I think it is not a secret, that this film has absolutely 0 plot and it fails to create suspense, since it starts extremely slowly and the weak dialogue just propels the mediocrity of this movie as a story. Of course it extremely unrealistic and most of the actions can be easily debunked, but that is an another story.

However nobody can take away the absolutely outstanding achievement in cinematography, editing, visual effects, sound effects, etcetera, that is exactly why this film won 7 Oscars, none of them for good acting or storyline of course, but still the movie has left its mark in film history, for sure. The graphics were truly outstandingly impressive, unfortunately that was the essence of this film, this film could have easily been one of the greatest sci-fi films ever made if only it had a better/more interesting story and the dialogue wasn't so dull and pointless.

It is worth watching just to enjoy the awesome visual effects, but other than that its plain, good thing it was only 90 minutes long. Has got to be one of the weakest plots ever, sadly. 4/10 for the graphics.
