B-movie all the way
Asteroids hit an abandoned Soviet space station which was doing experiments on spiders. The spiders survive the crash landing into the New York subway system. Transit manager Jason is trying to restart the system. He ends up battling the spiders and the military which is trying to use them for nefarious purposes.
This is a B-movie all the way. I would get rid of the renegade military and make the spiders less bulletproof. The queen should be the final screen which only comes out at the end. The actors are B-actors. The story is B-story. The spiders are B-spiders. I don't know anything about the 3D. I doubt that it's anything other than B-3D.

You guys! Get in here!
Jason (Patrick Muldoon) works for the NYC subway. He becomes a key player when space spiders disrupt his system. His ex-wife Rachel (Christa Campbell) a proud graduate from the Kristen Stewart school of facial expressions, works for the city health department. Armed with their wits and a forklift they continue on their never ending quest to locate their daughter Em (Sydney Sweeney) battling the military and bullet proof spiders.
The true origin of the spiders is revealed 35 minutes into the film.
The special effects are low to mid grade CG. While there was always something going on, the film seemed hollow as if it needed another subplot of someone besides our lone family and the military. The dialogue lacked zing and the actors were simply collecting a paycheck. 3 stars is overrated for most people, but I love Christa Campbell's long hair.
