Countryshacks' review should be taken with a grain of salt. This version was a made for TV version, and was not released in theaters. I don't know about countryshack, but I don't expect the same level of effects out of a made for TV movie that I expect out of a full blown Hollywood production. The budgets are no where near the same.
I found the movie fairly enjoyable, the effects pretty much on par with what I'd expect. The story is a bit soap operaish as countryshack stated. I wonder if countryshack thought he was taping a prerelease of the Brendan Fraser movie by the same name that was released later that year, and would have been heavily promoted about that time.
