Precious Find (1996)

Well, Hauer and Chen has done better acting but I really think we need movies like this. I kind of liked the movie because it still has a story to tell despite bad directing and low budget. The first thing that struck me was the bad effect's in the opening scenes but then I saw that it was computer generated graphics and not CGI in a time when Windows 95 was the hottest OS. So I can overlook that. The movie has a few good unexpected twists but it's an all Hollywood movie so the end is highly predictable.Inspite of all the bad things I had a good time watching this movie on DVD and I can recommend you to rent it or even buy it because it's an old movie and the price is really low. I bought the DVD and I will watch it a few times again.

Director Phillipe Mora is known, at least within the circle of serious movie audience, for his lack of talent so the low quality of this movie was no suprise to me. The movie was to say the least - naive. I personally am not a SF fan, but I can respect a properly made film in any genre. However, I find movies like these truely insulting. Forgive me if You're a Mora fan, but this, as I would like to call it, warning was ment for those who aren't and for those don't know anything about him. Rutger Hauer is a very tricky actor. Whenever I see his name in a credit block of a movie, I can't tell if it'll be a good one or the worst ever. So, if You like Rutger, better watch him in one of those good films where he's at his best and you can calmly skip this one.

well i know i have seen them all now! , can anyone tell me why the space station has a pick-up truck in it on a ranch and what the hell that alein worm was that u never here of again ? was it left over from another set or something???????? i dont know what to think all kinds of stuff like that , but!!! i am thinking ,is this film made to be serious? thats the question ,cause if it was made to be like not stupid then the whole movie is undoubtably a peice of junk its got all the 2 dollar speical affects , crappy everything i think they lost the space station half way through so they replaced it with a ranch i mean u got to take your hat off to the crew , talk about not caring about there jobs or the movie,,,,,BUT if it is like made to be a peice of junk funny crap thing like plan 9 thing then it is undoubtably genius i mean it would be so hard to make a movie so crap it BECOMES !!good so i give it about a 3/10 u have to see it to believe it ,just make sure u dont except much in the way of science fiction , SO if u want to see a movie about Ninja Card playing gold miners who ride around in pick-up trucks on space stations then this movie is for U!!

As a devoted fan of Rutger Hauer I've seen some crappy productions. This, a remake of a western in a sci-fi setting, tops them all. Can anybody tell me why asteroids have an atmosphere and why you would use a pick-ax when you go there by spaceship?
