Annihilation

Today I saw the sci-fi/horror film Annihilation with Natalie Portman.  It was a very strange and surreal film, and I’m not sure that I liked it.  Portman turns in what is in some ways a moving performance, but at times she also seems like a sex object.  There isn’t much of a plot to speak of, and it seems like it could have used more of an old fashioned sci-fi plot.  Great trailer, as showcased on the now much lesser AICN, but did not at all live up to it’s true potential for me.  Unfortunately, don’t  recommend!
