Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
Sadly Over-hyped
Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.
The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
Believe me, I am one of those voices crying out in the wilderness, trying to get people to wake up to the hazards of EMPs and the people in the Deep State who are itching to use them, but using this movie in my information arsenal?? NOPE! That's the equivalent of shooting myself in the foot.The appearance of Alex Jones in the beginning of the movie pretty much was the highlight and it just went downhill from there. I haven't even gotten to the part where the EMP was detonated and I'm already bored with the bad acting, the awkward staging of the cast and the forced dialog that seems like the director required 10 Libertarian talking points per paragraph. UGH, just hope when the real thing comes, I can tell everyone I come in contact with, thanks for not being a wooden, poorly rehearsed actor with an obvious agenda!
...than the enemy redshirts the father of this film's director (and I use both those terms lightly) once disposed of by the hundreds throughout his own cinema career. But Chuck Norris was never in a movie quite this ham-handedly inept. Although much of the acting is actually passable, despite detractors elsewhere on this site, enough of it stands out like Sofia Coppola in "The Godfather: Part III" to detract, and even the more accomplished thespians involved in this lifeless misfire (I'm looking at you, Diane Ladd) are hampered by info-dump dialogue, broad-brush characters, and a plot structure that would make Syd Field wince if he was still alive. That Alex "InfoWars" Jones was cast in a cameo role should tell you all you need to know about this production. Strictly for insomniacs, there's virtually nothing in this lo-fi paranoid vision to hold your attention.Put it this way: when you've got that DVD case in your hot little "Hot dog! This has got to be better than that 'Red Dawn' remake!" hands, give the plot summary on the back cover a once-over, and then put the DVD back where you found it. That is all you need, I guarantee, to get your money's worth of prepper entertainment from "Amerigeddon".
With the budget and feel of a Hallmark after-school special from a parallel universe, this movie delivers to anyone familiar with most New World Order (NWO) conspiracy theories. I could lay out some inconsistencies in the plot but I don't want to give out any spoilers. Let me just say, it's all here: U.N. takeover of the US, EMP bombs, US Presidential\Political sellouts, Constitutional and 2nd Amendment flag waving, whistleblowers, you name it, it's mentioned. Curiously and refreshingly, there is no racist or anti-Muslim themes.Preppers guides, Faraday cages, Ham radios, home power generators, John Deere products and a still in your new hilltop stone fortress of a house will all be on your shopping list after watching this movie.The acting, as you can imagine, is about as wooden as a Hallmark after-school movie as well but they deliver the lines they need to keep the movie going. The 'battle at the Texas compound' and 'helicopter showdown' stretches the imagination a bit too but the girls are hot ...just saying.Lastly, this did have the feeling of a pilot for a future series or at least a part 2.
Mike Norris is in hospital at the moment for a suspected poisoning incident. He has be recovering but had a close call at one of his movie events from an unknown individual who may have placed a suspicious substance on him. Keep an eye out for how he is doing. The movie is great for people who do not know much about issues that occur behind what is seen on the mainstream news. For others who have done their research it may not be as satisfying. I watched with a friend and he found it interesting because he has started getting involved in reading about global issues. Amerigeddon is great for Patriots and general family by in large.
