The Worst Film Ever

Don't listen to the negative reviews

Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

I'm very open minded, but this movie was shot like a porn, without much actual sex. What can I say? Let's see, the enemies on another planet are using Vietnam era AK47s, people shooting at each other from 10 feet away cant seem to hit one another. Wasn't the floating creature with one eyeball toward the end stolen from Carpenter's Big Trouble in Little China? I don't even understand why ut was added to the film since it only appeared once for a few seconds.As bad as this was, it had some kind of hook that got me to watch the sequel? If you are looking fir Starship troopers or Aliens, don't look here. But, if you are looking for something to make you laugh or act as background noise while you doing something else, than this is it.

Take it for what it is and it'll keep it in perspective for you. It's not J.J. Abram's Star Trek, Michael Bay's Transformers, James Cameron's Aliens or Terminator but it's a decently fun sci-fi action film. It's a low budget creative movie. The acting is decent, action is decent and the film pays homage to a lot of sci-fi classics. You have the super bad female soldier, the tough leader, etc. You'll even see familiar creatures and familiar space vessels from films like Big Trouble in Little China and Aliens as well as other creations.I think one problem with movie watches today is everyone's trying to be a critic. They seem to have the false impression they could suddenly do a better job if given a low budget and actors to direct.I'm not going to lie, it doesn't take a genius level to find small problems in the plot or decision making of the characters, but if you're not trying to be next Roger Ebert, Gene Shalit, or Leonard Maltin...you'll be OK.I enjoyed the film and if you'r not a super critic you might too.

If you saw the 1st Recon movie, you'll know what to expect from this one! Yes, the sets and the costumes are better than in the first movie, and the special effects (while throwbacks from the 70s or 80s) are better in the sequel. Viel tries to continue the story of Earth's decimation by an alien race and the subsequent journey of humankind to the stars to fight what seems to be a never ending battle against the creatures that are determined to wipe them out.This is beyond a low budget film, it is a sub-level budget film. The dialog is painful at some points and overly predictable. The acting is.... well, there were actors in the film. NONE of this however stops Viel from bringing this story to a video store near you, and thankfully so. If you like really bad "B" movies, this one is for you! Viel and his troop of actors don't just go through the motions, they really are trying to bring the story to life. Unfortunately, they just don't have the resources to do the job. Should it stop them? No way... while not a multi-million dollar blockbuster, it's nice to see people making a movie because they WANT to. It's worth a rental just to support the fun they are obviously having. A 5 for effort, if not for delivery.

Traditional movie reviews will often give a hint as to the plot of the film. Sadly, I am thoroughly incapable of doing this, as that RECON 2022: THE MEZZO INCIDENT is not actually a movie. Rather, it is a series of loosely connected events involving the same merry band of hockey-helmeted-heroes found in RECON 2020. Rather than attempt to review this pipe-dream, I will simply list several facts about humanity's grim future. 1. Porn shows WILL be hooked up to malfunctioning shop-vacs. 2. The bartender WILL serve you motor-oil if you hit on the droid. 3. Said droid WILL "preform sexual programming," but only if it's within mission parameters. 4.It is impossible to shoot someone from 5 feet away with two fully automatic assault rifles. 6."Future" weapons are simply spraypainted versions of their contemporary counterparts. 7."Future" armor can be bought at your local "Play-it-again Sports." 8. Your buttocks clenches when you concentrate. 9.In the future, cyborgs do not simply kill their enemies. They rebuild them. 10.In the future, cyborgs do not simply kill and rebuild their enemies. They rape them too.You will go through this movie with a marginally amused indifference to everything that is happening on screen.
