Supernova (2000)

should be zero stars

This is possibly the worst movie I've ever seen. I don't know where to begin. I am a regular movie watcher yet somehow this one slipped by me. I was anxious to try out the new amazon unbox to download movies directly to Tivo and this one was on special for 99 cents. Note to self. There's a REALLY, REALLY good reason this was 99 cents. Like I said, quite possibly the worst movie EVER. June 7, 2008

Good enough Sci Fi thriller

I can't add much to the reviews that found the movie missing "something", because it doesn't really flow, and yet, in a way that works for this movie. It's enjoyable, the effects are really good and though there is no "message" at the end, it's a good time without going over the edge.

The story could have been fleshed out better and some things explained better or deleted, but it's watchable for what it is. A B-movie Sci Fi thriller. April 6, 2008

The worst movie ever.

I've seen lots of bad movies in my life. Sometimes these bad movies are kindof fun, like the recent Doomsday; other times they're just horrifyingly lame, like Wing Commander or Dungeons & Dragons; and then there's the epicly bad movies, like Waterworld. But this movie... this movie was worse. It was amazing, watching actors I cared about (Robin Tunney, Angela Bassett) do a fairly good job, and still not save the the movie. The plot, the concepts, the visual effects, the sound mixing - rarely do I even notice this! - they all add up to something worse, and more boring, than one can truly imagine.

Worse than Blair Witch 2, than anything by Roger Corman, than... well, anything, period. This movie is one for the ages. Avoid. April 4, 2008

I own this movie and I love it.

I love this film and I really don't care if others have a problem with that. The special effects were out of this world, pardon the pun and James Spader was excellent. Loved his intensity and his soft side that he seem to reserve only for the woman in his life. Beautiful. The dialogue was a bit much and at times I had to really listen to get the message but then it's sci-fi, it takes imagination that's the whole idea.
I did feel that the main characters relationship should have been fleshed out more,(eww, another pun). I would have loved to see just one real kiss from these two (no problem with lighting for the Tunney's character or kissing when she got hers) but then we're talking about a 22th century IR relationship filmed in the 21st century. We are still not there yet, folks. But they are which is uplifting in itself.
The ending was wonderful and if this movie had made more money (say break even) we may have seen their daughter break some alien arse. Anyway, I loved this movie and wish there were more like it. But alas we have not evolved far enough yet. March 5, 2008

The plot is nothing. The special effects are below par. There's nothing interesting in this movie.
