Wonderful character development!

For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!

Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Screamers (the first one) was great and Peter Weller did a fine job in an overall depressing and dark science fiction film. This straight-to-video sequel tells the story of a rescue team coming to the same planet after a distress signal is received.In an attempt to tell the story of a struggle for survival, the rescue team are attacked in a sequence of events that is much like that seen in Aliens. In fact, a grey-haired Lance Henriksen makes an appearance as a mysterious ally.The special effects are not greatly impressive and look like they were done by a kid on a computer who, to his credit, knows what he's doing, but should satisfy most people.The trivia says that a lot of the costumes and sets were made from things such as egg cartons and vacuum cleaner parts, which I can believe.Watch only if you want to see a little more of the Screamers universe. Most of what is going to happen can be anticipated and it has one or two little light scares.

Well I can't really compete with the comments below that rate this movie as horrible. The fact is, they are all quite correct. What I can tell you is, this movie was MADE for the Satellite of Love. I mean, this is a true match made in heaven. Mike, Crow and Servo could probably get TWO episodes out of this movie without flexing any real muscle and probably three with just a bit of thought. The dialog alone is enough to leave you in stitches. Apparently, elite military units just kinda ramble around, shooting randomly from no cover at people with bows and arrows. Yea, it's THAT kind of movie. If you're a fan of the first one and you just HAVE to watch this, gather up some friends and spring for a case of cheap beer. Better that, than suffer alone.

I really looked forward seeing the sequel to screamers, as the first one is a b-movie scifi-marvel. But what did I get? This? Non-class-pseudo-actors given a piece of inconsistent trash to make a movie from??? Everything is stolen from great scifi-masterpieces like alien 1 and 2. You may credit this as "hommage" but a movie as bad is just an insult to those movies. The story is nonexistent, read the other criticisms below for details of how insanely stupid and at the same time boring the script was written. You can foretell every minute in the movie as it is so plain obvious. In how dire financial problems was Lance Henriksen to make even this short appearance?Utter waste of time. Just watch it if - like someone suggested below - you want to see it as a scifi-parody. Even if it's bad.

I saw the original Screamers (1995) when I was 11 years old. Though I admit both the old and new have their flaws, they were both entertaining movies. This one had updated graphics, nice CGI. Not the greatest acting in the world but definitely enough to keep the movie entertaining. Some people pride themselves on everything having to be too perfect. In my opinion this movie has everything it needs. An attractive woman as the main character, action, intrigue, mystery, and even a couple twists. It is a somewhat predictable movie, but entertaining nevertheless. I have it 8/10 because A.) Gina is very attractive. B.) Action. C.) I loved the original and it was great to see a sequel. D.) The ending!
