Battle in Space: The Armada Attacks
Several (unrelated?) scifi stories

Perhaps if it had decent stories
The stories consist of computer graphics alternated with (amateur?) actors doing stuff, with no real sense of connection. It's all quite hopeless, even if if the clumsiness of it all almost makes it sympathetic. The truly unforgivable sins were the supervague stories and random sensationalist title.Stairs, The
Boy and grandpa find stairs in the woods and go missing. Years later, a group of other hikers find them, unaged. And the stairs. And some demon.

Uninspired and unsuccesful horror
The opening gets by (barely), but the adult hikers are a rather annoying bunch (the metalguy is almost unwatchable) and so are the rather uninteresting and vague events they encounter. It's allover they place, like they just threw in some random horror things to fill it up.Exodus
After the rapture (apparently), a guy tries to find his way to a mysterious door to a better place

I am sure they mean well. Zzzzz.
It seems the that hardest thing to get right in these low-budget, low-tier movies is keeping the pace and keeping interest. It probably could have been a mysterious, symbolic, thought provoking journey, but it's just agonizingly slow, empty and emotionless journey.EmbriĆ³n
Attempts to tell a story about (mulitple?) people that went missing or weird after an alien encounter

A hot mess
My god. A messy, incoherent and incomprehensible mixture of found footage and a 'real' movie , it jumps allover the place to new locations and years (almost with each cut!), pacing is weird and feels made-up as they went along, and I did not understand most of it. Poster art is fake.ISRA 88
Two astonauts passing time on their way to the end of the universe

Unbearingly boring
Possibly it was trying to say something deep. But this barrage of long, pointless, repetitious scenes, goofy acting and plywood set pieces was just god-awful and made sure I didn't care what it was. A shame, because a journey to the end of the universe sounds so freaking amazing.Fortress (2012)
Replacement co-pilot of a B-17 struggles not only with the war, but also with winning the trust and respect of the crew

Perhaps with a better story
Not soon after enjoying the initial CGI planes passing by, I noticed the upcoming gloom of this movie: wooden and stiff dialogue and very poor storytelling and direction. It also has that B-movie smallness to it, with no wide angle shots on the ground to disguise the absence of sets.Fear Street part one: 1994

A hot mess
Sometimes you don't like a movie and move on, and sometimes and it really bugs you - like this one. A disjointed, messy movie that has some uninteresting teenagers making their way through tedious cliche horror events. Vague, boring and uninspired. No, I am not watching the other 'parts'.Deep Fear
A sailor rescues two shiprecked people, which leads into an ordeal of crime and shark invested waters

Another crap shark movie
When the lead is a pumped up bimbo with spot-on make-up even after two deepdives, shot in numerous preposterous shots to show her curves, a movie is pretty much lost. Add crappy acting and a poor script and it becomes hopeless. Two shark attack scenes were surprisingly ok compared to the rest of it.Halo: Nightfall
A new type of enemy weapon emerges, so brave soldiers must go back to the Halo to resolve it. I think.

Really drab. feel free to reuse the props in a decent story
Some of it looks satisfactory, but I was bored out of my mind with this extremely poorly paced movie with ultra dull characters chatting and fighting in a completely unconvincing mission in deep space that is immediately and only compromised by..... worms. This is not Halo man.Shanghai Fortress
Shanghai defends against an alien invasion. With a big canon.

Arrogant empty shell
How the hell did they get such a big budget to make such bland, generic, lifeless movie? It radiates arrogance. The numerous 'emotional' scenes with cheesy minor piano chords fall flat completely because I didn't know or care who these people are!Movies found: 1044 | max movies per page: 10 | Showing: 16 - 25
