If you're a fan of the ridiculously fructiferous director, you'll check this out no matter how badly it's reviewed. If you're not, take heed: this film is a total steaming pile of dog's shite.
In 25XX (I don't remember the exact date), the human population is so out of control that cockroaches had been sent 500 years previously to Mars, to contaminate the planet with an algae that would - in short - render it habitable for mankind. A rag-tag group of convicts are then sent to eliminate all cockroach life on Mars, by dressing up in Star Wars costumes and injecting insect DNA into their necks, granting them super powers.
Given that the cockroach population must be in the millions - as a minimum - it's a good thing then that our future boffins can create spider-man clones, because guns and bombs, apparently, just aren't ever going to cut it.
Oh, but don't worry, because needless sardonism isn't the reason for such a comment... no, it's because the government already knew that the cockroaches had long-since evolved into The Tick, and just love to make humans go splat!
As you can very well guess then: this film is a stinker. There's not much point insulting the script, acting, dialogue or effects, because the concept itself is stupid already. Well, okay, maybe there is, because had this been made as some kind of sci-fi spoof, it could have been fun, but instead, I just had to turn it off.
Don't waste your time.
