"Everton is the dominant species. I am Everton." Despite the presence of James Cameron's long-time producing partner Gale Anne Hurd, Virus is a far cry from the likes of The Terminator and The Abyss. Whereas those movies were cerebral sci-fi with a hint of action, this 1999 blockbuster is just a dumb action film, using a nifty concept to craft a straight-ahead action fiesta without even a hint of... read more

To be honest, I wasn’t expecting much from this movie but since I'm a big fan of Donald Sutherland, I thought I might as well check it out. The main problem with Sutherland is that even though he has always been a fine actor, at least half of his movies were actually pretty much garbage, especially the ones he made in the 80’s and the 90’s and this movie was a fine example. In fact, I read s... read more

Maybe the movie does not reach for his dash and his story the best reviews but like the race of Gemini, the aliens do not tend to manifest in the flesh, or metal to be tangible, can be pure energy in space , looking for a place to live, ie are versatile and survivors, remember that humans 1) an electromagnetic pulse and leave us in the stone age without being able to defend ourselves, 2) a virus t... read more

" When the salvage tug Sea Star is caught in a violent storm, the crew takes refuge on another ship. The seemingly deserted ship turns out to be a Russian research vessel. The Sea Star crew soon find that they are not alone and learn the horrible fate of the original crew. Based on the comic book of the same name, it’s considered to be one of the worst films of the year, and apparently Jamie Lee Curtis doesn’t particularly love the film either."

"25.7. (Netflix) William Baldwin ja Jamie Lee Curtis menevät venäläiselle laivalle, jossa on ulkoavaruudesta tullut virus, joka ottaa koneet haltuunsa. Donald Sutherlandia kiinnostaa vain raha, joka on selkeästi fakta tässä fiktiossa."

"Kauheeta paskaa, muttei aivan täyttä sellaista ja ihan hauskaa. Digitaalitehosteiden alhaisesta käyttöasteesta plussaa, samoin Donald Sutherlandin hällä väliä -asenteesta roolissaan. Miksi vitussa Jamie Lee Curtis on edes joskus ollut edes jonkin asteinen tähti? Muijan karisma on jossain talouspaperin ja kaurapuuron välimaastossa.(vhs 15.4)"

"16.1, Netflix William Baldwinilta puuttuu kyllä täysin sankarin karisma, ja Jamie Lee Curtis on myös melkoisen tympeä valinta naispääosaan. Muutenhan tämä on perinteistä aikansa scifi-kauhu-toimintaa niin hyvässä kuin pahassa. Donald Sutherlandin välinpitämätön asenne laivan kapteenina on iso plussa koko touhuun. "
