Very well executed
Absolutely brilliant
It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

View MoreWhen a meteor crashes on Earth, a group of people seek shelter in a bunker. Ten years later, they need supplies and leave the bunker, discovering that the survivors have turned into mutants."Mutant World" is a sci-fi that can be described in one word: awful. The acting, story and the screenplay are terrible and the movie begins without any character and situation development and has a corny conclusion. The viewer sees a young woman preparing to shag with her boyfriend in a van and receiving a phone call from her father. Then they drive to a bunker and start shooting people since the place does not have supply enough for their neighbors and friends. Ten years later, the woman leaves the bunker commanding an army to get supplies and they stumble with mutants and a few people that survived to the apocalypse. The movie is so bad that there is a cameo participation of Kim Coates only to give his name to the credits. My vote is two.Title (Brazil): "Mundo Mutante" ("Mutant World")
View MoreIn a word, pathetic! A bunch of Canadian actors trying to play US American militia and doing so without any charisma whatsoever. I watched this over the course of three evenings as I could not endure viewing it in one sitting. Why is it that Canadian movies rarely, if ever, use Canada as the backdrop of the story. Telefilm Canada obviously needs to re-evaluate its requirements for tax credits given to film producers that Canadian tax payers ultimately pay for. I digress . Essentially, this is a story of "Armageddon" however, not with the big screen production values we're used to but, with a YouTube fan film production, or just slightly better. Have zero issue with strong female characters however, why do strong female characters have to be empowered at the expense of the male characters. Do directors and producers really feel the only way to make a womans' character strong is to weaken her male counterpart? Really? Isn't that rather sexist to both genders? Next, I don't know why Kim Coates, who is otherwise a great actor, would associate himself with this tripe. Bad move Kim. This is some of the worst acting I've ever seen. Holly Deveaux should really plan on a fall back career, perhaps as a pole dancer, as her acting is just awful and so unrealistic. Amber Marshall is the girl from the CBC's "Heartland". Amber, may I suggest you go back to the heartland, leave the acting to real actors please. I'm not familiar with the other actors , so I'll just say their performance is lacking at best. Perhaps this is the product of terrible directing as well. And it is awful. One and a half million dollars was the estimated budget for this movie, and it shows in every aspect of this film. The money would have been far better spent giving it to a charity. It always is however. So, if it's late one night and you can't sleep, watch this movie. NO. JUST KIDDING!. Stay in bed , your dreams will probably be far more entertaining and with better continuity than this garbage.
View MoreLow budget movie. It wasn't a complete waste. However, I checked this out because Kim Coates was first on the list as one of the players in this title, but he was barely in it. He appeared in about the first 5 minutes of the film, and reappears in the last 4 minutes. I don't plan on giving this film a second chance. There are still a handful of unanswered questions about what happened in the film as well. I grabbed this film out of a redbox, which we can't always expect great films from that. This also featured the recording artist Ashanti. I have not listened to her music, but I can say that I certainly hope her talent for music is a lot better than her talent for acting.
View MoreOkay the whole premise is rather out there but it is a watchable enough movie. The most interesting part of the plot is how some the female actors are the empowered ones. A bit of switch especially for a post apocalyptic world scenario. I definitely liked that aspect. So there is a group of underground survivors, some of whom must come out when they lose power. They run into the mutants but I don't understand some of the stuff that they do. I mean green eyes, green blood?? Then the mutant giant that saves the semi-little girl, talks to her intelligently, and then gets killed by the normo's. So the underground retreat is located and overrun by the mutant's, the survivors make it to a town that is suppose to be mutant clear. The squad that was sent out earlier has also found it. Now this is another area I don't understand, turns out the towns people are only part time mutants. They turn mutant only during the night, I guess some writer saw one too many vampire movies? Those that survive the mutants turning blow up the town with the mutants in it. Turns out there is a sanctuary called haven but is really Cheyenne. The remaining survivors make it there and all is well?? Ashanti has a small role as the Preacher. While she looks good her acting is wooden, IMO.
