The greatest movie ever made..!
... View MoreExcellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
... View MoreWhile it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
... View MoreThe plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
... View MoreReleased in certain territories around the world in 2015, Dominion: The Last Star Warrior is a rough, raw and ridiculous sci-fi experience that at its core harbors an interesting idea but in inception delivers a tiresome and dialogue heavy offering that is anchored down by bargain bin worthy delivery and a convoluted plot that is far too high reaching for director Richard Lowry's 80 minute feature.If I was being honest, Dominion is almost (and I mean really close to being) a so bad its good event but thanks to its inability to instil itself with any sort of energy or heart, Lowry's poorly executed effort becomes harder to bare as the runtime clicks ever so slowly onwards.After an initially intriguing set-up, you feel like it's possible this could be a tolerable low-budget affair but after an extended opening credits period, Dominion starts to fall very quickly off the rails as its plot line becomes more apparent and increasingly tiresome.Centring around Barry Lynch's retired US Intelligence agent turned UFO investigator Robert Casey and his dealings with Travis Hammer's Jaelen, a human-like being from another planet whose operating as an observer on our planet and tells Casey about the unfortunate impending doom of Earth in 5 days, Dominion does have the bare bones of a decent story but it's never allowed to grow in Lowry's poorly delivered and badly acted tale.When you throw in a laughably bad love story between Jaelen and a women he fell in love with whilst on Earth and a bunch of other-worldly races and beings that we never really get to know much about, poor old Dominion never really stands a chance in a day and age where consumers expect a certain amount of quality control and performances with a pulse.Final Say - For the most tolerant and Sci-Fi obsessed movie goer Dominion may provide some type of entertainment for 80 minutes but for the rest of us, this shoddy and raw feature is an extremely tough viewing experience.½ a long opening credits sequence out of 5
... View MoreRobert Casey (Barry Lynch) publishes books on UFOs and the government cover up. He teams up with Jaylen (Travis Hammer) who is from Andromeda and and warns of a Draconian invasion that will wipe out human existence, except for those Illuminati humans that run the planet who are in cahoots with the aliens.The film was suicide boring. It consisted mostly of people talking. It is into conspiracy theories about ancient astronauts, UFOs and government secret bases. Yes we need those AR-15' so we can overwhelm the government at these secret bases when the aliens attack. The plot was horrible as was the dialogue and acting. The other issue is that the budget doesn't allow the production to show any battle scenes. They are read to us. I am not sure who started the trend to name aliens from the visible earth constellation. It is idiotic as the stars in the constellation are not really part of a close cluster, they just appear that way. And why would someone who lives on a planet that circles a star in constellation of Arcturus refer to themselves as Arcturians? People who like this conspiracy nonsense might also like "Harodim." BTW empty computer folders do not have documents, pictures, or film in them. Guide: No F-words, sex, or nudity. DVD has English subtitles.
... View MoreThe earth is going to be invaded in five days says a man from Andromeda called Jaelen to a dedicated ufologist Robert Casey. The latter tries to get this information out to the world. Meanwhile Jaelen's human partner Alyssa who is expecting their baby has been abducted somewhere. Eventually the earth is invaded. They are some of the strands in this film and it sounds promising but it is really slow. It does show it's low budget by the number of talking scenes and most of it is telling and not showing. There is a prologue that states mankind concealed lots of unborn babies in stasis to be revived when the invaders had gone but at the end of the film it says mankind survived because Andromedan space ships took millions of people away to a suitable planet in their galaxy, which made the prologue superfluous. The invading aliens are the Draconians who apparently have been in cahoots with NASA for decades, which is a bit silly. The moon is also a hologram! The music score, direction, acting and photography are dull. Towards the end there is an extract playing from Dvorak's 'From The New World' to add a grandiose 2001:A Space Odyssey vibe but it doesn't work. Poor Dvorak doesn't get a mention in the credits either. Give this one a miss.
... View MoreI am a sci-fi genre addict and can excuse many failings in a film, but this was one of the slowest, least-engaging films I have ever attempted to watch. I've flagged this up for spoilers, but to be honest so little happens in this film there is almost no plot that can be spoiled! The opening minutes give the impression that you might be in for an interesting science fiction adventure, but then almost nothing happens for the next 40 minutes apart from people talking about exciting events that have taken place off-camera (with infrequent cut scenes of spacecraft possibly doing something interesting away from the narrative and black SUVs driving about)."We're going to set the world on fire with this" exclaims a character - as we watch film of a guy wandering about in the desert - filmed on, seemingly, a broken smart phone, coupled to snap shots and documents gathered through Google. Exciting music kicks in as they - upload it to the internet...We're told that the Moon is an artificial base for an invasion, and that NASA are in on events - but then, without showing us anything of the sort, the film immediately moves onto the more important shots of MiB agents disturbing afternoon wine tasting (with their faces suggesting that they are utterly terrified of confronting an unarmed OAP).After an hour we pay a brief visit to what appears to be the CGI set of Babylon 5. 14 minutes later a voice-over tells us about the (unseen) invasion and later (not shown) space-battle and the end of life on Earth, while we see a few space ships gently flying about on the screen accompanied by Dvorak's New World Symphony - with the film ending by showing us the new human home world (from orbit only).Bluntly, this film takes itself too seriously, yet delivers far less content to think about than even parody films like Iron Sky. There is no reason for the viewer to care about the fate of the main characters, or even fear the arrival of the alien invasion and it was a real effort to watch this film through to its conclusion. As an actor I try to respect other people's work, and I keep almost all DVDs that I buy to watch again periodically, but this one will be going straight into the nearest charity box.
