Annihiliation
Crit
Who doesn't love a goofy-science pic? Meteorite strikes the base of a lighthouse and excavates a gigantic uterus, whence emerge . . . well, let's call 'em mash-up spores: they produce a huge alligator with sharkish dentition, an adorable little deer with willow-branch antlers, and a film with the scrambled DNA of a score or more sci-fi, war, and romance pics.
It's all very silly, but really good looking--less smart than it imagines itself (and less thought-provoking than writer-director Alex Garland's previous film, Ex Machina), but a Grade A popcorn-muncher.
