Why was this on the Sci-fi Channel last night? Other than some off-putting babbling of a conspiracy theorist regarding aliens there was no mention of sci-fi themes at all. That theorist plot was plot c. Plot b, the love story of Midkiff and the blonde girlfriend who with her little girl leaves him before the 1st hour is over (having clearly giving up on getting more out of the relationship) was so annoying as the two had no real chemistry.
Main plot was even more annoying with clichéd characters and big laspses in reality. Not one bullet touches "Rat" in the long, long shootout in the hangar sequence. No alarms around the electric fence, and no barb wire at the fence before the hanger holding the craft. Stupid and BORING. Only the presence of Shatner and Judd Nelson salvages this mess and makes me grant it a 4; it certainly isn't the writing.
