AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
Plustown A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.
Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
Walter Sloane Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.
GL84 After creating a bio-engineered woman from alien DNA gathered from previous generations, one of her creators sets out to protect her from another genetically-created mutation intent on using her to create a purer race of creatures.A not-all-that-bad sci-fi entry that wisely decides to turn into a T&A fest to hide the fact that all it's real good parts are stuffed into the ending. Since the film spends a large amount of time dealing with the biology of the girl and what they can do to make it viable in further tests, with only the occasional interaction otherwise shoehorned into the film to keep us from getting bored, it does give off it's hand that there's not a whole lot going on here during these parts save for the nudity. When it introduces it's other main threat in the other alien, it gets a lot more interesting due to a lot more action elements being brought in, which makes for some good times to be had when it relies on it's stalking, chasing and brawling with the two creatures, oftentimes in full alien garb so it looks even more impressive. Otherwise, this one was just a decent-enough entry.Rated UR/R: Continuous Full Nudity, Graphic Violence, Graphic Language, several Sex Scenes and an alien Rape Scene
Ryki Bloom Now, this is a movie where the horror factor becomes friendly. Species was a great start for a wonderful franchise. Species provided a horrific sexual sensation in the crowd. Species II followed the first movie's path but ended badly. But, still, it had the horror factor set in place. The Species Franchise could of been so much better if the 2nd installment was never created. Now, back to the juicy Species III. Species III again turned the franchise friendly and cutsie. No, not literally, but it doesn't provide the viewers with enough gore and sex scenes. The plot had holes the size of basketballs - everything was horrible. BUT... Considering that the franchise was ruined in Species II, Species III is my favorite thus far(I mean sequel, Species will remain the best and far-most perfect). It's a bit better than Species II and follows the crappy plot line(which, most sequels are suppose to) of the Franchise unlike Species IV.This franchise can be made better; after all, everyone wants to see Natasha naked again...so... why-not remake Species II and III? Haha, wouldn't everyone love that.
Boba_Fett1138 This movie can be divided in different parts. It's first halve Dr. Abbot's 'brilliant' research, while its second halve is more about Dean and its action and science-fiction elements. Not that either halve of the movie impresses much though. Besides, the fact that the two halves of the movie differ so much from each other and don't quite connect well enough, don't make the movie any better.It's the second sequel in the Species-series and even though they have learned from their mistakes from the previous Species sequel, it still isn't a better movie. The alien is a female again and the movie features less of Natasha Henstridge, who added very little to the previous sequel. On the other hand it's lacking the characters and certainly the fine actors of the previous 2 Species movies.The acting is really one of the biggest problems of this movie. It's simply below par and besides most actors seem to be miscast in their roles. Sunny Mabrey is a boring alien, who certainly isn't being seductive enough, even though that's basically the only point of her entire character.Its story is also quite poor. It's a quite ridicules one that makes less and less sense, the more you start to think about it. I mean why would a doctor/school teacher put himself in so much danger by abducting an alien from the military, just so he can do his own private research on her, in order to be able to breed a new super-race that's immune of all deceases. He also drags in one of his students. Sounds like a real wacko but his character is yet a serious one. And we are supposed to care for this character? All other characters are not much better or more interesting really.The movie as a whole is not just that interesting to watch, since it's very little special, that adds nothing new to the genre or the Species movie-series. There even is a part four. Really makes you wonder why though.The movie is not bad looking and it doesn't feature some good effects and stuff like that but it's nothing that we haven't already seen before in any of the other previous Species movies. It makes the movie in that regard also not very special to watch.Just skip it.4/10http://bobafett1138.blogspot.com/
Scarecrow-88 Female, birthed from Henstridge's alien and the alien DNA infected astronaut from the previous film, is close to the most perfect hybrid whose eggs might lend an answer to how to cease the dying half-breed alien species. The half-alien/half-human species, created when the astronaut impregnated human women, have flaws in their DNA and succumb to illnesses and sickness due to their low immunity. Dr. Abbot(Robert Knepper)kidnaps "Sara"(Sunny Mabrey), posing as a soldier in the military, before a half-breed could get her. Abbot is a professor who sees the Nobel Prize in the future if he finds the answer to the perfect half-breed species, devoid of the current flaws plaguing them now. He seeks assistance from a gifted student, Dean(Robin Dunne), to help him in collecting data and perfecting their experiments on Sara. Meanwhile, Sara, who has grown to a young, luscious, sexual creature from an infant in a manner of days, seeks a mate, finding none that are worthy of her impregnation due to their sickness. Abbot and Dean always remain in danger as the lethal half-breeds continue their pursuit of Sara and a cure.As with most second sequels and beyond, the premise of the half-breed female sexpot aliens is wearing thin despite rampant nudity by stunningly gorgeous naked bodies. While some of the f/x are effective(..such as Henstridge's giving birth to infant Sara, subsequently strangled by a half-breed alien boy's tongue in the truck with her;a man is split in half by an alien Sara's tongue;some cool disease-riddled aliens in human form showing nasty flesh wounds developing), the budget has certainly dwindled somewhat when compared to the other films...such as when Sara murders the college dean which isn't the least bit convincing. Also, the story is smaller scale, removed from the governmental/national/global aspects which enriched the apocalyptic terror, instead taking place almost completely within a university town where college kids reside...sure, in dialogue that global terror exists, but in this film, the setting is confined in one significant area. Leads Dunne and Knepper are okay enough, and Mabrey is a babe. Yet, compared to Henstridge, who is almost irreplaceable as the incredibly sexy alien from the previous two installments, Mabrey is also smaller scale. As a sequel to an okay franchise, I have seen worse. And, we at least get to see the alien creature designs again, even if there few and far between.
