Review:
I could see this is the first try that the production team had at a film project.. at least of this proportion and magnitude. Lets admit it that the film suffered from many problems... 1. acting was bad mostly (although some actors did quite well)... 2. cgi was very low budget (but had some good ideas conceptually)... 3. story was all over the place (they went for too much stuff instead of keeping it consistent), 4. editing was choppy and didnt flow well... and 5. the science was bad (but had some intetesting ideas like the water absorbing crystal which could revolutionize weight requirements for space travel)
On the positive side... the protagonist had some good fighting choreography and watching Omi Vadhiya as a crazy scientist was funny.
I am sure that the production team can produce something better on their next try... i saw some potential... just the scope that the writer and director went to on a shoe string budget was commendable... unfortunately a story of this magnitude requires a lot more time, money and revisions and this looked like a rushed unfinished product to me. Well better luck next time. The crew has some potential but needs to devote more time, care and money on their product.
