      Audience Member 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. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member +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. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Increasingly silly story about the world ending one scientist at a time. Not worth much time or thought. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member 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. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Interesting action/ sci-fi/philosophy hybrid from Hong Kong. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member one of the best films i've ever seen Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
