    It was an excellent movie! It is definately not your typical sci-fi movie. It hits on some very serious social issues that plauge mankind today yet does not shove them in your face in an obscene manner. It is there and it makes you feel awfull. One of the most powerfull movies I have ever seen. It is the second most powerfull in the sci-fi genre, losing to Enemy Mine in a very close race.

    Considering the seriously low budget, reportedly 30 million, for a sci-fi flick, I think that they did an excellent job with the special effects.

    The main actor did an excellent job I will not go any further into the movie in fear if hinting to things that happened. Just know that you should not expect your typicall sci-fi movie and that you should not walk out on it.

    Yes spill.com gave it the better than sex rating. So it looks promising.

    Trust me there is some very special explosions within the movie, but it is not the most action packed movie ever. It will leave you thinking and wanting more. That is about all I can say

    It all takes place in Johannesburg SA. I would dare say that a majority of the actors are from there or Britian.

    Most of the actors are South African with the exception of the American head of MNU who is American.

    Very good movie. Great special effects, great acting. Some very impressive action sequences. It brings up some political/moral issues to think about, but it dosen't shove them down your throat.

    Yes, its in Nigeria or South Africa or someplace like that.
    Most of the important characters are British (Historically the British settled there, so there is a suprising number of whites living in southern Africa)
