Humanity's End - Das Ende naht

I do enjoy Sci-Fi movies when they're done right. Humanity's End did have some good ideas going for it, and is a better movie than I expected it to be if suffering from some very big problems. Technically it's not too bad, I've seen far worse looking films especially from The Asylum. The sets are colourful, the galactic backgrounds are wholly convincing, the ships, their interiors and the planets look cool and the photography is not too choppy. The film at least has some kind of pace(if not particularly exciting), it starts very promisingly and the females are very cute and sexy. Unfortunately while there are far worse out there, the graphics can be quite bad, the nephalium fleet doesn't look remotely convincing and the movements can look unnatural. The explosions are too diluted and somewhat outdated as well. The acting is not particularly good either, the sexiness of the females isn't enough to disguise their blandness and the lead, especially his voice, is really annoying. Their characters don't engage at all, and often act like idiots. But what really sinks Humanity's End is how poor the writing is. The script is made up too much of cheesy humour and jargon that definitely sounds made up which confuses things significantly. The story has some good ideas, that are either never expanded upon or don't make any sense and there isn't really much of a structure either. Overall, decent to look at but poorly written, had much potential but could've been much better. 4/10 Bethany Cox

It's probably exactly what you expect..Rarely do films actually 'Surprise!' you these days...with all the hype given to any movie (regardless of how odd or bad) with a large budget, you get an idea of the movie...especially after a few reviews, what your friends say, and so on and so on....Well the same goes for these movies...the one's you 'Don't' hear about...You don't see the 'stars making the rounds on all thee late night talk shows, promoting their newest flick (& always pretending they have 'no-idea' what the clip is they brought with them)...So these films end up in the usual places...the bargain bins, the blockplaces will have a single copy (usually) and then there's Redbox...who unlike most places, let's you know upfront they have a mixture of the the best movies as they're released and tell you honestly that they have some genuine 'B'- movies...So, yeah, rent this one if you like sci-fi flicks, realizing it was done on a less than stellar budget and cut everyone involved with it some slack...The great thing about it is 'You might just find a real gem' among the 'B'-Movies available, but don't expect it...This has some good points and some low spots...But then again, keep in mind it had a 'B' budget too...

Bad acting, bad script, not too bad CGI, laughable, but in the wrong way...

This movie rates as one of the worst sci-fi movies I have ever watched, it's only saving grace is the cgi which at times can be quite good, Neil Johnson the director must either have been on some mind altering drug or be just plain incompetent to allow the final result to go to the cutting room (where it all should have been cut). Jay Laisne who plays (and I use the term reservedly) the bungling captain Derasi Vorde is not only crushingly bad and unbelievable but also wooden and his childlike acting would not be out of place in a children's TV program.

The plot is boring and predictable, yet another species out to exterminate the human race to become dominant species in the universe (surely there are other more advanced races out there to concentrate on).

I thought it was a comedy when I first started watching it and had a laugh at it, but as the movie droned on I realised it was not meant to be funny and the laughter turned to cringing at every bad dialogue exchange, the idea of the last human being in existence is a fair one but this time it was done very badly and just does not ring true.

Sorry but unless you are at a loss to get to sleep at night do not watch this, but if you suffer from insomnia then by all means watch it.... you will be sleeping in no time at all.

This movie is kind of entertaining for the sci-fi fan. It has many references to other Sci-Fi creations, including Star Trek, Star Wars, Stargate, Battle Star Galatcia and Dune. In fact the film must assume many of the users are familiar with many of these Stories as elements of each are used throughout. For instance Stargates are used both with no explanation of what for. The film is scattered with cheesy humor, that gives it much charm. The start of the movie features a 5+ minute prologue, which in part seems to be put in to extend the movie length. Don't see it to be blown away by special effects. See it when you are in the mood for some grade B Sci-fi.

Sometimes IMDb's comments are quite excessive, you get 10 stars, then another one put 1 star. Most of the time, it worth to watch the movie anyways. But this one.. If you are going to watch this movie, don't expect too much from it. Poor poor poor special effects and discussable acting. It looks like the 80's movies.. This could've been an awesome movie and that's the only reason why I give it 6 stars. With more money and more time, this could've been something awesome! Anyways there is worst, there is better. It's just sad that the producer ain't got a bigger budget. Nevertheless it still worth watching it, just don't expect special effects with high realism or to see your favourite actor.
