A relentlessly gritty action film, Reckoning Day takes its inspiration from modern day low-budget classics such as Evil Dead (Sam Raimi), Bad Taste (Peter Jackson) and El Mariachi (Robert Rodriguez), and gives it a uniquely British spin.

First there is blood and that is what i like its vuh blood. Black and white first like films of ancient times with lots of black and white blood and i am saying "where is the red blood? this looks like oil blood or petrol blood". After a few minutes colour comes onto screen and gets to the flowing of the red blood lots of it. The film by Julien Gilbey is 2 hours but he makes it magic and seem like its four hours. I stopped watching after two hours but really i only watched for one hours. Another clever thing Gilbey does is make the story of the Reckoning Day very very complicated so right from the gecko you don't know who is bad or who is good or who is what or what is who, so you are meant to stop thinking about the story and so then all of your brain is used up on the blood scenes. So many brapty guns and so much blood that comes out ov everyone that i didn't think there was even that much blood in the world let alone in just a film!! 3 people that you think have died are rebrought back into the film halfway through i was laughing and said "They were shot about six times in the black and white days of the film why are they still alive are they ghosts?" clever Julian Gilbey clever. No one in this film laughs and no one cries and no one smiles or looks angry and happy and some wear sunglasses and you cant see there eyes and no one can make their faces look like they can do anything in this film so it is difficult to see what people are thinking through their faces but you know everyone who has blood coming out of them are not happy.I don't know what happened at the end of this film because i went to bed but my friend said nothing happened that haddened already happened in every scene that had already been on.Ten stars out of ten

I picked this film due to the cover sounding pretty good and getting a 5 star rating from a magazine. This film is also made by the same guy as rise of the foot solider which was a brilliant film. I have never made a review after watching this felt i had to. Definitely the worst film I have ever seen along with the worst acting. Watched 15 painful minutes of this film and felt embarrassed for these so called actors. Cant believe I actually paid to watch this pathetic crap, the actors and cheesy and can be seen miming the words. They are post to be these deadly killers and all I can see is some mongy looking geek's probably still in uni. I would say the genre of this film is cheese core. A complete waste of time an money.

This is a stunning piece of work considering it was shot on a shoe string.Watching with the director's commentary is an education for any budding film maker wanting to get their first project off the ground.The plot is a little hazy at times, but it's absolutely worth watching to the end credits.And you can FINALLY buy the Reckoning Day original soundtrack through iTunes and Amazon, which is arguably one of the finer points of the film. For me the music is worth every penny, and there's no excuse for not having this in your movie soundtrack collection!

This film is like a lighting bolt to your brain! This is one of the best DVDs i've ever bought - in fact it is the best!!! The action is based around a new drug which increases the users attack by 10000% or something like that. If you like action then this is the big film for you!! The makers of this film must be genius and I hope they make a bigger one with a lot more money soon -i can't wait for it! JULIAN GIBLEY IS GOD! HE IS A GENIUS, HE IS THE FUTURE OF VERY GOOD CINEMA!!!! GENIUS, GENIUS, GENIUS....................!
