The first time I saw this movie it was on late night TV a few years ago. I've heard it was a low budget made for SyFy movie originally . . . if so, this was one of their few successes.Basically, it's a story about a college student who is dragged out of his normal life because of his dead father, an Indiana Jones clone you see briefly. Joe becomes entangled in the search for the pieces of an ancient staff and he finds that the pendant he wears has powers that can cross worlds.Rutger Hauer and Josh Charles (both favorites of mine) put in solid performances. Jack Black plays well in a pre-fame role as drunken buddy, and Andrea Roth as the eye-candy is decent enough. I love the use of older vehicles in the film . . . they used some real relics.Three things really make this movie work for me: 1) Stuart Wilson, a veteran actor, shines as Ferris; 2) The soundtrack is one of the first of Christophe Beck, a Canadian composer who has composed the music for A list movies over the last ten or fifteen years; and 3) the visual effects are very good, and they allow you to immerse yourselves in the story.I hope this helps anyone looking for a good fantasy/sci-fi film.

I am sure the now-deceased Yugoslavian dictator Marshall Tito would have had no objections to me renaming this movie. Though I do think he himself could have appeared in it. I refuse to totally dismiss this, because I find it quite engaging, in a guilty pleasure sense. I thought this was cute and not bad. All of the fancy characters struggle against a system that has perpetuated falsehoods. It's not the thing to see if you're in the mood for something uplifting, or something with tons of action. From an artistic standpoint, there were some plot elements and character developments I didn't think were totally needed. They do however drive the story, which seemed to be their purpose, so I can accept them. Final rating: 7/10.

This movie is not well known and I never heard of it until I saw that it was on T.V. at midnight, since I am normally up channel surfing at midnight I did a search on this movie and it looked interesting. The movie stars Josh Charles (ports night, S.W.A.T.), Rutger Hauer (Surviving The Game, Nighthawks) and Jack Black (Orange County, The Jackal). Josh Charles stars as Joe a young man who just hangs out at parties with his buddies and tries to pick up chicks. Joe the meets Laura who gets him involved in a battle against enemies from different universes that his father once fought. Then comes Rutger Hauer as A.T. who assists Joe and Laura in the battle between the Crossworlds.The writing is fun and a lot like "The Matrix" with the whole alternate universe idea, also there are agents in this movie who come in with their machine guns trying to take out Joe, Laura and A.T.

Crossworlds caught my eye when I saw that good old, Bladerunning Rutger Hauer starring in it. So I sat down ready to watch the movie thinking that I was in for another poorly directed B-movie, I was wrong. Crossworlds for a low budget movie is pretty good. Rutger Hauer and the rest of the cast deserve more credit from this movie, it should of been pretty popular.The story line is a little confusing but if you watch the movie twice over you should be able to get your head round it.overall quite good but a little confusing.7/10.
