Review of Species (1995)

By Jay Boyar (463) for Orlando Sentinel (1,594) on 19 Oct 2017

Species is an Alien ripoff, but that doesn't make it a bad movie--not when it contains a plausible premise, a great-looking female villain,…

Review of Species (1995)

By Roshan P (75) on 05 May 2018

This entire movie feels like it was made for an excuse to have Natasha Henstridge engage in soft core porn. 2/10 - and that's a generous score…
