Would watch again.

I saw this a little while ago, I think I'd go with an 8 as well. I wish I could remember specifically what it was, but something did irk me a little with this film - I think it was an issue around the timing of the zone and the teams that had entered that felt like something had been cut from the final film, or just not explained enough. Enjoyable quirky sci fi though.
