Hammy Chinese disaster film with great special effects - Restart the Earth review by Alphaville
A dad and his annoying daughter fight to survive in a world overrun by monstrous plants. Why are screen daughters so annoying? Papa! Papa! Will no plant rid us of her? Also ruining the film is a by-the-numbers plot and screeds of inane dialogue and hammy acting between bouts of action. It’s a shame because, even with a measly run time of 89mins, the scale is epic and the special effects, even when hilarious, are spectacular and deserve a better film. Worth a look if you’re partial to a cgi extravaganza to pass the time.
