This is my first review, I've never thought to review a film on IMDB before but after watching this film I felt it was my duty to do so. The internet is plagued with fake reviews for terrible products and films, something needs to change. Into the review:
Acting: I understand not every actor can be great but being less than decent is not an excuse. The acting is stale, forced and painful to watch
CGI: All stock footage and from the public domain, nothing original.
Set: Boring terrible sets.
Camera footage: Terrible choice of camera angles. The lighting is awful for this film and doesn't complement the chosen camera angles at all.
Story: NO SPOILERS I hanged on through the terrible things mentioned above in hope this film would be interesting and offer an observation on the subject that other media hadn't. I was incredibly let down.
Audio: When I started watching this film I thought the film was dubbed English rather than filmed in English, when I checked I was rather surprised. I don't know what it is, maybe the actors wore microphones then they matched up the camera footage with that audio in post-production. Basically, they got it wrong and the spoken words don't match up with what's said in real time.
How did I come to watch this film? This film was on my homepage of my FireTV and the IMDB score at the time of writing this review was 7! I read the synopsis and saw the IMDB score, watched a snippet of the trailer and thought I was going to enjoy this film. I was so wrong
Classification: This film is not listed as an Indie title on Amazon Prime. It was listed as "sci-fi" only. Being an Indie title is though no excuse to be this poor. Saw was an Indie title, look how successful that was. This film is preying on people relying on the IMDB score.
Conclusion: This has got to be the worst Sci-Fi film I've ever seen, yes I watched this. I hanged on for as long as I could because I thought I could trust IMDB scores, I'm still confused how this is still sat at a 7 star review. I ended up skipping scenes after about an hour in because nothing happens, everyone just chats rubbish with no purpose or direction. Really annoyed this awful film was recommended on my homescreen, 2nd along from the left on the top row of my homepage on my FireTV!
This film doesn't get to claim "originality" or "insight" or even "perspective" its just awful in every capacity. The people who came up with this need to go back to Film School, join a job in the business at the bottom and work themselves up to better things to build experience before attaching their name to something like this.
Don't waste your time watching this. Mark Lund if you are reading this, do better. I'm sick of fake review on the internet....
