Displaced

Its not the worst movie i've ever seen, but it comes real close to it...the stunts are OK, but you just keep wondering why the hell is nobody shooting their gun at the freakin'"class 4" when he's right in front of them, being surrounded by 5 people!! Second of all, the acting, it's just plain afwul. No emotions, and when there are, they are misplaced.

I guess if you like English movies with no depth, bad effects, bad acting but a lot of fighting and shooting then you could watch this, otherwise just leave it...

p.s. i guess the ones voting this movie 10 have probably been used as props!

I just saw this film. I understand that it was a very low budget film and one of the director's first efforts. I have to say that regardless of the problems it has, I am impressed. It would have been an ambitious movie even if it had a studio budget. I am a microbudget filmmaker myself and have to suffer commentary from people who have no idea what I'm dealing with. So I want to congratulate the filmmakers for their hard work. It is obvious to me that they were passionate and driven in their intent. That is something that a "budget" can not buy. The rest is gained through experience. There were problems with the screenplay and dialog. Sometimes I think that it was too dry, stiff. The Humans needed to sound a little more Human. I think that the audience needs to get invested on one of the characters more. The lighting was a bit too hot, at least in the final DVD version. It looked blown out in many places. The lighting could have been finessed some more, and the color controlled better. The angles, composition, lensing and camera movement were GREAT. As well as was the editing. The action was pretty damn good for a low budget film. I've done martial arts in my films too, and trust me, it's really freakin hard. I only have one request. On your next film, please no more graphics identifying people and places. You don't need them. The audience will figure it out. And finally, I want to see what this team does next. It is obvious to me that they respect the audience because they bust their asses to deliver as much as they can. The only thing they lack is a little experience. The only way to gain experience is to make more films. Carry on!

The film begins with a voice-over, explaining some kind of alien threat to Earth and a deal made between some earthlings and aliens regarding experiments on humans, and a few very short scenes that look like they were lifted from another film, all of which lasts for 3 or 4 minutes. This is about as sci-fi as this piece of crap gets; the rest of the movie we see an endless series of low-budget, poorly acted fight sequences. The fights are created by camera juggling, as it's clear most of the actors have no martial arts ability, which means the fights really stink. There's a story about an android working with Brit soldiers to find secret documents, but this is one awful movie. If you can sit through this you're already brain-dead.

Judging by some of the reviews on this site, you would think no one had ever seen an independently produced film. As a hugely ambitious science-fiction adventure clearly made without either budget or professional actors, 'Displaced' is nothing short of astonishing. Rough as the edges may be, owing to apparent financial restraints, the film remains a testament to the skill and tenacity of its director, Martin Holland and producer Mark Strange.

In its current state 'Displaced' is less a completed, commercial movie than it is a calling card by a production team of promise - a six-years-in-the-making showcase for moments of high action and suspense crafted with technical ingenuity and a natural instinct for the pulse of popular cinema. The eye, and the art, of this most resourceful and resilient director and producer team deserve a little more respect.

I was confused from the first 2 Min's of the film!!.. I found it boring, confusing, poorly acted! I have seen soaps with better scripts. In fact.. script was probably on the back of a postage stamp! i turned it off after watching the first hour... shockingly POOR! 2/10 is been generous!! Don't waste your time with the movie!!! Unless you enjoy bad acting... and how the h*** did this get on DVD, in fact someone on benefits could of fronted this movie!

LOL this sums the whole movie...

quote from the over view "Plot Synopsis: This plot synopsis is empty."
