Sentinel: Die Invasion

Where to begin this review.

I would like to start with a question. How did this train wreck of a film get financed? How is it that movies like this can get $ and get made?

Is it because you have relatives with too much money to spare, or contacts in the industry you can beg?

The acting was terrible, just over the top and beyond amateurish. Did not care about a single character and really was rooting for the aliens to finish them all off.

The CGI and special effects, I've seen grade 8 students do better on a laptop than this movie has.

Directing is where this movie shines, NOT!

How can you call yourself a director and even put your name to this mess. This movie is to be avoided at all costs, don't waste your time as I did mine watching then writing a review to spare others the pain of this project.

Very bad movie. Very very bad!

The spirit of the Sci-Fi channel is alive and well with this actually quite amusing yarn. Our planet has been invaded by a malevolent alien species but there might yet be some hope. Under the direction of the President (Michael Paré) three scientists hiding out on the moon are to go back through time and see if they can't circumvent the dastardly activities of the eponymous beastie. "Damon" (Jason R. Moore), "Robin" (Ellie Patrikios) and "Jarrod" (Neil Cole) are the intrepid gang upon whom the survival of our population depends. Oh well, that's us doomed then - these three actors are truly appalling as the story risibly unfolds like an early edition of "Dr. Who" that was involved in a car accident with "Stargate-SG1". To be fair, some of the visuals are not terrible and the beastie itself bears a slight resemblance to the "Predator", but the writing is woeful and the director has clearly concluded that it might be a scintilla more box-office if he keeps the cast (and their accents) as international as possible. Personally, I think that might just have served to annoy way more nations that it needed to as it plods along in an embarrassing fashion that gets you very quickly on the side of the guy in the rubber suit. If you thought "Wing Commander" (1999) was bad - well just you wait...

Well... I am 50 minutes into watching this 'movie' and thought I would just write my take on this movie.... because typing this is more entertaining!!!! DO NOT listen to the couple reviews that say this is a good movie, because it is NOT.

Like others have said, 'is this movie a school project'?? While watching it, the plot is kinda non existent, it jumps from scene to scene and its just soooo corny. Some of the time, they are just standing in front of a green screen and its so amateurish. Other times they are just using empty basements or other facilities and its just so bad.

If you wanna spend 90 minutes to see what a BAD movie looks like, go for it.... but don't say I didn't warn you.... there are just so many other movies to spend your time on.

Perhaps the worse movie I watched this year, to be honest for sure the worse. It's really painful, bad script hollow characters awful interpretation. The firsts 25 minutes is maybe the worse...the development of the story is slowly and definitely boring, the alien seems no cleaver enough to conquest the planet and the solution they presented really weak...and the end? The conclusion you don't get humour, drama, sci-fi...nothing. I am not sure how much was spent do film it but for sure a completely wast of money. After watch I was so disappointed...this is the only reason I am writing this review.

Just the other day I saw a movie that was so bad, I gave it one star. At the time, I never would have guessed I'd see another terrible movie so soon. It's like the gods of cinema are punishing me for not turning off the TV and getting out of the house more often.

This was complete trash. Poor acting, writing, direction, sets, score, cinematography... You name it, and this film failed. Even Michael Pare couldn't raise this above 1 star, and he typically adds at least a little something to the many B-movies he's made. (Though this isn't even a B-movie, it's a Z-movie. No, it's a ZZZZZZ-movie.)

I won't go into specifics, but believe me, even if I did, I wouldn't have to mark this as "spoilers" because there is absolutely nothing I this film that I could spoil more than was already spoiled by the folks behind this trash.

Do NOT waste your time, please!!! I say this as a friend. True, I don't know you, but I'll temporarily become your friend just so I can warn you to stay away.
