Axis (2010)
Don't trust previous reviews.
Obviously the prior reviews were written by people involved in the movie. Acting: Horrible. Same boring music guitar riff for every in between scene. The film looks like it was shot on a web cam, not even cheap DV camera quality from Best Buy. This was just painful to watch. I seriously would love to know how anyone gave this flick over 3 stars. My 1 star review is mostly an attempt to balance the total farce of a rating this film as been given by obvious staffers. This looked more like a high school video club project than a movie. If this actually was a college class project, I honestly hope the professor flunked them or at least got really high beforehand if he did pass them. Maybe that's what I forgot to do, get stoned before watching.
Luckily, I feel asleep before the end.
Star Trek I: Specter of the Past (2010)
There's only one voice, even for the women.
The CGI is straight out of 3D Animation 101, and poorly done with character movement. I have no clue who the other vocal talent was listed in the credits...but trust me, there was only one voice, even for the female characters. The TV series "Enterprise" had to get special permission after a few seasons to carry the label "Star Trek." How this was able to carry said title is beyond me. Same goes for using characters and music from previous series. The people that own the rights to the Star Trek franchise would do well to pull all records of this ever existing off the shelves and internet (where I found it). The first 15 minutes alone were enough for me just to roll over and let the boring, monotone, SAME voice for every character bore me to sleep.
Do not waste your time. The only reason it got the second star is for how quickly it put me to sleep. But terrible enough to make Rodenberry roll over in his grave.
Paradox Alice (2012)
Good idea gone terribly wrong
I'll try and limit and/or be vague in the details to not spoil too much.
What looked to be a decent premise for a Sci-Fi film at the start quickly turned bizarre and disturbing. The disturbing thing wasn't the "transformation" one of the crew underwent, but the reaction of the 2 other crew members. One gets a messiah complex while the other drifts in & out of madness, both of them almost instantly fall in love, in their own warped ways, with their transformed crew member. This is what basically carries the entire movie as mankind looks to be all but extinct (which would've been a far more interesting part of the story to follow). The only reason I gave it a 2nd star was the only redeeming quality of the movie...the last 30 seconds where we finally realize the on board Computer AI's, Red, part in the whole story aside from being a homicide threatening asshole. Still, aside from getting the gist of what happened in the end, there is absolutely NO foreshadowing that this crazy twist is coming. Furthermore, the ending "X-factor," if you will would've made a FAR better movie had it been woven into the story at some point instead of the "Oooooooo...CREDITS." The acting was OK from the female lead, but the other 2 could've been replaced by horrible soap actors, but that's probably because the writing was absolutely terrible. The rape was certainly hard to stomach. The only redeeming quality was plausible scientific reason a transformation could have occurred based on other animal life.
I just go back to my original statement. The launching premise was a great idea and had tons of potential for something original. However, terrible writing and mediocre acting drove this piece of $h*t straight down the toilet. However, I'd like the writer to give me the agents number who sold this script. Because I want to know exactly who I have to sleep with to get 100 pages of fecal matter green-lit for production.
