DNA Audience Reviews

FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
Staci Frederick Blistering performances.
Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
cmv32261 Mixes action, suspense, horror, and romance together (precise order is irrelevant) in a hilarious stew. That would be perfect if I was watching a comedy, but the writer's spun it as a serious Sci-Fi movie, not some cheesy flick, Forbidden Planet was far more realistic and it was a B-Movie. Taking elements from Jurassic Park, only in as much that the creature tore everyone apart with it's claws and teeth, Predator, again only because it could make itself invisible and had infrared vision, head looked somewhat like that of the Alien creature. The 1 scene where the CIA doctor's camera keeps flashing pictures driving the creature bonkers, why did they not just use strobe lights and while it was disoriented shoot darts with a sedative into it, high dose of some type of sedative. Does anyone buy it would have taken the CIA clean up team that long to arrive, come on now even for fiction that is difficult to believe. I feel compelled to let anyone who reviews this review, caught this movie on NETFLIX, sometime within the past 2 wks. I spoke to 1 of their CSRs reminding her that I canceled my streaming, free membership promotion with LG Smart TV ends in late November, service will continue until then. I told her that their movies cannot in any way ever be referred to as new releases, their movies are poorly written and directed, all around lousy quality. CSR had the nerve to tell me that most of the movies they have available for streaming are usually available through them before buying or rental, sure if 1 is referring to prior mentioned quality straight to TV, or DVD movies, TV 9 times out of ten you can bet your bottom dollar it was a SyFy Channel original.
Vomitron_G Well, since I watched this movie for the third time, I must like this rubbish, no? Damn right I do! This is one pretty bad PREDATOR rip-off. Actually, this movie borrows so many elements from so many other movies, you can't even bother beginning to count them. Jürgen Prochnow looks like he's on cocaine or something, over-acting every line he speaks intensely. He looks pretty insane as the mad scientist with no conscience or morality. Mark Dacascos plays a doctor (haha!) who suddenly turns into Rambo (hoho!) or (more appropriate) into Major Alan"Dutch"Schaeffer (hihi!). The special effects are hilarious (that helicopter crash!!!) and the monster-suit is cool (with red & green colors). Of course it looks extremely rubbery. Plus: that annoying native kid gets killed! Way to go scriptwriter! So yes, this is rubbish, but of the enjoyable kind!
sionyn This film is a nothing more than series of rip off moments from other, better films. It's a mash of Predator, Aliens, Terminator 2, Species, amongst others. To be fair it doesn't try to hide it's 'influences', but when they are performed so badly it's hard to forgive. The actors all try to keep a straight face, especially Mark Dacascos. It's a shame the rest of the crew didn't seem to be bothered about making a good movie. Obviously the budget was low, so low the studio couldn't afford an original screenplay. Watch only for the unintentional comedy, such as the laughable helicopter crash and the blatant theft of an entire scene from Terminator 2!!
maffelu This is the most crappy film I've seen in a long time. The bones of a creature is found in a jungle and they turned in to a creature of malice(I can't remember how, the movies was so bad). The creature starts killing people. The visuals of the monster is a history of it's own. Sometimes it's a man in a costume, sometimes it's animated. The differance is like the one between a wookie and a fish. The special effects are... hard to describe without crying. They are horrible. Some events in the movie are just odd, like when a grenadelauncher, or some sort of big mega gun is thrown in the water and floats ashore.I'd say you should see the movie though, just to get a laughter. We laught/cried in the end, we had rented it for some money, and, well...
