Millennium (1989)

One of the worst movies I've seen in a really long time. Shockingly bad. Boring. And it's one of those time travel movies that has so many loopholes and inconsistencies and what-ifs that it makes you not care about it at all. There's a cute girl in it and a robot that zips one-liners...those are the only two redeeming factors. The pacing is awful, the plot is non-existent. The worst part about this movie though...the part that is totally unforgivable...is that you watch half the movie and then what happens...no kidding...it winds itself up again and starts allllllllllll over. It starts from the very beginning midway through. Unbelievable. The audacity!Here's my question - Who cares? Who gives a damn? I sure don't. Avoid at all costs. There is no reason to see this movie, ever. It sucks. 1/10 but deserves 0/10.

This movie is put the final nails in the coffins for Cheryl Ladd and Kris Kristofferson. It is one of those scifi movies from the 80's that was supposed to be serious but now 28 years later it is a comedy. The green screen effects are humorous and the dialog even more so. It might be good for a single viewing but wanting to watch this more than once in your life means you need to be on some meds. It's terrible. Terrible acting. Terrible directing. Terrible script. 100% terrible. Awful. Seriously awful. It's terrible. Terrible acting. Terrible directing. Terrible script. 100% terrible. Awful. Seriously awful. It's terrible. Terrible acting. Terrible directing. Terrible script. 100% terrible. Awful. Seriously awful.

I only give it a 7 because the premise is so great: Air crash victims are replaced by exact replica "dummies" seconds before horrific airplane disasters. Why? By whom? For what reason? This makes a compelling 1/2 a movie as Kris Kristofferson struggles to make sense of it all. Cheryl Ladd plays a mystery woman, who smokes incessantly, that shadows him. It turns out that she is from the future and the still alive "victims" are snatched microseconds before the actual "crash" to repopulate a barren Earth where humans can't procreate. In the 2nd half of the movie, it falls apart, somewhat. The "future" has cheap-looking sets, and some unintentionally humorous dialog. Why did this happen? I suspect that they ran out of money and had to finish the film quickly and cheaply. Main plot faults: 1. Why encourage smoking (to kill people) when they are trying to repopulate Earth? 2. How could a simple "paradox" destroy the"timeline"? 3. Several minutes in the 2nd half are tediously repetitious as the precious "timeline" must be changed. 4. There is limited "nudity", in the "Adam & Eve" scene at the film's end (this was replaced with a sunrise for broadcast TV distribution.)A B-grade Canadian production; but better science fiction. Since nobody saw this movie, it is a prime-candidate for a Hollywood or cable remake.

This 20 year old is one of my all time Sci-Fi faves. First it has Cheryl Ladd at her most beautiful. Kris Kristofferson as a love interest. Time-Travel laid out in a fascinating manner. An adorable robot person. Daniel Travanti as a foil. Incredible transport of about to crash airliners to the future in order to save the folks and repopulate the Earth at an earlier time. Am amazed that this movie is classified by many as a "B" movie. The plot involves the entire lifetime of Kris's character and it is just wonderful how it pans out. Unfortunately its name will stand out less because of so many titles using the same. This one is VERY COOL!
