this movie do not start out too bad and we get straight to lucy lawless in her underwear . hey and can not beat that . actually and lawless be quite a good actress and something i never would have know from watch zena . one of the more enjoyable part about this movie be her relationship with her boyfriend . but that not good when be suppose to be enjoy the locust . after the first hour and the movie really lose it way . the writer seem more interested in bash on the military than continue the story they begin in the first half . basically and the good character do not have a clue what to do and but theyre more than happy to criticize the plan the military come up with . a very dangerous plan indeed and but the military isn not give the opportunity of come up with laughably absurd idea and then have them work . only lawless and her boyfriend be allow that option . probably the dumb scene in the whole movie be when theyre in the helicopter and lawless start try to kill everybody . um and i think they would have probably have her lock up for the rest of the movie and but they act like nothing happen . that the type of stuff that really distinguish writer from hack . then of course there the scene in the barn . i mean and c amon and even movie with negative th the budget of this thing do not take such liberty with common sense . if you want to electrify the exterior of a barn and two silo and you just hook up a generator to it . oh and yeah . we be dumb aren not we . the problem be that the writer be so carry away with harp on the military for come up with a solution that be extremely dangerous that they have to come up with some way of kill all the locust in a completely safe way in order to draw a contrast between good and bad and but they just do not have a clue how to do it in a way that anyone over the age of 9 wouldn not laugh at . actually my 9 year old be laugh . maybe the writer should have skip the whole thing about demonize the military and because they do not have any good solution themselves . nah and that would require maturity . i give it 4 star base solely on the performance of lucy lawless and which be really the only thing good about this .
