Overrated and overhyped

A story that's too fascinating to pass by...

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

A rogue android called Romulus and his team of terrorists enter a hospital and gather hostages including the President's daughter. To combat this a man the FBI think is the architect of the hospital is taken out of a penal deep freeze and sent into the situation. By an error the man Desilva is not the architect but an ex-football player who had killed a man in self defence. Sent in with a team Desilva finds himself alone after the rest of the team are killed. Will our reluctant hero save the day? Well, yes of course. Although an amalgam of several films it moves along quickly and mainly entertains.The cast makes the film better than it really is. Martin Kove is likable as Desilva and Frank Zagarino suitably solid and stern as the android with the bleached hair. Even better are Meg Foster as the president's daughter Sarah and Joss Ackland as Kinderman the creator of the android. He livens up the movie when he finally appears. There are the usual shootings, explosions and fighting staged adequately so not a waste of time but not a classic. Other Shadowchaser films followed, This is the best of a mediocre bunch.

Sometimes you get the chance to clap eyes on a little cracker of a "B" movie that is better than most "A" releases. This one is as much fun as UNIVERSAL SOLDIER, though obviously put together om a much lower budget.The titular project has scientists developing a super soldier android named Romulus, who has muscles in places that most of us do not even have places. He is big, bad, blonde, and on a rampage after escaping from the research facility where he was created.Cut to a quiet evening in a hospital where two emergency cases are admitted, and all hell breaks loose when then patients and their orderlies start to shoot everyone in sight. The intruders turn out to be terrorists who intend to take hostage the President's daughter, who is being treated in the hospital.The FBI nips along to a nearby cryogenics laboratory to thaw out the architect who designed the hospital building to help them find a secret way in. Unfortunately a wrong man is defrosted: a football player who was put on ice for an accidental homicide. He becomes the unwilling hero of the movie, which unfurls with all the thud and blunder of DIE HARD meets THE TERMINATOR.The action scenes are well staged and the plot has some surprises. If you are after a film pulsating with continuous action, then this is definitely one worth chasing...

I have seen thousands of films and this is by far the worst! It is a straight cross between Die Hard and Terminator and makes no sense of either story line. I do not understand what the makers thought they where doing, the film is well shot has some reasonably well known actors (no-one huge) the special effects are OK to good but the story and ideas are nuts. I watched this with two friends and we all just sat and looked at each other after it finished then basically tore it apart. The only reason to watch this is so you can tell everyone how bad it is and say you have probably seen the worst serious movie made. This is not a B movie it's a C movie for crap! I'd give it 0 stars if I could. Apparently there are sequels... WHY!

If you watch Project: Shadowchaser, you have to keep in mind that it was shot on less than a million dollars. Remember that, and you could enjoy it. At times the script is unbelievably bad, although there are a couple of good lines. Although it was a complete rip-off of Die Hard with some tones of The Terminator built in, and a plot with more holes than a sponge, Project: Shadowchaser delivered some good, brainless entertainment.The music was great, the best in a movie with this small of a budget for quite awhile, and the direction was fast and peppy, but one action sequence (POSSIBLE SPOILER: Romulus chasing Sarah and DeSilva) was awful.+ (GOOD THINGS) 1.) The music 2.) The ability to make it look big-budget 3.) The direction 4.) The special effects 5.) Frank Zagarino's performance(BAD THINGS) 1.) The script 2.) The plot line (Have we seen this before?) 3.) The believability TOTAL: 5/10
