Anyone seen this?

Set in space, I guess, so probably fodder for this forum.

And it has Guy Pearce in it, in (I'd imagine) a somewhat less cerebral role than any appearance in the forthcoming Prometheus

Reviews are so-so, sounds pretty formulaic.

If you like bad acting, horrible dialog, cliche one liners, big plot holes, groan inducing moments that you were supposed to cheer for, cliche villains, super predictable plot.... This one's for you.

The trailer is misleading. Other than the space sequences (which have nothing spacey about them), this is just your everyday "save the daughter of the president" TV episode.

This is a movie that really needs boobies as a redeeming quality.

Succinct review.

I guess I'll wait until it's on TV smile

Ugh! what a bummer. I will patiently wait to see Pearce in Prometheus.
