Title: this film couldn't carry stanley kubrick's jock-strap!
Review: I didn't care that lots of people forwarned me that this film sucked. I hear that 2001: a space odyssey had lots of detractors when it was first released. so i was hoping for a misunderstood masterpiece. well, once again in life, my hopes were dashed. whereas 2001 (stanley kubrick's masterpiece) is understated, with brilliant low-key performances by the actors, this is overly-melodramatic B-movie mediocrity. I turned it off at the 80 minute mark. i didn't care about these people at all, because they obviously were not real people. they were actors through and through. bad actors to boot. stiff, bad actors in a silly movie that could have been made for TV back in the 70'S. nothing about this film was convincing. it was not hard to follow, it just stunk. if you like this sort of thing, more power to you. i wish you well. I just found it a waste of time.
