No lifeline. No contact. No rescue.

The Russian space station Avma is disintegrating, and an international team of scientists is sent to the dying station to salvage valuable technology left on board. But fate has other plans, and when a rogue meteor collides with the station, leaving them with all communications lost, and life-giving oxygen bleeding into space, one man has only hours to save all the lives on board.
I read an article recently about damage done to the Hubble telescope by space debris. Perhaps it was a DVD of this bobbins? It tells us the dreary, rehashed, story of a crew who are stranded aboard a damaged space station. An hastily convened rescue team from planet Earth is soon being assembled - but are those pesky Russians really working from the game plan? The acting is pretty diabolical, the pace likewise - and what dialogue there is, well that's the usual gung-ho sort of stuff you might expect but hope not to get. Indeed, there is very little here to cause you to raise your eyes to the screen from whatever else you might choose to do whilst watching it. The effects are adequate, and there is usually something blowing up or spinning out of control - but for the most part it's just a really poorly devised and executed sci-fi adventure that isn't remotely exciting.
