There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
The movie had a decent plot with only a few moments of the typical “blank screen with sound effects” that for some reason, movie producers and directors think ups the tension, but in reality, is just plain annoying. On the other hand, there were plenty of glimpses of the icky bugs and not just “hints” or blurs and vague suggestions like some movies do. I appreciated that. Also, the payoff at the end was what really made this one for me. It didn’t have to make a lot of sense, well none of the plot did, it just had to entertain me for a couple of hours. Recommended.

A budget monster film, this one, in typical SyFy fashion, follows a dysfunctional family as the disaster unfolds, travelling from one place to another in search of safety and interacting with different people along the way. There isn't really a lot of story going on and very little explanation about the creatures - no one seems to have learned anything about them in the 15 years they have been away and once again they just seem to arrive. There is some unexplained link to an eclipse but this is unclear as there have been many eclipses between 2002 and 2016. The filmmakers seem to want you to bond with the lead characters and cheer them on, hoping they will survive. The characters are not particularly well developed so it's difficult to like or dislike them, but there is one extremely comical moment where they need to venture out of a bunker and they find a cache of enormous weapons, and their eyes all light up (adults and children alike) as they pick up these weapons and load the chambers. It's scary that this seems so normal for them.....
The film moves along at a reasonable pace and has lots of average to reasonably good special effects. Credit has to be given to the special effects artists as they are tasked with providing hordes of different types of creatures and they do show them in countries across the world. For a small budget film this would have been a big ask so the result is probably pretty good.
Although the story is quite thin it all works reasonably well and is fun enough for lovers of creature films. 3.5 stars.
Aber: Die Umsetzung der Story bzw. das Drehbuch sind lahm und belanglos – teilweise auch völlig hirnrissig und unlogische Handlungsweisen der Akteure, recht plötzliche nicht nachvollziehbare Änderung der Lichtverhältnisse von Nacht nach Tag, unsw..
Die Schauspieler sind schlecht, wirken lustlos und sehen blöd aus. Deren z.T. völlig unpassende und unklare Synchronstimmen sind eine Zumutung!
Das Bild einiger Szenen ist für meinen Geschmack viel zu dunkel geraten.
Fazit: Ab in die Tonne! Echt eine Frechheit von Splendid-Film, so ein Ergebnis abzuliefern.
