    Evolution

    This movie was a real surprise. I expected to laugh a little but, was suprised to find myself laughing quite often, and extremely hard at times.

    While the story was reaching (I mean, really reaching in a lot of spots), it was very entertaining. I never felt it was meant to be anything more, than a good chance to let your hair down and enjoy disbelief.

    The DVD is easily reference quality. Both video and audio are superb.

    I even thought the actors had great chemistry between them. Which gave the on screen action, the proper balance through out the film.

    Worth a look IMO!

    John,
    I did a review on this a few weeks ago, I believe I titled it Alienbusters. This is the guy who brought us Ghostbusters and there were similiarities in Evolution. You know, group of ordinary guys(and gals) taking on the big evil ghost( aliens) thing. Thing is, you could see everyone was having a fun time making this film, and Duchovny doing comedy is a blast. Then take a beautiful dramatic actress (Julianne Moore) and make her a klutz scientist , stir in a heaping spoonful of Orlando Jones and you can't help but laugh. Note also that the director, Ivan Reitman, also brought in one of his Ghostbusters alumni (Dan Aykroyd) and cast him as the Governor of Arizona.
    I really enjoyed this movie and have watched it twice so far.

      George, I truly apologize! I thought that I saw a thread for this movie before, but could not put my finger on where it was. They say the mind is the first thing to go!!! :B

      I am glad you also enjoyed this one. It is deserving of cult status imo. And you are correct, it is a new gen Ghostbusters. I'm going to add this to my collection.
