Product Overview

In a screen industry that largely shuns big-budget genre films, Luke Sparke's science fiction sequel is a rarity: an Australian production that attempts to follow the path of the Hollywood action blockbusters that dominate the box office. As David Michael Brown contends, the film's special effects and set pieces are nothing to sneeze at, but eliciting enthusiasm from local audiences remains a significant challenge.
