I'll probably check out the sequel, but I’m certainly not holding my breath for anything groundbreaking.

Since when does an all-you-can-eat buffet take out half the patrons in a restaurant? If the monsters were actually stronger than the girls, maybe I'd get it, but they were getting handled like toddlers here.

It’s a decent enough movie, but honestly, I didn't find it quite as groundbreaking as everyone else seems to claim. The opening really hooks you—it's great—but once the monsters actually show up, the whole thing just devolves into your typical, run-of-the-mill gore fest.

It’s a fantastic movie—the only thing that would have made it even better is having Paul Hogan in it.🙏

Wait, seriously? Do you actually have any idea what defines a trash film? 👎

I thought the movie was pretty solid—it felt like a cool blend of Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow, Blade 2, and even that specific atmosphere you get from Aliens. The acting held up well enough, too, which is impressive considering the whole thing was shot entirely against a green screen... though I'm sure you wouldn't have any clue about how much work goes into that. 🙄
Besides, the whole thing was shot on a budget of just $8 million—which, if you ask me, actually makes it even better.
If you’re sitting there expecting something massive and high-octane like The Chronicles of Riddick, I should probably give you a fair heads-up—you might end up feeling a little let down. This just isn't that kind of movie. 😉

Wait, wasn't the budget around $20 million?
I honestly thought the movie was great. The direction and cinematography were top-tier—really stunning stuff. To be fair, I was expecting a bit more from the acting, especially considering we had such an incredible cast lined up, so that part left me feeling a little let down. That being said, if you’re a fan of games like Gears of War, you’re definitely going to have a blast with this one. Also, after dealing with so much PG-13 nonsense lately—honestly, I feel like they should just scrap the PG-13 rating for action movies altogether—it was such a relief to finally sit down and enjoy a proper R-rated film.
