Title: Escape from Earth?
Review: I've loved everything Kurt Russell has done since Escape from New York,however this story seems rather one-dimensional. You can pretty much predict the following scenes way before they happen,as well as the ending,due to following old formulas that have worked well in the past for less demanding audiences. Action being of paramount importance,this production delivers,meeting all expectations. Special effects,while not top notch,are only marginally below what might be expected for a high budget si-fi. Emotional behaviors of men trained exclusively for war are well conveyed throughout,but may miss the mark for those not exposed to the rigors of diversity. The DVD version has both widescreen and standard formats,something that should be included on all discs. Well worth the price of admission.
