Alien: Rubicon

Like another reviewer I thought it was something to do with the Aliens franchise but this movie doesn't even deserve the title of movie, instead it should be called a hodgepodge of how not to act. All the main actors were over doing their roles, especially the man playing the helicopter pilot. Possibly the only actor who played their role correctly was the daughter, she sort of held back her "enthusiasm" and seemed the most normal.

Some of the special effects were good, possibly the only saving grace, though someone needs to learn how to do explosions properly.

All up a waste of money and time.

It doesn't get any worse than this, who writes this crap? Talk about a predictable premise/ Aliens attack a major city instead of a location with little defense. Cheap production values all round with even worse acting. It is ridiculous that these 4 legged aliens could fly these spaceships let alone build them. They have three sets, some cheap White House room set, the inside of a fake helicopter and the inside of the family kitchen with everything else cheap CGI graphics. If you haven't yet wasted your time watching this trash please be advised you will definitely be disappointed that you did.

I had been looking forward to watching this movie, but am now kicking myself for watching it!!! This movie so reminded me of the early SciFi channel's movies. It is that BAD!!! The title makes one think of the "Alien" franchise, but it is NOT about that. I am a Science Fiction buff, but I will NEVER watch another movie like this!!! Totally unworthy of Science Fiction!!! A decent cast, but an excruciating script and ABSOLUTELY POOR script, plus the misleading title, reels in viewers, to an ABSOLUTELY WASTE OF TIME!!! If you want to watch it after reading this review (my first) , be my guest, but I can guarantee you that you will be disappointed!!! If I could have rated it 0, I would have.

I will usually give a movie 20-30 minutes and that was a challenge with this one. I started it based on the Glamour Shots preview and if cream rises to the top this sunk quick. The B budget acting didn't have a chance with the cheesy script. I've seen four or five of these actors in other things and they did a lot better given the tools they had in those movies. This one just needed to be cleaned up from every corner because it had a decent story to be based on. In theory this story has been told multiple times but they did have a different twist with Rubicon. Overall it was a huge strike out.

I cannot believe Asylum got Michael Paré to play in this Alien Romulus copywrite infringement garbage. This studio has got to be breaking laws somehow by duping unsuspecting theater goers who may mistake this for the latest Alien movie Romulus, or even a newer one than that due to the "different" title "Rubicon" It is a crying shame that resources have to be wasted on trash from people who obviously have nothing to offer original in their lives but to steal others ideas and trash them so miserably. I couldn't get through just a few minutes in when I looked up the studio company and saw "Asylum" then I shut it off. Don't waste your time unless you have NOTHING else to watch at all.
