Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.

It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Yes, some reviewers will agree with this observation. But this is not that bad a movie. Remember these are "low budget" films, do not expect Alien, Blade Runner, or 2001 Space Odyssey to be produced here. Do not expect clever dialog as in Front Page, Treasure of Sierra Madre, Casablanca and others.What you can expect is an entertaining flick about some sort of monster, hybrid monster or extra terrestrial monster with CGI, minimum dialog, hero flubs (like sudden inability to shoot straight to get the evil bureaucrat), chases, cute buxom (in this case flat chested)babes being chased by said monster. It is a predictable beef stew with the same ingredients but we usually enjoy it for lunch anyway.The actors are above average as the main characters are played by good TV actors: Nicholas Brendon, Sandrine Holt and Randolph Mantooth, and they really keep the movie going and keep it from stalling out.Plot: a "fireball" leaves the sun on it's own initiative to reek havoc on poor earthlings. And it does so by killing a firefighter sidekick, only to resurrect itself some 40 years later. The "fireball" "chases" and explodes victims into their own fireball.Written by Bill Shatner of "Priceline" fame, it follows a generic voyage through the stars. But, I enjoyed the acting, the reporters cut in half, and unsuspecting innocents bursting into flame, the ubiquitous evil bureaucrat, baffled military personnel, and fire fighting heroes.

Sometimes I enjoy a low budget science fiction film like this, mindless fun. Interesting that Chakotay from Star Trek Voyager is in this film, it took me a minute to figure out it was him as he looks a little older and has gained some weight. There is a really cute news crew camera lady that gets killed off in the film, could not find her name in the cast list. I read the main review but disagree as this is not a big budget film and I don't expect to great special affects and great acting, but I enjoy seeing minor B level actors sometimes. I saw the film today in Thailand on my cable TV Syfy Universal Channel. So if you just want to relax and watch a fun film and see some rookie actors with some seasoned B level actors, this is worth a look.

Awful film.This picture looks like the makers discovered they hardly had any budget and certainly no talent in any aspect. So they found the cheapest and worst "actors", used a few warehouse and street locations etc, and found some amateur special effects people to patch together this terrible movie.The story:"Alien creatures emerge from the sun and attack Earth"More like alien picture producers emerge from the mental hospital to attack the viewing public.How I could sit through this rubbish, goodness knows; suppose I was stupefied by the sheer badness of the whole thing.I cannot give a vote less than 1 out of ten, so I have rounded up my half mark to that.

Sci-Fi channel presents FIRE SERPENT. Some interesting FX, but story line not all that interesting. Jake(Nicholas Brendon)is little more than a rookie firefighter that watches his partner go up in flames. A 40-year veteran, Dutch Fallon(Randolph Mantooth)convinces Jake that the recent strange fires are the product of a serpent that actually lives in the fire. Chris Andrews(Sandrine Holt)is a female government agent assigned to take charge of an investigation. She temporarily sides with an agent from Washington named Cooke, that seems to have had dealings with Fallon in the past. It is obvious that the serpent needs to be destroyed before it destroys mankind. This quirky film can't be taken seriously, though it will remind you to check your fire insurance. If you happen to have an innocent fetish with fire...this is your flick.
