I'm reading all of these neg. reviews. Why? Were people expecting a blockbuster? This movie was pretty entertaining because I went in with the expectations of a low-budget film. Story is unique and is a throwback to my fave 80's acting films.I assume this was the director's first film and I'm excited to see what he can do with a larger budget. I found this film on a streaming site so the quality wasn't the greatest unfortunately. Acting was to be expected. As other have said, it appears as though actors got more comfortable/had more stuff to work with at the end of the film. The shootout scene at the start of the film was a highlight. Seems like the bulk of the budget was put into that scene.
Friend of mine picked this up at Wal-Mart...Came on here to see some of the actor's names and saw the awful reviews. Just wanted to say that I liked it a lot....indeed, film got better as it went on...would love to know the actual budget since everyone seems to be talking about it...Lead actor (Jacob?) looks like the real deal. Fight scenes reminded me of the older movies I grew up watching....Pretty sure this film is from Canada which is pretty neat to see...Spoiler warning!!!...I don't know why they killed off the girl though? Seemed odd to me...dah well...So...was it an 8/10? probably not but I didn't think it was fair to see a couple 1's on here....6/10 is a more accurate score I think...I used to make films so I cant' stand when people bash a film just because ...
First of all this is not a high budget movie and that can be seen. Still I have seen worse high budget movies than this one but it never reaches the level of good.It is an action about saving the world from a newly created virus. It is seen before and same story as always.What I like about the "good" characters are they are kind of ruthless and it is kind of hard to find out if there are any good characters at all. Acting is not the worst I have seen but you will not be impressed either.Camera views are too much close ups for my taste but I can live with it.Conclusion: This movie is okay if you are watching a movie while chatting or doing other stuff. You can easily live without ever seeing it. There is a lot better movies and I would rate it below average.
OK,I have to write a minimum of 10 lines, so here goes.I wish I could review this movie in a word or two, but that's not possible.Here are a few words that I could use.Garbage, stinks on ice, very very bad, waste of time, one of the worst movies to ever have been made.Acting...see above paragraph.Direction, who knows. With a script like this, and the brainless actors, who knows.Being a musician, I usually enjoy the back-round score. Here, our composer did the best he could with the trash he was given to work with.It always amazes me that crap like this gets the bucks to fund it.I guess our hero's all slept with the producers more than once.The only enjoyment this vomit of a film gave me, is writing this review.I hope this review lets you spend an hour and a half of your life watching something better.Hell, with this movie, anything you watch would be better.
