![]() ![]() ![]() The scientists converge on Wildfire, a biological threat containment lab in Nevada, when a satellite returns to Earth with an unknown (alien?) organism. Its thrills come not from action sequences (though there’s doozy at the climax), but from the time-sensitive need to determine: What is the Andromeda Strain? How can it be destroyed? Why did a 69-year-old man and a six-month baby survive when Andromeda wiped out a New Mexico town of 68 people? Its critics have labeled it slow-moving and overlong, but I find it intellectually exciting. This superior science fiction outing pits four dedicated scientists against a microscopic menace capable of destroying all life on Earth.
