Take the directive capabilities of Ivan Reitman, throw in David Duchovny and Orlando Jones, a dash of Dan Akroyd, and a whole lot of alien goo. Shake and serve warm. Evolution delivers to the funny bone pretty darn well. If you liked Ghostbusters, then you'll love Evolution. It's not very serious, and it's got some cheesy extra characters, but if you really care, then you're seeing the wrong sort of movie with this one. The actual alien evolution thing could have been taken in some interesting directions, and the ending goes for the gross-out joke, but I laughed a lot during Evolution. I could have done without the 'ad' at the end, tho. Some blooper outtakes, a la Jackie Chan, would have been perfect instead. Definitely worth seeing, however.
CyberKender rates Evolution as being worth $6.50 to see.
