Memorable, crazy movie

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

So bad it's almost funny. If it showed the slightest amount of self-awareness, it could be very funny. Instead it's just the worst piece of politically correct (hero team: white man, black man, Hispanic man, white woman) science fiction (an insult to the genre) action film (again, an insult to the genre) I've ever watched. Fortunately I caught it free on cable. I hate to think people ever paid money to see this. Was it direct-to-video or made-for-TV? It even gives those categories a bad name. My favorite part is when the hero walks out of a nuclear blast site (having survived by hiding in a well?!) and punches the first woman he sees in the face. Amazingly bad!

I normally hate these action by numbers movies, but for some reason I quite enjoyed this one. It's all done with it's tongue firmly in its cheek with a few one liners that I actually found quite funny. Very well made with some nice effects that wouldn't look out of place in a movie with a lot bigger budget. I would never have seen this movie if it were not for me finding it in a Bargain Bin of DVD's for less than the price of a pack of cigarettes. Glad I did and would recommend to anyone who can get a hold of it cheaply or catch it on TV. Just don't expect a classic!

There seems to be an interesting correlation between cheesy military/science-fiction movies and the F-117A fighter bomber - practically every movie that has this type of plane in it turns out cheesy. "Interceptors" is no exception. Basically this is the story of an incompetent, clumsy, immature Department of Defense contracted mercenary team sent into Baja California to recover (supposedly) a crashed F-117A. When the team is deployed into Mexico, they discover that this is no recovery operation - it's an extraterrestrial manhunt. The low budget nature of this film makes it incredibly cheesy, but particularly hilarious. The mercenaries run around in a black sport utility vehicle, wearing Walkman earphones which are actually supposed to be a radio communications system. Even better, at the end of the movie, we're to believe that it's possible to 'run' from the blast wave of a thermonuclear explosion. The list of oversights and flaws is incredible - but somehow "Interceptors" doesn't seem quite as intellectually insulting as most of its contemporaries, most likely a result of the humorous nature of the film (either by accident or design of the directors). It's hard to watch this film without breaking down into fits of wild laughter. The stupidity and haphazard flow of the movie is almost akin to the Hong Kong style of comedies. (The ending scene, in which the mercenary leader 'mistakes' a village woman for the alien entity is classic.) It's a shame "Interceptors" is one of those direct-to-video movies...it would have been an absolute riot in theatres. If viewed as a sci-fi or action flick, "Interceptors" fails horribly. But as a (accidental) comedy, it's priceless. The good point is the fact that most of the action is computer generated (albiet, the low budget CGI looks like something you'd see while playing on an Nintendo64). The directors don't use stock footage, and the aerial battle action is somewhat interesting. It's a good film to watch if you have time to waste, are home sick, or want to throw a popcorn party with your friends. The outtakes at the end of the movie are a plus.

This film is a "Predator wanabe movie". But it totally lacks everything that made the first two predator movies, and especially the first, appreciated. The acting is lousy and the plot is predictable and unoriginal. The few effects that are there don't blend into the environment (except maybe for the big crater supposedly made by an alien escape pod). If you have seen the predator movies you will have high expectations... don't.
