This movie deserves some credit... the special effects were amazing, and good use is made of them. Unfortunately, though, there is a very thin plot behind it that culminates in a lengthy and predictable finish. For a film that could have accomplished so much more, the storyline was a big disappointment. I found myself caring very little about the poorly developed "good guy" characters and rooting for Kevin Bacon to kill them off. In short, if you want to see this movie, I would recommend waiting for it to be a cheap rental... at least then you can rewind it to watch the cool parts again (:
