Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

I just watched it on Netflix. It's OK. The sci-fi part, I agree with some reviews, is not really present apart from the space station which doesn't play any interesting part in the movie. It is slow at the beginning, I had to watch it with subs so the alien's translations could appear.I liked the story, there is one indeed. The end is good too. Lots of killing, the alien race is rubbish at combat, it's almost boring to see them killed like mosquitos. The special effects aren't that creative but overall it was OK.

This movie was painful to watch. The cinematography was poor, the acting was mediocre at best and the "sci-fi" can be described accurately as pathetic. The gun's are "California-ized" (low capacity magazines) and the pistols when you get a close up of the barrel end turns out to be a .22 or a BB gun. The "sci-fi" consisted of turquoise colored contact lenses and periodically cutting to show a space station in orbit. That is it. Nothing else. Everything else currently consists on earth. But this was supposed to be another planet that just happened to look exactly like Utah. The costumes are of Central South Asia influence and the "alien military uniforms" are all black tactical gear with idiotic face masks on the helmets. Had to keep the budget as low as possible and they succeeded, pathetically. The sequences in the movie were disjointed, the transitions did not transition, they jumped without rhyme or reason and the overall story was so bad that I found myself watching to see how much longer that I had to suffer through. The basic line, don't waste your money on this film because the producers sure as heck didn't. Don't waste your time watching this film because it was a waste of time for some actresses and actors to try and entertain in this film.I only voted one star because of no option to vote lower. In my opinion, it was more painful to watch than Battlefield Earth! Avoid at all cost!

The action sequences leave a lot to be desired reminding me of the A team ... but and its a big but the story is one about the three main characters and not the action. The story has some logical inconsistencies but it is a sci fi movie after all so those can be easily forgiven. The more you watch the more you will get invested in the characters especially the cerulean characters and the plot is not as predictable as it seems. The acting esp by nichelle aiden is superb and better production quality would make this a class film. It is an unusual film that doesn't fit neatly into any genre but the one word i would use to describe it is a film about redemption. Excellent ending so persevere with it.

This movie is a bad sniper movie and an even worse science fiction movie. It looks cheap in all aspects. The CGI looks cheap and makes no sense at all. The bombardment scene in the beginning is a joke (a building collapsing like being demolished by carefully set explosive devices). The animations of vehicles look like SF games from the 90s.The costumes and weaponry are 90s Earth, on both sides (alien side too!). They did not even try to make them look different. Only the firing sound comes out of a PC and sounds just like that. The effects of bullet hits are erratic, sometimes solid rock explodes, sometimes a helmet face get's cut off as clean as with a laser torch, guy inside totally unharmed. Then suddenly, the "hero" starts running through enemy lines without any cover and takes them all out firing a pistol. Needless to say, that none of them shooting assault rifles hit him seriously, they already spent their luck moments before, cutting down his entire unit without resistance.The sniping techniques are beginners at best, most of the stuff shown is only show and has no real use. The reticules are fantasy style and use blurry hexagons to make shooting even harder.The movie has zero story. A few screens showing you beautiful young women try to tell you the basics of what has happened. Humans went to an alien inhabited planet and started a war. The "aliens" look 100% identical to humans (yeah, budget i know) wearing turquoise contact lenses. They speak in a rough makeup language producing metallic and static sounds that make no sense (no, they are not cybernetics). They wear black (evil color) suits and metal helmets that look a bit like a knight's helmet meets Darth Vader.The whole movie,yes the whole movie, is made up of scenes where the protagonists runs away, hides, sets up to snipe a few of his pursuers, then continues. Ah, and a few scenes on board a mysterious military station in orbit where officers watch and comment his actions but do NOTHING to help him.Finally he meets the damsel in distress, an alien woman, confronts a fellow human soldier (he must defeat him in close combat obviously) and get's saved by his enemy, the alien sniper because he showed mercy and compassion to the atrocities done to the aliens by humans (his comrades).The whole movie was an excuse to show someone use a sniper rifle (wrongly).If you are looking for a science fiction movie, skip it. If you are looking for a sniper movie, look further. Nothing else to be seen here. Overrated Miss Aiden doesn't add anything to the movie, even trying to look good is a pain here.One can only hope that the director will not raise any further money via Kickstarter to undertake another adventure into the realms of movie making. This movie was not even well-meant. If it was a student's first full movie attempt...no, even then it would disappoint.
