02/19/2014 A hard drive with 20 gigs! That's so much more than 9.6! This laughably dated supernatural flick dabbles in existentialism and eschatology, but excels in sappiness and boredom. Disappointing movie considering it is directed by Gordon Chan and stars Wong and Lau. See more 04/23/2009 +1/2 star because Michelle Reis is hot. The rest of the movie is really bad. A mix of forensic crime drama and B movie Apocalyptic horror. I didn't like the characters and the story seemed thrown together. This movie might have just been released to keep up with all of the other "End of the World" movies during that time period. See more 07/31/2008 Increasingly silly story about the world ending one scientist at a time. Not worth much time or thought. See more 07/31/2008 Were the 90's really that bad or am I just blurred by nostalgia? This movie was pretty bad, besides just the slow pacing the plot made very little sense about God and judgment day. I was hoping for more of a conspiracy theory type of thriller but was pretty let down with the actual execution of the plot. Andy Lau, Anthony Wong, and Michelle Reis are all looking very youthful in this film though! Overall avoid this film which just felt like a bad "B" Movie with the cheesy special effects topping off the zany plot and drawn out story. See more 06/27/2008 Interesting action/ sci-fi/philosophy hybrid from Hong Kong. See more 09/22/2007 one of the best films i've ever seen See more Read all reviews
