After having viewed the trailers for this movie I was a bit skeptical, but chose to give the film the benefit of a doubt. It quickly became evident that the rave critical reviews were a load of crap designed to prevent Hollywood producers from "losing their shirts." The premise that sets up Bullock's character is plausible, but the storyline goes downhill fast. It appears the entire goal of this film was to showcase Bullock's minimal acting talents and 49 year old sculpted body. George Clooney was added to draw the female demographic to the theaters, period.

The opening sequence was largely borrowed from Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey. As for the remaining scenes, the amount of suspended disbelief required to see this flick through to the end will require the viewer to have an understanding of physics often demonstrated by famed cartoon character, Wiley Coyote. The statistical likelihood of Bullock's character surviving the situations that occur would be similar to the same person winning the Powerball for six consecutive drawings.

This film joins "Blood Beach" on a list of worst films ever made.
