EVOLUTION (Theatrical Release USA 2001)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.0|5.0 Starsìììì

Evolution relies on the terrific casting of David Duchovny, Orlando Jones, and Julianne Moore to create one of those ‘goofy’ comedy sci fi films that’s got spunk. It may well remind audiences of Mars Attack with Jack Nicholson and Pierce Brosnan. Plenty of chuckles and laughs found in Evolution.
