Very disappointing...

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Well, Sci-Fi movies are always my favorite, among them 'District 9' is All time best for me and After watching Spectral, This movie will go to my favorite list too... But one more thing to say, Those weapons modified too fast is kinda impossible... you can say this is just a movie, and this happen only in movies don't compare with reality, but we actually love more reality on movies too...Wanna see this type of movies More ! Please someone convince the Director to make this similar type of movies... Thanks

Spectral: Spectral is about American special forces fighting the remnants of government troops during a civil war in Moldova. During the battle, the special forces are attacked by what appears to be ghosts and call on a DARPA scientist (James Badge Dale) to come investigate and help the US Army counteract this new threat. The Good: Spectral pulls off a neat trick. It is a movie about science and technology and the hard-working scientists behind it. Despite all the hoo-rah action scenes, it is the thinking men that will get them out of this mess. The movie sets this tone well and keeps it throughout the film. The fact that it manages to do this without talking down to the audience too much is an amazing feat. The solid acting across the board and a solid science fiction foundation are matched with a good pace and good action scenes. The film does manage some very nice set pieces with good practical effects mixed with the CGI. The Bad: If one goes a looking there might be a plot hole or two. (You need a hundred laser cannons using brand new tech? I am going to need half an hour and some duct tape). In addition if while the film certainly uses science throughout I wouldn't exactly quote some of those theories on Friday's physics exam. Actual citizens of Moldova can also feel free to criticize the wrong city, wrong language and ridiculous description of your government. In Conclusion: Though marketed as a Netflix original; Netflix actually picked Spectral up on the cheap from Universal/Legendary who was unhappy with all the science stuff and possible realized too late that Emily Mortimer is not going to open a summer blockbuster. That said one can certainly see the not inconsiderable budget on the screen. How Universal shelved this film and opened The Mummy is a mystery for another day. Solid Sci-fi actioner with an elevator script sounding like a cross between Black Hawk Down and Aliens. A fun film that is better than one might suspect.

Like many action films where the enemy is of unknown origin. The plot and intent of the enemy was not richly explored in the shooter action.I noticed that when ever the male science expert speaks fast, he throws in lots of assumptions and comes to a conclusion no one challenges. But the assumptions are so obvious.Another thing of not was the fact that next gen spectral killing weapons in a bunker of only conventional weapons. Even new suits and other gears. That is simply impossible in science, scale and timing. So many buts... leaves a sour taste of lack of true quality.

This movie could have been so corny, but it doesn't! I just think it was a really cool movie. It had a really nice flow. Mixing CGI and real-life flawlessly. It really was that good to my eyes. Was thinking it was not a B-movie at all while watching it. As I presumed it to be. But as read here it never really was. To my eyes no difference: either I like a movie, or not. And I clearly did. So yeah, not much to add to that. I liked the good acting, decor was really nice, story was cool, the monster was cool. Props to it's makers.
