I thought Cocoon was lousy. It's a blatant ripoff of Spielberg's movies
and is a pretty bad movie in and of itself. I have been consistently
disappointed by 9 out of 10 movies I have seen in the past 5 years.
Garbage.

In Cocoon, did anyone notice several passages of the background music by
James Horner as that from Star Trek II, which was also done by Horner?
I mean it was exact, not a variation, like he borrowed the master tape
from Star Trek II and spliced it in.

I thought Cocoon was excellent.  I was warned by severl persons that
Lifeforce is a bomb.  Thanx to Peter Reiher for the excellent review on
both!

Cheers, Gern
