Stylish but barely mediocre overall
Sadly Over-hyped
Better Late Then Never
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
View MoreI just frigging CRINGE at these movies. They truly make me embarrassed to be Canadian -- always trying to make ourselves look like 'America' which going by these films means running around in khaki military outfits blasting the *&^% out of everyone and everything with guns and lasers and black macho guys that say things to Aliens like "Yo mutha %^%$#er, take this you $%$#$#, before they blow their heads off. I guess that's what America is -- a nation of gun-toting macho ghetto guys. I know it isn't but according to Canadian producers, that's what 'they' think 'we' think America is. Anyways, terrible movie, just plain terrible but what do you expect when you read, filming location: British Columbia. Yeah, Vancouver, British Columbia, the province of dreary lighting, endless rainy days and bad, bad made-for-TV tax write-off films.
View MoreIf you wanna get a decent feel for this movie going in... really try'en picture pretty much any crappy action/sci-fi movies since the 80's- for anyone who's a fan of genre you'll understand what I mean, if that's not your thing then you'll sit through his looking at your watch going Jesus Christ please just end now.If that is your kind of thing make sure you watch the version of this called Force of Impact, unless you are also in fact a fan of gay cinema... don't worry boys it's pretty hard to get the 'gay' themed copied... I should know I had to dig high and low for it.For those of you looking for the unedited copy good luck... But this is what I really want to impress upon people. Pay attention: this is a b-grade action movie where two of the protagonists happen to be gay (cute together too). Now there was an earlier review on here complaining how no 'gay' movies have any substance and the ones that do are written by straight people and so on. Well I won't even try'en discuss the fallacy of logic on complaining about straight people working on gay movies...But about quality... now gay people do this all the time... they complain about Dante's Cove and about Hellbent and so on... and about how these movies don't depict the gay lifestyle accurately and there all bad soap operas and that they all make gay people look like their crazed sex addicts... and usually after that complaint will come the statement... the only good 'gay' movie was Brokeback Mountain and that was made by straight people... Have you ever seen Brokeback Mountain... seriously... what a piece of crap- I'd rather poke my own eyes out than... But that's beside the point...There for entertainment purposes only folks... not an autobiography for the gay community... if I what something close to real life I'd become more involve in reality TV... yuk...I mean my god not everything made has to be an earth shattering revelation about what it's like to be gay... speaking with insider information... it's not entirely different from being straight.
View MoreWorst film I've seen since the Wickerman remake(Nicolas Cage, what are you doing!!). If you haven't got the budget to make a disaster movie, don't bother. Acting was awful, directing was terrible, didn't even feel like a disaster movie! Sorry you film makers, you need to try much better! If you want to make a disaster movie, generally it will be cheesy unless the world blows up as an outcome but modern day movies need to try a lot harder to get my vote. My favourite movies are Wickerman(original), Dead Man Shoes, Lord of the Rings(I've let some of the poor effects go as it's awesome),Of Mice and Men, Shawshank Redemtion and Batman Begins. I've recently learnt that I'm pretty hard to please with films but I'm sorry but this film wasn't my thing! Hope someone else out there enjoys it
View MoreI have not seen this movie but I thought it important to make a response to the previous comment. He thought that the movie was made as a straight thriller and then was rejected so some additional gay scenes were added. In actuality, the article I read stated that it was made as a gay movie, however, if they found enough popularity to go mainstream, then they would cut out the gay scenes. So he was actually almost correct in his assumption. I did purchase the movie from the Here Channel, but have yet to watch it. I don't think I will be disappointed because, well.... it was never in the theatre, so I can't possibly think that it would be spectacular event....
