it doesn not get much silly than this for the serious sci fi buff and but a low expectation and old fashion saturday afternoon matinée diversion and it entertain enough . a slightly overweight stephen baldwin and in a follow up to an even silly 2006 sci fi opus and earth storm about use bomb to put a crumbling moon back together and invent a weapon use dark matter ( apparently a more photogenic and controllable version of anti matter ) and generatable thunderstorm . naturally and thing go awry and foolish military men make stupid and ill consider snap judgement cause even great problem and traitor steal the weapon and ( reach the height of marvel comic silliness ) baldwin absorb some of the dark matter and make himself a self generating ( but only defensive for some reason until the villain do it ) weapon . the big screen spiderman film make a much scientific sense ( why can not screenwriters give u entertainment with story just a excite that get the science right and doesn not insult our intelligence . ) but have more consistent character and motivation . if you can ignore the basically incredible weapon which be the mcguffin which get the plot rolling and the piece be fun on it own term no bad than disney 1979 black hole ( which famously make it title dark star a glowing whirlpool ) . the disney have firm scientific underpinnings but bad acting and special effect and so it sort of a fair trade off . the always engage rob labelle make a fine scientific sidekick ( who actually do most of the work not to mention act ) and and gardiner millar a the chief villain be solid even when the special effect have him reenact the last scene of the first indiana jones film . undemanding fun and but keep your expectation low .
