Am I Missing Something?
if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
View MoreEasily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
View MoreThis is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.
View MoreJack Deth (Thomerson) returns to the Medieval alternate fantasy where Trancers are vampire like and joins force with The Vampire king's son and the Tunnel Rat rebels to save the world from Vampire Trancer rule. Trancers 5 is really, really pushing it in terms of nostalgia and fandom from the earlier movies. The film is aimless and has no real zip to make the story move forward. Action is mediocre per the budget and the only thing this tired sequel has going for it is Tim Thomerson. It's hard to believe that the director of this is currently one of the best directors on TV. I guess that's one good thing to come out of this misbegotten mediocrity. Also the same problem as 4 is that the sword and sorcery era is not nearly as interesting as the Blade Runner inspired first couple and the movie develops no real momentum. This is the type of movie that is best described as "For die hard fans only" which is something part 6 doesn't even get right. * * out of 4(-Mediocre)
View MoreSPOILERS This movie was pretty weak. The first 15-20 minutes is all a recap of part 4. There isn't much substance going forward and it just looked like everyone involved (actors, writers, crew) were exhausted. Being that there isn't much to this movie, I don't know why they didn't just tack it on to the end of part 4. There was some potential such as when Jack Deth kind of fights himself. But that just turned into a few weak slaps. The end is also rushed. It was like what little money they did have had run out and they just said, "everyone gather round so we can just film a nice "bow" scene to end this misery." Not the worst movie ever. Just felt like it didn't have much gas from the beginning. If you're a fan of the series, it's worth a view. Just don't go in with high expectations.
View MoreDavid Nutter directs this TV style fifth movie directly after his own fourth instalment. Seems Charles Band and Full Moon handed over the responsibility to a load of people unfamiliar with the series and told them to make a movie (well, two actually). Cast try their best, script is lifeless and the wooden, dull and additive Deth is here simply too drained to really work. Like the fourth movie this is a strange hybrid of Robin Hood (seems to be set in Sherwood Forest at times), Shakespeare plays and The Three Musketeers (though of course this is The One Musketeer!). This (and Trancers 4) were filmed at Charles Band's family castle in Romania and though an exceptionally striking place and one used to fabulous results in other films, here is is merely an option for cheapness. Unbelievably Trancers 6 (made several years later and virtually unrelated - something about a daughter) is even more obscure than the fourth and fifth instalments combined - and, Yes, they probably should be.
View MorePlease no more, the fist 3 were good but now there just plane bad, don't bother with anymore. I watched this movie one night when I had nothing to do, And you know what? I wasted my time. The acting in this film was very good but the film itself sux. I hope that PART 6 is better.4/10
