Watch The Void For Free

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

This is the worst movie EVER... just looking at the cover, and then watching the film, there's no black hole devouring cities as the cover would have you believe, no fancy special effects... in fact, the only suspenseful part is at the VERY END.. for like 10 minutes, and that's it... the rest is just boring drama leading up to the climax, if you can even call it a climax... the damn hole doesn't get any bigger than a foot or two before cheesy computer graphics are done to show an obvious 'model view' from afar. I NEVER write reviews but i just felt like I had to on this one, PLEASE don't watch it, it is a COMPLETE waste of time (unless you are trying to throw away your precious time, in which case, go for it--just bring a vomit bag, you'll need it for the end part).

This is not great. There is some science, some running around, a little romance and it is all very predictibull. The CGI is OK but looks pretty cheap. The sound is serviceable. The lighting and cinematography for the most part consists of bland offices and bright service areas. The acting is good TV acting in the way you do not believe these people are really anything other than actors getting paid. The general idea of the film is not great. It is basically a film speculating on media fears about the Large Hadron Collider at CERN creating a mini black hole and destroying the earth. All the characters are paper thin so it is very difficult to get any real drama out of the story. It was cheapish but I think it could have easily been done a lot better. At one point the disaster of a black hole exploding was explained as being like adding too much soap to the washing machine followed by "We've all done that." I don't know call me a hard reviewer but I think they could have tried harder - Overall I give it a 4.

The void here was in the story. Decent cinematography and nice locations give this film a much-needed boost. I love both Paul and Tapping, but this was not their best work. ****SPOILER****An engineer (Paul) and a physicist (Tapping), both instructors at a local university, must stop a mad scientist (McDowell) from performing an experiment which is likely to destroy the whole world. The experiment was performed once, and the world didn't end, but this time...look out. I know what you're thinking: 'Malcolm McDowell as the bad guy? Get out!' (and did you know his daddy was a damned dirty ape?) The script was not bad and the acting and dialog was fairly good, this film just didn't feel right somehow. Maybe it was the inane plot twists?

The idea of this movie is quite interesting, but nothing is really done with it. The title leads one to expect some sort of a disaster or horror type movie, and it doesn't really deliver. What the film does do is showcase the talents of two very underrated stars, namely Adrian Paul (of Highlander: The Series fame) and Amanda Tapping (of Stargate SG-1). Adrian Paul gets to play a mortal character this time, and it takes something of a mental adjustment knowing that he could get hurt or even die. Amanda Tapping's character is very close to her Stargate SG-1 character (she's a nuclear physicist or something like that), but she displays a vulnerability that isn't inherent in her role as Samantha Carter in Stargate SG-1. All in all, the plot of the movie isn't very interesting (even with Malcolm MacDowell as the bad guy), but it's worth watching if you're a fan of one of the stars.
