Reviews

  • "Efilmcritic": The first half is very good, then the thriller would be silly. The underrated Biehn offers an excellent representation.
  • " Film Lexicon of TV Spielfilm ": "Utopian Thriller. Bizarre and illogical, but also exciting "
  • "Haikos Filmlexikon": "Pretty thin, bad, boring work without special effects."
  • Lexicon of international film : “A mixture of science fiction film and political thriller produced with some effort, which makes considerable demands on good faith. Sufficiently exciting thanks to solidly staged action scenes. "
