay to see it.
junkof9-1 Every weekend I look through the list of movies the Sci-Fi channel is showing. I won't deny a lot of them range from silly to just plain awful - wooden acting, cheap special effects, horrible scripts - but in there among the silly stuff are a number of what I call "hidden gems"; movies perfect to lean back in an over stuffed chair with popcorn and a soda and just enjoy the ride.That's how I felt when I finished "Termination Point". It will never gross $100M or win any Oscars, but taken on its own merits it's really quite good. Jason Priestly plays a detective going on vacation with his family when he gets the call to go after a renegade scientist (Lou Diamond Phillips) who has stolen a scientific device.What I especially loved about the movie is that, unlike most modern horror/science fiction movies (especially those that seem to make their way to the Sci-Fi Channel) the "surprise twist" ending doesn't have the monster or killer reviving once again (to show the last two hours you just spent were wasted and evil really wins) but has an uplifting twist where things actually work out better.
optimusprime12345 I am giving this movie a 6 out of 10 because the acting in the movie was good for a B movie plus there were quite a few veteran actors in this movie that still new how to act. The problem wasn't the acting it was when I saw a preview on the Sci-Fi channel where it was going to be shown this sat. So I went and acquired a copy too watch it so I don't have too get the butchered version from Sci-Fi.The way I see it is that the movie was good the special effects they could of worked on a little more. The story was a little ruff but all in all it was definitely watchable. If you plan too see this wait for the sci-fi showing this sat for it and do not waste your money on buying it.There is one other thing that was a little cheesy that I didn't care for I guess some of the stuff that was going too happen.
