Review of Bugs

Bugs (2003 TV Movie)
2/10
Almost Worthless
23 April 2005
Warning: Spoilers
Mostly bad acting, mostly bad CGI effects, and a trite plot that's been done to death combine to make a movie that was almost unbearable for me even as background noise while I worked on the computer.

Construction of a new subway line breaches the lair of a hive of previously unknown species, i.e. giant - you guessed it - bugs. If you've seen any of the awful to great movies that employ this plot device, then you have little reason to give this movie a glance other than the different actors and a few gore effects that are done reasonably well. Some scenes will leave you scratching your head, though.

At one point people in a train car are ripped apart by sometimes invisible creatures who's partial absence must be due to not having enough budget to finish all the CGI shots. In another scene, someone makes an heroic stance only to be killed by a falling section of chain-link fence.

2/10 for better-than-average gore effects but not much else.
