Konterr Brilliant and touching

Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Jenna Walter The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

spriggan43-1 Personally I enjoyed this movie and it's sequel ( I haven't seen the first one yet). Yeah it's a B movie but nobody ever said it was supposed to be the next Dark Knight. It's a B movie and never apologizes for what it is. It's low budget with no name actors and not so special effects. Despite all this, they do a good job trying to bring the story to life and making you somewhat care about the characters. After the debacles that were Star Trek, Wolverine, Terminator Rise of the Machines and Transformers, Those movies make Recon 2022 look like James Cameron's Aliens. The bad thing was that those movies had multi-million dollar budgets and big name actors! That's another rant for another time though. The best character in this movie is Dr. Anderson. Putting a Gynecologist as the company's medic is a stroke of comedic genius and the actor plays the part to a sleazy hilt. No i'd never pay to see this in a theater but it's nice to have on Netflix. Nothing wrong with a good B movie you can laugh at and just enjoy for what it is, a movie for a slow Friday or Saturday night that you can laugh at. On that note, I can't wait to see what happens in Recon 2024!

anymountain You can bet any review that says something good about this film was written by someone with a personal stake. Especially if it mentions something specific. The sound mix is horrible, the editing is amateur, the cinematography is unexplainable, the directing is non-existent.The story and writing are so hack and derivative of other films, that I recommend the best way to watch this movie is a game where you have to shout out what movie each line or prop is based on, in turn. The guy who brakes the chain drinks.These guys have made half a dozen feature films, how is that possible? That is a HUGE accomplishment, who gives these guys money. This movie is like watching a paintball club playing out a scene from a star trek movie.

Denatir 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.

poodlishka I usually don't write comments on movies but seeing that there is no other comment on this movie I decided to save you from one and half hour of torture. The acting is really terrible, dialogs are completely inadequate to situation, special FX are crappy, the storyline makes no sense, characters are unrealistic. Battles are idiotic, people shooting at each other from no more than 5m (15feet) for 30 sec and not hitting even once, frontal attacking having an alternative of using snipers, fighting with fists instead of guns... It almost looks like all the filming crew was forced to make this movie, but they didn't want to. If I save at least one person from watching this movie I'll be more than happy.
