Eric L The acting is generally good and the plot follows a relatively solid and logical progression. The sci-fi of the film I found very good. The technology seemed very plausible if viewed from the time frame the film was produced in. This really helped integrate with the mystery of the movie. The main character had a very credible and understandable goal. If you accept that terror and not getting caught as part of his plan the effort put into the implementation seems plausible. Overall I did enjoy the movie. The notable exception was the ridiculous and forced way they got rid of the technology near the end to, presumably, tie up any loose ends. I'd say its better than most of the Sci-Fi produced today (2025 as of this writing). If you like Sci-Fi and can accept some of the campy acting from the period you will most likely enjoy this movie. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/23/25 Full Review Daniel C. M Inferior to Human Vapour, though still a very good and entertaining watch. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/11/24 Full Review Read all reviews
