WHOEVER WINS… WE LOSE.

An expedition heads to Antarctica hoping to find ancient ruins underneath the ice; the mission is successful, but they also run into two species of monsters. The man who gave us Resident Evil (2002) delivers an even emptier experience; who’d have thought getting two famous movie monsters to fight each other would be this dull? Not for a second does it look like we’re on Antarctica, the characters are boring and the fights look a little too mechanical to excite us.
