♥♥♥♥♥ |
A waste of time, talent, and money.
|
The movie begins slowly, and plods all the way until the hokey ending. It's not a complete rip-off of a single film, but a rather predictible cobbling-together of a number of tired plot devices from 'Rosemary's Baby', 'The Devil's Advocate', 'The Omen', etc.
Pretty much the whole movie consists of blue-filtered shots of Charlize wandering around and being frightened by sudden appearances from her sneaky and unnecessarily ominous husband, interspersed with reminders that that she's pregnant with her possessed spouse's evil alien twins.
In the end, Charlize's character electrocutes her husband by flooding their apartment and then plugging in a submerged radio when he's standing in the puddle, yet in the next scene is shown remarried and living happily as a possessed housewife raising the two evil alien twins. How she managed to avoid being placed in custody after murdering her husband eludes me.
Did I mention that the whole ordeal was pointless, since the alien just left the husband's dead body and possessed her anyway? When you can transform into a pusling amalgam of tentacular energy and possess people at will, what's the point of inhabiting Johnny Depp and having him stalk around an apartment, spooking his wife, before being barbecued? Staving off boredom, I guess.
Do yourself a favor and get something else.
