Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.
Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film
I love B rate Sci-Fi. I thought for sure with Kelly Hu and Robert Picardo that this would be top notch B+ cheesy sci-fi. I thought wrong.The story wasn't even that good. The script/dialog was even worse. The action scenes were badly choreographed. The cgi reminded me of mediocre TV cgi from like two decades ago accept there was way more of it. I honestly can't think of one good thing about this movie.There wasn't even scantily clad women. In fact several of the prettier women spent most of the movie wearing bulky space suits that were several sizes too large for them. It made them look like frumpy oompaloompas. Not that I can spell it.This movie can't even claim to be cheesy on purpose like sharknado. It's just bad. Don't waste your time. TRUST ME! I watched the whole thing. I kept hoping it would somehow get better. Don't even get me started about how it ended. Urg!How Kelly and Robert got roped into making this is beyond me.
i enjoyed the movie immensely as it dealt with many everyday challenges we as a species have to endure, the holding of the axe during racy scenes was simply outstanding and even the likes of pitt, spacey or cruise must have been applauding the firm grip by the main fireman. The special effects may have been limited but the scene where they head towards the asteroid was on a par with nolan's latest galactic masterpiece and i thought the aliens where well dressed in primarks last summer discount fox cub selection, as for the space suits who wouldn't feel safe in those! overall many will hate but i guarantee if you watch this movie with like minded friends or turtles you'll have a ball, id recommend 2 bottles of jack daniels and a full pad of scorpion grade ebola acidic crack pills followed by a 90 minute snooze. x
SPOILER! SYNOPSIS IS NOT FOR THIS MOVIE NOTHING THAT THE SYNOPSIS STATES TAKES PLACE IN THIS MOVIE! The above synopsis has been entered for this movie all over the web except for a few spots, but to say they match is false. Asylum has either intentionally mislead everyone so they watch or buy this or there is something much worse going on. I don't know which but other way this movie was BAD. MST3K would have a field day with this one. If your need a bad sci-fi for a marathon to make a good movie that much better this is what you should show . Made the Battle ship movie amazing by comparison. Other than the fact that that this was not what I was looking forward to watching it was almost saved by the creatures shown. Still the "aliens" shown walked way to damn weirdly and they "queen" would have looked much better if they had used different textures on the cgi model.
From the opening scene this movie it blows chunks. This movie is so bad you can watch the first 10 minutes, skip to the last 10 minutes and the rest is cannon fodder. Now that concludes my review of "The Age of Tomorrow". Should you care to stick around I am now going to give some major points as to why this movie is so lousy. The rest would be considered as "spoilers", if that were actually possible.Opening scene, fireman and concerned father is driving on the LA freeway talking on his cell phone. California law bans all drivers from using hand-held cell phones while driving. Of course we then hear him tell his wife that he left the teenage daughter home with the dog and she will be just fine. After that he places another call to his juvenile daughter (still driving) and tells her not to come home drunk again. What an upstanding character for this movie!Scene two has some very low budget military and we get to see the two name actors "Kelly Hu" and "Robert Picardo". Sadly they both look like they are in pain for taking Asylum's blood money, but they need to eat too. Apparently in this scene, physicists who are both employed by the Pentagon and are expected to arrive, don't have clearance to see Generals and are detained by security. Dr. Gordon explains the asteroid one fourth the size of Earth's moon is going to collide with the Earth in just 48 hours. This is very typical of most movies to make killer asteroids much bigger than you need. Since the moon is roughly a few thousand miles wide that would mean the asteroid is about 500 miles wide and going to kill us regardless. We have no bomb big enough to blow up a rock that size. The next scene is fireman Chris Meher and his buds at a fire. Either the firemen in the scene have jedi powers or someone tossed axes at them and they actually caught them. Firemen are not safety minded people in this movie. They proceed to rescue a woman from a burning building. Meher's partner breaks his leg and is carried back to safety while Meher returns to show off more awesome jedi powers by leaping out an exploding window on the sixth floor and landing with the victim on a parked car not even denting the trunk.There are serious unrealistic acting flaws such as unprofessional character in both military and firemen. Such as whooping it up when you find out you are being paid $3 million to save your world from an asteroid collision. Whining about weapons to go on the mission. "Great we got tickets to the end of the world and we don't have any damn guns." The shuttle interior and spacesuits look like they were decorated by Doctor Victor Freeze. There is far too much gravity on the small asteroid there was no attempt to make the actors appear weightless. Later when the firemen and Major Blake are pinned down, Chris Meher states his plan to go rescue his teenage daughter. Two of his fellow firemen state his daughter is not worth it and she is not that cute. Science and the laws of plausibility are chucked into a dumpster when the asteroid rescue team discovers that the asteroid is nothing more than a prelude for alien invasion. They get teleported to the alien homeworld yet can make some type of call for help. Assuming the alien homeworld is as close as 4 lightyears away such a signal would take longer than 4 years to reach Earth. The age old joke of removing your helmet and saying, "Good there is air here." hasn't made me laugh since forever.Finally about 52 minutes into this movie there is a pathetic scene on the alien homeworld. Captain James Wheeler is freeing an unknown and healthy female captive and she is distraught and begs him to kill her. Everyone knows that people in a crisis think clearly so... the Captain stabs her slowly in the gut. Yes, he kills her in the most painful way imaginable. What a hero. Yet moments later he is faced with a fellow soldier who is obviously been tortured and dying who is denied the same sympathy or indifference.Watching this whole movie is like getting stabbed in the gut by Captain James Wheeler.
