Annihilation Earth (2009 TV Movie)
2/10
Annihilation -- bad screenplay, bad acting, bad science, bad film
13 December 2009
Warning: Spoilers
One extra star is for an ending that puts this wretched group of actors out of their misery.

Marina Sirtis' attempt at a southern accent was as bad as Andie McDowell's attempt at a British accent in one of her early films. It was completely unnecessary to the plot and was a terrible distraction that highlighted the overall poor level of talent in this truly awful film.

The characters talk about high levels of radiation but enter the radioactive zone with no ill effects. Characters drive around the countryside for no reason than to fill space in the empty storyline.

Syfy (formerly Scifi) has offered some superior series (Battlestar Galactica, Eureka, Stargate, etc.) but always seems to fall short on the films produced for them.

A film can overcome a modest budget and limited special effects with a good story and good acting. This film provides nothing of value.
