DrPostman Review of The Black Hole

The Black Hole (2006 TV Movie)

Black Holes, Bad Actors and a Monster! Oh my!

[1/10 · 12 June 2006]

Lets put aside the bad acting, that comes with the SciFi territory. Lets put aside the bad science with a black hole forming for no damned good reason. Lets put aside that Nelson's character is searching for the cause of the trouble by asking what the atmospheric conditions were AFTER the black hole showed up. Lets put aside the fact that he warns them not to drop a nuke on something that sucks energy and could cause it to move elsewhere and make it bigger, and in spite of that they keep constantly claiming that they need to nuke the thing. Lets put aside the sad attempt at a side story on the director who is sick and gets trapped inside the collapsing building. Lets put aside the lame attempt at a subplot of romance that they never take any time developing. And last but not least, lets put aside the notion of a monster that goes through a black hole just so it can run along power lines, is smart enough to take a trap and throw it at the soldiers trying to trap it, but is too stupid to avoid getting on the back of a generator truck heading back towards the black hole. Now that we have put all that aside I can tell you all about the movie in one sentence. It sucked hard. Wow, what a stinker. I wanted my money back and I didn't even pay to see it!
