Good idea lost in the noise

Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast
Yash Wade
Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

Seriously. That's pretty much the film that we have on hand. A crew isolated out in the middle of nowhere (aka an oil rig), are attempting to do a job, when they encounter a strange, brutal creature.Unlike 'Alien,' there's very few characters to care about. There's a gaggle of idiots (one pretty much the Jar Jar Binks of comedy relief) that you just know are fodder for the creature.Most of this films feels like it was shot against a green-screen, as we see lots of process-shots, and even some fake motorcycle-riding (yes, motorcycles on an oil rig, they are THAT bored!).This was also a 3D horror film, so we have lots of images of swooping cameras, characters moving in and out of the frame, and stuff coming' right at ya! Personally, give me 'Alien' or 'The Host' any day, and leave 'Sector 7' to sink into the abyss.

I was hoping for more of a Deep Star six, Deep Rising Leviathan or possibly a Deep Blue Sea horror flick on the sea but Sector 7 isn't all bad. The Korean sci/fi action horror hybrid film centers on a group of drillers who battle sea monsters aboard their rig. Their are some cool spfx and some bad CGI and green screen work. The movie looks like it was probably fun in 3D and there are some nice shots in it. The cinematography freshens up the generic storyline and although insipid it makes for some goofy fun. It reminded me of a section in the Resident Evil 4 game, those who have played it will know what I'm referring too and that's how the movie plays out. it feels like a big video game but overstays it's welcome slightly by taking to long to get started and stretching out the climax with unnecessary slow mo. All in all it's not a bad watch and worth it if your in for this type of movie.

SPOILERS!!!!!!!This film is without a doubt the worst monster movie i have ever seen. I went into this with such high hopes. I was a HUGE fan of The Host and Chaw and so went into this expecting it to (at least) be a lot of fun.How wrong was i....First complaint: The rip off factor This movie takes ALL of its main plot points from Alien and (to a lesser extent) The Abyss. 1. Strong female lead fighting rampaging monster - Alien 2. Large monster remaining hidden throughout most of the film as it picks off the crew one by one - Alien 3. Monster has elongated tongue it uses to attack prey - Alien 4. Monster has extremely thick skin that is only vulnerable to fire - Alien 5. Oil rig is set for self destruct in the finale in an attempt to destroy monster - AlienI could go on but honestly i don't need to. The CGI is awful and the monster design is so bad it i8s almost unwatchable. It looks like a giant killer BBQ spare rib. With legs. And Teeth.The subtitles on the English version have a disgraceful translation too. In summary, i have seen some absolute stinkers in my time, but this is one of the worst. Avoid this unless you intend to use it as a substitute for Chinese water torture.

IMO this movie sucked bad, generally I tend to be open minded and watch movies with no expectations, you know.. when you don't expect nothing, most generally you wont be disappointed, and at the worst, at least you'll be somewhat entertained, but this movie really was a disappointment and a waste of time.Im guessing director or writers just decided to throw in random ideas and see what they could get out of it. I'm cool with that, but come on, at least set some minimum standards!For me, this movie was about random scenes, stupid dialogues and wtf moments. Nothing is developed (except for somewhat the main character, nothing is explained. Seems like the monster just went nuts and started a killing spree... hey! I usually like that, but... even the deaths were boring!!Jumping from one scene to another, seems like (from divine intervention) someone knows what's going on, or what to do. LOTS of gaps in basic logic, and really big plot holes, BUT! if you don't care about that, maybe you'll like this movie.Seems they started recording and just made the script as they went by.. that's really the only explanation I can find.It's like reading a book, starting on Chapter 1, then 2, then jump to 4, after that to chapter 7, read chapter 3 of another book, and jump to the end."OH!! we forgot this was in 3D, so lets throw in 5 secs of some 3D scenes throughout the movie!!" "Wait, 5 secs is not enough, lets throw in another random scene!" *thinking about jellyfish* Really, REALLY a waste of time.First time I've ever rated a movie 1/10.
