Nice effects though.

Absolutely brilliant

It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

I don't do many reviews unless the movie deserve it, and this one really deserve it!This is a hybrid, no doubt of it. We have a mockumentary within a third person storytelling. I didn't expect much, specially from the rating in this site. I usually don't read the reviews and if I do I take my chances and watch under my own risk.We watch Julian Richings (an amazing performer) as William "Bill" Cassidy, who is interviewed by Joe Sullivan who is making a documentary of Cassidy because he is famous for his "alien history". At the same time we see that William is actually imprisoned by military forces leaded by Dr. Tobin, and they intend to torture William with alien devices to reach an answer about all what he knows.Everything take a twist when we realize that Dr. Tobin is watching the documentary that reveal more than William is willing to. And is more twisting when we found out why William can survive all alien torture devices... I confess it was not surprise at first to me, but then all went freaking unexpected: William is William... and is more than that.So, I do like this film a lot. The acting of Richings was great as usual, and the rest of the cast try to comply the level with all their acting abilities, not all of them can do it, but is a good work.The best: I like the opening a lot, the cinematography was good, the setting was pretty decent, the acting was good, the music was awesome, excellent script.The worst: some scenes are unnecessary and don't match the plot. Some acting is not good in supporting performers (fortunately they don't have much screen time)8/10I do recommend this one.Watch at your own risk ... We are all critics, but must see to give a critic.

Having persevered with this horror movie and that is what it was, a horror right through to the end, I would have said suicide seemed a better alternative. I tremble at the thought of going through that sort of experience again. The plot was terrible, the scenery was infantile in that too much green, supposedly NV goggles? was used and it was repetitive. The editor should not have used the same scenes so often. It became boring. Disjointed is another word that springs to mind. Anyone on amphetamines would probably feel at home. One reviewer said the downside was that it was a low-cost movie. Well, I cannot agree. Nobody in his/her right mind would spend money on this waste of time so that is not really a consideration. My only positive suggestion is that it would have been better named by calling it EXCRETA not EJECTA.

I decided to watch this film besides the low score. That was my first mistake. It was immediately evident how bad it was going to be but I kept watching with the hope the it will improve later. That was my second mistake. And surely enough I was rewarded with one of the worst endings in the history of cinema.I am trying to find a redeeming feature for this film. Perhaps Julian Richings's acting was sometimes bearable but I am not sure if it was because of effort or sheer astonishment at the stupidity of the script. Everybody else's acting was as bad as bad acting can get. They almost seemed they were doing this in a foreign language they didn't understand and then dubbed badly into some kind of English.The storyline was mediocre and predictable. Huge holes in the plot and unexplained behaviour from absolutely everyone made this film quite cringe-worthy. The Blair-Witch-eqsue delivery was laughable and the video selfies *with* light while hiding from monsters in a dark forest were just bizarre.I don't have this feeling often but after watching this awful, awful flick, I just want back the 77 minutes I wasted on it.Move on people, nothing to see here...

Being a huge fan of Pontypool and the very bizarre and completely unexpected idea it brought to the concept of zombies, I went into Ejecta expecting the unexpected. Sadly, when the movie ended nothing of the sort had happened but I did get the feeling it tried. The scenario is a weird mix of threadbare tropes and some nonsensical elements with very little connections or consequences between them. The special effects are not as good as some TV shows.One of the first thing we see is this testimonial from William, the main character of the story, about how aliens somehow came in his head and left something there, something that fills his sleep wit dreadful stuff that is beyond description. The delivery of the interview scenes are as chilling as it gets, but you can only speak of indescribable horror for so long before it starts being just vague. The fake documentary angle works though, and the delicate balance between the interviewer being impressed, skeptical, and a bit scared is well played.Then the opening credits roll, showing every mythical alien photo we ever saw. It is fitting, because most everything about the alien's appearance, behaviour and obscure motivations does not stray an inch from the established alien lore.So the titular solar ejecta happens, which somehow makes an alien ship fail and crash on earth... in the woods behind William's house. There is an ellipse, Soldiers are there. William gets shot. William gets captured and interrogated in a bunker. And this is where the situation gets from tense to grotesque, as he is being questioned and tortured by a women that people call "doctor" who is also single-handedly ordering the soldiers, when she's not shooting them in the head to ascertain her authority. I actually enjoyed the way she played fake-friendly and enthusiasm that switches instantly into dark sadistic glee, but I found the amount of multi-tasking a bit unnatural.See, Dr. Tobin also found the footage of the incident (which has somehow been neatly edited with music in-camera) and is watching it for clues and learning about its content in real time, at the same time the audience is. The tape mostly contains very long chase sequences in the wood and the house. The alien's beastly behaviour and casual nakedness is never adequately explained, they just chase and bully the hero around, staying out of frame and out of light at all times, emitting a wide variety of growls, wails and that fashionable staccato growl every scary creature and movie trailer started making a few years ago.Meanwhile, in the torture bunker, mysterious gadgets are used and misused with inconclusive results, there is much shouting and unpleasantness. Some weird things do happen at the end, but never really build up to a reveal or help in any way to explain the goal of the alien's actions. In the end there is no mystery, there is just the unexplained.
