Albus L Feb 10, 2019 The Relic. The Ciler the better, and this is pretty silly.

Kylo W Oct 30, 2018 Look. It isn't exactly Jaws or Aliens. But It is way better then most horror flicks of recent days. And remember so many of the critics are reviewing it 20 years after it came out and basing their comments like 'it is totally derivative' and the fact they are seeing it after 20 years of B movies have made this type of movie insanely cliche. But at the time it was a serious risk, and the reviews at the time it came out were not nearly as bad as they are twenty years later. If all you are is some snob who thinks by predicting the end of a story that makes you smart or something, then you don't know storytelling. All stories follow predictable structures, even Aliens and Jaws. Yes some of it is clichc, especially now. No it isn't some modern day film where the trend is to out psycho each other out and try to present something as demented as possible. If you are into horrors for entertainment rides, not gore fests it isn't that bad a movie, There are enough ideas that were original at the time to make it work. Of course in today's anti science world, where climate change is taken with the same seriousness as pro wrestling, than for some, any science in a movie, means they hate it It doesn't mean the science possible, but neither was the science possible in Jaws, or Aliens, but it is at least based on some ideas of science. Most people now are totally into Arks and likely will give this movie a bad review simple because it talks about DNA and evolution. That seems to be about the same number of people who think climate change is fake. Go figure. See more

Abraham R May 22, 2018 Watch it again on BBC IPLAYER I most have watch it about 10 times in my lifetime.

Anakin G Feb 15, 2018 Removing Pendergast from the movie was the first mistake. The second was keeping the pacing too slow for such a darkly filmed movie. See more

Theodore M Feb 7, 2018 A dreadful movie. Cashing in on the success of the X-FILES and making a sub-par ripoff of an X-FILE with better special effects. See more

Han G Jan 13, 2018 Pretty straight forward monster movie.....of sorts. Nothing too flashy but I enjoyed it. The book is also pretty solid.
