For 13 euros c"mon!this is an underrated sci fi, i need to see live pics though and all artwork before committing
Any idea if this will be region free?
Your memory isn't faulty...It's not a very good movie. BUT, it does have some incredible visual setpieces.didnt like the movie, but maybe I should give this movie a second chance

Dated? Most of the impressive visuals are practical effects, not CGI. The throne room sequence was done with just manipulation of fabric and wind machines! Still looks cool. It's just the script that sucks...and J. Lopez's non acting.Don't bother, thought the same thing and saw it recently, didn't make it to the end and the visuals are looking dated now too.

O.k, I see your point. It does have a 1999 aesthetic. And it is not too hard to spot that it is the first film by a guy who cut his teeth on MTV music videos (Relying on the visuals to carry more weight than narrative and script).What I mean is that the visuals have not aged well, for example I watched Mississipie Burning the other day and it looks like it could have been made recently while The Cell looks like it was made 16 years odd years ago.
