Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.
It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.
An interesting concept that totally missed the mark. While science fiction does test the limits of logic and reason, this film is so badly beyond that it pushes one's tolerance of the genre. In the end just a bad film and a wast of a few hours of your life that would be better spent elsewhere. From bad acting to a poor story line, there is little to redeem this film.The cast, while including some talent, does not reach its potential and is overwhelmed by poor cheesy acting by the lesser known actors. Even the CGI is not of a high enough standard to make up for the poor acting. For a movie made for television I guess it is passable, but I have a much higher standard in this day and age of CGI.
The plot: A teleportation device opens up a wormhole over California, threatening to suck in our entire universe.Termination Point is a stupid movie, but it's not boring. A good argument could also be made that it's a bad movie, but I was still able to watch it to the end. I think that counts for something. Anyone who watches a TV movie starring Jason Priestley and Lou Diamond Phillips probably knows exactly what he or she is walking into, so I probably don't need to give any warnings about quality.Essentially, this is a cheap, poorly acted TV movie, and any attempt to make sense of it is doomed to failure. Luckily, the technobabble is kept a minimum, though some of the scenes are a bit too long. If you've got a degree of patience for that sort of thing (and you're forgiving of cheesy plots), you might be able to wrest some entertainment from this movie.
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.
It's certainly more entertaining and thought out than a lot of the sci-fi flicks that make it into theaters these days. It has a decent storyline and a proper sequence of events that's neither too complicated or confusing. Thus it doesn't require much thought, so it is like a light hearted sci-fi thriller. The acting was good, Jason Priestley does a very good job portraying his character, plus he looks good.The special effects were pretty amateur. You can tell that the helicopters are toys and all the lightening bolts are quite fake. However, that did not get in the way of enjoying the movie. It probably doesn't deserve the 7 I rated it but I wanted to almost neutralize all the terrible comments since there are far worse movies that make it to theaters which many people go see, and this one is actually pretty good. If someone wanted to watch it for the first time I'd probably see it with them again.
