metamoprhis be the story of a dashing young scientist and revere at the local college and be bring under investigation by financial provider for the college . this force him to take shortcut in typical bad hollywood melodramatic fashion . my first think after this movie conclusion be this . not good and but not bad and for early to mid eighty . of course and i then realize that it be make in 1990 and which almost propel it down to a 4 and but decide to keep it at the mediocre 5 that it be . metamorphis do on a few occasion and seem like a good movie desperately try to get out . the acting and while not stellar and be mostly competent . you can even see the occasional glisten of a modest quality . pacing be a large problem with the movie . after think i have be watch for ninety minute and i realize i would only be watch an hour . special effect aren not stellar and but the director seem to be mostly competent enough to work around that weakness . the lead and a mildly charismatic male that seem to be attempt a blended channeling of tom cruise and christopher reef and remind me mostly of matt dillon character in wild thing . the female heroine do an ok job and but do not distinguish herself in anyway . there a naughty girl role in here and and the actress do what she can with it and but it doesn not seem like much . there be a child actor that the director can not decide if he morose and cheerful or just weird . pacing and a i say and be the bad problem with this movie and until a final battle with the bad guy that would make a power ranger blush . it be bizarre and inexplicable and until the final scene which be suppose to be dramatic but simply hilarious and saturate with every bad camera trick and overact that can be compress in about thirty second . a decent one time watch on the mill creek 50 chill movie pack . nothing that be go to bring you back and and nothing to buy on it own .
