everything you have heard about this movie is true.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

As some of the other reviews stated, the script was a bit convoluted as if written in segments by different people. First, the school stuff changes. Then, the EMT's appear as of they're some kind of saviours. They skip around what she is encountering without coming to the point. Then the science teacher gets involved... all like different chapters. Yup, I really was expecting some sort of real Black Hole to be involved, but it's not almost to the end that you start to suspect what is happening. About 3/4 of the way through, I was hoping they would get on with it and reveal what was happening. Little hints throughout would have been nice. Not a terrible movie, but I wouldn't pay for it. Good to watch ONCE.The acting is okay... but Izzie Steele's acting was pretty darn good. Not the large actions but the little things. The facial expressions, the rolling eyes, smirks, and so on. That really adds to the detail of the character. I hope she shows up in a better picture.I would have loved to find the Soundtrack, esp THE WALKING MAN.

Get ready for a long journey into the human mind. Thoughts, memories, emotions. It's all a flowing river, always in motion without a way to figure where it starts or ends. That's the world of "The black hole". A teenager finds her daily live messed up more and more as many things, places and people just keep changing before her eyes. Rather early in the movie she meets the two men who tell her that she (and everyone else) is just a thought in the mind of someone. She keeps ignoring and avoiding the truth as long as possible while the other characters try to help her accepting the truth.On this long journey you'll find yourself confused many times over, but you'll keep wondering what this is all about and where it leads. Even though the movie offers some length, stretching out to almost 2 hours, I found the time worthwhile.You only see Malcom McDowell in a couple of scenes. I remember him as the scientist from "Star Trek - Generations", who desperately wanted to get into the Nexus. The strange dimension where thoughts became reality and this reality could be altered any time, without "time" itself having any meaning. Both movies offer a similar concept and even though this idea has been there before, it hasn't lost its appeal.

It's rare to see a director get so far over his head, yet so far up his own butt at the same time. While trying, and utterly failing, to map out a complex story, the film cannot connect the dots between simple human interaction. Bad writing, bad plot, atrocious acting, and Dean Cain and Malcolm McDowell sleepwalking their way through this clunker en route to the SAG minimum paycheck they must have earned. Hopefully next time (should there be a next time), I hope the producer saves up his paper-route money and spends it on a better script and director, instead of C list actors. One might assume (as I did) that this would be some discount bin B- Movie disaster flick, but sadly it can't even live up to that. They re- titled it, gave it an action packed cover art, and tricked us into watching one of the dullest bits of cinema I've ever encountered. If I found out that writer was twelve and the director autistic, I wouldn't be the least surprised.

The summary sounded promising, though vague, but the 4 rating should have been a warning. Decided to watch due to Malcolm McDowell being in the cast. Big mistake! From screenplay to directing and acting, it was mediocre at best. What could have been a good idea, it did not happen: no plot, no script. It is hard to pinpoint were it went wrong. Perhaps when the writer had the idea for the script, or when anyone decided to actually pay for it. I thought about the spoiler alert, but it is hard to write about a plot when there is none. About acting, when the best was the mediocre acting of Mr McDowell (I love him, but here he couldn't help much). Pretty much the same happening all over again, with slight changes in setting, no logic in anything. Sometimes the music can build some suspense, but even that was a fail. 1 star for Malcolm McDowell, 1 for the film.
