Blucher One of the worst movies I've ever seen

Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Clarissa Mora The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

TBJCSKCNRRQTreviews It's after a war between two factions that are not mentioned again(so don't worry about remembering their names), and the Magellan, a new spacecraft is on a mission so secret that it's apparently not known to even Captain Badass(Wes Studi... and no, that isn't really what he's called, but it is what he's good at being). When they're attacked by a Black Hole Fart, that kills... some... people... yeah, it's not properly established, and it's not the only thing in this. Anyway, they stand no chance, so they activate the hufrgmh in their craft, which transports them... somewhere, sometime, to the titular Ice Planet. If this sounded confusing, that's just the beginning. This hardly explains *anything* at all. Mostly, when it tries, it just raises more questions(someone call Hermes). Maybe it's trying to outdo Lost. And this, by the way, is a failed TV pilot. How they figured this would successfully launch anything other than the audience from their seats, I have no idea. It doesn't draw you in. Heck, the first dozen or so minutes, this shows these fragments of scenes that are supposed to, I guess, establish characters, environment and technology, and do none of the above, as they are so short and full of new stimuli that we don't know who, what, where or when before it moves on to the next one. FX vary between being so poor that you can't tell what's going on(that giant cloud? It attacks with strobe-lighting... does it hurt anyone? Dunno, you'll have to ask that guy trying to swallow his tongue whilst bathed in a green glow, as the budget evidently didn't allow to *show* if it does or not), and being fine. We do get a brief, kinda cool action sequence near the end of the 80 minute running time, featuring the Interceptors that Protoss Carriers use. Acting is poor. Armor and props in general tend to look goofy. Sets are decent. This has no ending, and with the TV series still not in production after nearly a decade... yeah. There is a little bloody, disturbing and violent content in this. I recommend this to those who gotta see for themselves how confused it is. 1/10

Dorian_Hawkmoon ........I did however research it with CHUM, Scifi, and other companies involved in this new show. Yes, they were all happy and excited, no surprise there then they have to be, after all it's there money not mine... not yet anyway. I've watched the trailer, I've read the press releases and so on.What did I learn about "Ice Planet - 2001"? It was a pilot for an intended new show that is now in production and is to air later this year in the UK on the Sci-Fi channel and Canada.The bits I've seen (as they are) are few and would amount for about 40-50 mins of the film. So about half of the film. The bits show some great CGI, some nasty bad guys that you never really meet, so they are presented in a dark fashion. I was reminded of the "Shadows" in B5. The science is not to fantastic, say like ST:TNG, so is more believable than some shows.The story, now this is an fun point, there are simply hundreds of hints, and comments through out, (the half of the film I've seen) the show seems to want to want to explore the "Why are we here"? and a little like SG1 opens up a door to the possibility to human kind being a old race that can be found all over the universe. Now thats not a bad story, has it been done before, yes it has but was it done in this way, no not like this, will it work, only time will tell.The cast is to be completely change, and will now include Michael Ironside as Commander Trager. So we have a "Hard man" playing a hard man role, thats not bad , what about other actors, well nothing has been announced, so we will have to see.As I read the messages, the acting and the ending are the bits that make people angry. Well to answer the acting, new unknown people trying to break into the Lime light, more effort is needed. Wes Studi was Commander Trager, who is Wes? We all loved him in "Last of the Mohican's", so a complete change of story for him then! I'd like to see him in the new show, maybe he could play as the character Blade, he would work well in that role. In all not bad for a crew of almost completely new people. 5/10The CGI, is clean, neat and fast, no joins unlike some shows actually on air today! Now to the ending ..... um...... shame on you guys, the ending works, it is supposed to throw you out the window ..... it is only confusing if you didn't follow the story, you need to note the hints that odd comment mentioned as you were watching...guys I could see it without watching the whole film. What on earth were you doing? Anyone that watched Matrix, picked up on such bits and pieces, I was able to do that here and I only watched bits. Go figure!It looks like it wants to be a complex story that is being told in a simple manner, whats not to understand here? In all this promises to be a clean, maybe a very clever show.I've given this film an eight, good idea for a story, great CGI, the writers are aware of where they want to go, unlike some writers for shows that are on air today....."An edit: I watched the film in full (I brought the DVD) the story is nice even clever. It's not to clear about what the reasons are for the situation, a planned aspect of the story telling that does let it down. Best advice I can offer you is not to place this pilot on the same shelf as the new upcoming TV series. Put it lower, save space for the 2006/7 version on the upper shelf!!"

zpook I viewed this last night and it was simply a horrific script, direction, budget and acting. There was almost nothing original in the script, it seemed to take old ideas from about 3 generations of Star Trek and was utterly confusing. It appears by the ending that it was supposed to be a pilot for a continuing series but I don't think any networks would take this up. It could have been promising since the only thing really going for it were the CGI action sequences but the acting was sooo bad that it destroyed the film. The worst actor was the commander. His entire crew were close behind. I'd like to say something positive but I can't. The plot? Basically the earth, and all it's outstations/colonies are under attack by an alien race. They can destroy worlds and earth has nothing that can stop it (kind of like the planet eater in the original star trek or star trek the movie (i think #2 or 3, the one with the dolphins!!). The script had potential right there but tanked from that point forward.

Fahrenheitz Oh my God! I have never seen anything like this before. The actors are the best thing about this movie - and they perform like high school kids on too much caffeine. The plot is quaint and dosn't really lead anywhere. The whole movie progresses slowly with lots of pointless chit chat and keeps feeding the viewer with questions without ever providing any answers. Big parts of the story makes no sense and seem to be there only to show off special effects - which BTW would seem outdated 15 years ago. This movie is a complete and utter waste of time!
