Dune Drifter

Come on first this movie does not deserve a 1 its not that bad of course clear up the fake reviews with the 8-9-10 too because it certainly does not deserve such a high rating.

The effects are quit good if you compare this to the awful asylum movies. For the budget they did a great job with that. Looking at the FX the costumes and all they where able to do this with 100k even the spaceship battle at the start of the movie are well done.

Its a sci fi very low budget movie. I am giving it a 5 for the effort also the acting was not that bad compared to today standards of beautiful people with no brain.

"How can we sell this piece of movie gold? Think damn you, think!"

"I know! Stick the word DUNE big as brass on the cover art, then add the word Drifter in tiny writing."

"Right, that's the plan, meeting adjourned."

Luckily I didn't see the rating on this before watching this movie. It's better than many 6 star movies and it certainly isn't stupidly unrealistic like even a few big budget movies. The sci-fi part is quite good and despite the low budget it's quite good what the team has achieved. The story line is a bit slow but still faster than a few of the reknowned series. That's good enough for me to watch it once and enjoy it. A good story and execution also helps.

It's definitely not going to win oscars but for a low budget flick it actually wasn't bad. Pacing was overall fine, acting was sub par and it wrapped up very fast but that's to be expected in B flicks. Worth a one time watch for those not afraid of B movies.

The practical cockpits and very good vfx models were apperacted and retro as was the location shooting but it weapon effects and the exploding ships looked cheap and while the story carried it self well the universe could have used some padding out .
