Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.

Blistering performances.

Have you noticed that every bad movie begins with an absurdly long credit scene? Future war is no different. I understand sometimes there are budget constraints but if you only have limited funds, much better to choose a script that does not require CGI.Acting is poor, but not as poor as some other bad movies 2.5/10. The character who plays Fred was probably the pick of the bunch. Script wasn't exactly genius, random objects can always be found when needed. Setting is very basic, it seems the director knew someone who owned a warehouse at least. Possibly even a cardboard box factory. Main 'cyborg' Antagonist looks like he just stepped out of a Kiss concert. Graphics are poor, badly done even to 1970s standards. The sock puppets are quite well done.... I mean they do look like kids toys but you couldn't see the hand right?Cinematography and direction practical non-existant. Production had no clue. Camera is unstable, probably hand held all the way through. Sound is choppy at times, sometimes it is passable. If it wasn't for the dinosaurs, if it were a bounty hunter using robot darlek-like trackers or something, and with a slightly higher production budget, mainly for some actual production and a script review. This could have been a 3 or 4.This is bad, but not as bad as some. Some decent laughs especially in the Dino scenes

Future War: 1 out of 10: Future war brings with it many questions starting with who are those people on the DVD cover? They do not appear anywhere in the film. I have seen misleading DVD covers before (Cough... Lionsgate... Cough) but this wins some sort of award.The plot is your usual fare. Jean-Claude Van Damme look alike Daniel Bernhardt is a slave in outer space. He escapes to Earth and is tracked by Tyrannosaurus Rex puppets shot in forced perspective. He meets up with a former drug addicted prostitute who is going through novitiate (Catholic Nun Training) yet she still has street cred and a scrapbook of her hooker days.So Slave boy and the Novice Nun join up with local 12 steppers and gangbangers to fight the T-rex puppets and kickboxing against Robert Z'Dar’s chin. The fight scenes consist of either people kicking empty boxes at each other or Dinosaur puppets in hallways with empty boxes. In fact, the entire film is filled with empty boxes like a Solid Snake wet dream or a UPS training film.Even with a budget in the thousands, I am not sure the script is filmable. The acting, with the notable exception of Travis Brooks Stewart (The nun unbelievably) is amateur at best. There is no nudity, limited gore, and the special effects consist of Dinosaur puppets.The Mystery Science Theater version of this film gets 8 out of 10. Decent riffing and skits though even Mike and the bots seem overwhelmed by the sheer incompetence on the screen

This movie is by far, no contest the most terrible movie in existence. This movie is bad before you even put in the disk (Yes it's on DVD), It list's the special Features as, Interactive Menus, Fullscreen Presentation, Scene Selection, Digitally mastered, and Dolby Digital English 2.0(Yes that's a two) Stereo. It's rating from the "Film Advisory Board Rating System" is a "EM" or "Extremely Mature". And i Agree with them, This movie is so bad it's not suitable for any age, or any living thing for that matter (And I include yogurt in that group). I'm dumbfounded as to how they got such a sad excuse for a movie to run for 5 minutes let alone the advertised 82. This movie is so bad it should every razzie just for existing.

Daniel Bernhardt (The guy who starred in Bloodsport II) stars as a slave from a different planet who escapes cyborgs and dinosaurs in a future where Earth is heaven to the alien humans who ditch the slave planet run by cyborgs. It's quite possible that this was intended to be a deep absorbing drama about the trouble with immigration and the lengths illegal aliens go to live their dream and escape the problems of poverty. Of course the symbolism is all there, the cyborgs represent poverty, Daniel Bernhardt represents the hard work and determination to get ahead and the dinosaurs represent the border patrol (How else do you explain how these dinosaurs fail to ever stop Daniel Bernhardt) of course he protects the American girl and her friends because nobody else will do it. Once again the symbolism stacks up mightily. This is truly a fascinating work of art that really details the struggle of an immigrant and his dream to elude the capture of poverty. The fight sequences represent hard work and due to the (not so) fancy footwork Bernhardt is able to get ahead and accomplish his dream. Truly an inspiration to people everywhere that if one comes more will follow. This could very well be the most heartfelt and subtle political commentary on immigration in this country. Then again considering the porn level production values, terrible acting and lame fight sequences, probably not. Still this is a not too bad movie, if you discount everything that makes a movie good.1/2* out of 4-(Awful)
