Men Cannot Resist Her... Mankind May Not Survive Her.
With a creature geneticaly engineered through extraterrestrial intelligence escapes from observation, scientist Xavier Fitch (Oscar Winner Ben Kingsley) assembles an elite team of experts to track it down. The crew - a government assassin (Michael Madsen), an "empath" (Forest Whitaker), a biologist (Marg Helgenberger) and an anthropologist (Alfred Molina) - combines their expertise and traces their prey to Los Angeles. There, in the form of a stunning young woman (Natasha Henstridge), the alien initiates a horrific plan: to mate with unsuspecting men and produce offspring that could destroy mankind. As her deadly biological clock ticks rapidly, Fitch and his team are hurled into a pulse-pounding chase in which the fate of humanity itself lies in the balance.

SPECIES in elite class of sci-fi horror flicks. - 3.75 out of 5 (8/26/2001)
The sci-fi genre is filled with half-baked theoretical plots, and is often merely an action film cloaked in sci-fi clothing. Species first struck me as one of these movies. The premise is simple enough. A scientist named Xavier Fitch (Ben Kingsley) creates the human/alien hybrid killing machine, in the form of a beautiful woman (Natasha Henstridge).

Too much hope.......so..... - 3.25 out of 5 (9/1/1998)
Before I got Species, I really think it should be great, as some comments from massmedia, it just be a miracle with non-superb actor and actress but could hit the top position when it's shown in theatre.....
However, when i got them at home and enjoy it with great video and audio..... the story is really not suprising, and the ending is predictable....... being always half naked of our half alien Natasha, just not more than 10 dialogue in the whole film. Can't say the performance is bad but n
