Battle Drone

Movie is by no means terrible, not great... But not syfy original bad.

Action scenes are pretty dope, kinda comedic at some points with the slow mo but they also use slow mo quite artistically. Character interactions are fine, sometimes humorous. Acting though isn't half bad, act pretty darn good.

If you're looking for a quick action movie with little plot and just tons of shooting then this is totally it. No regrets in watching it, even if it wasn't all that great.

Remember when Michael Pare was once a rising A-list movie star in major Hollywood releases? Well, that was such a long time ago, that I would understand why you may think that he has always slummed it in low budget B movies such as this one. Now, I definitely have nothing against B movies - I watch them all the time, and they can be pretty enjoyable at times. But this particular one, while far from the worst I have seen, is pretty bland stuff for the most part. Oh, the director does try to throw in some fancy camera tricks here and there(such as "bullet time" shots), but they come across as pretentious and in-your-face instead of being cool and blowing your mind. But that's not the real problem with this movie. The main problem with the movie is that while there is plenty of action, for the most part it has a very routine and familiar feel to it. It isn't exciting, it doesn't make you care for the protagonists' survival, and it isn't much better than simply showing people casually shooting their guns endlessly. The movie is fairly well photographed, but the pretty look of everything doesn't add much.

Oh, and the title is wrong - it should have been pluralized.

Decent for a B movie. When you start watching it you want to stay till the end.

I enjoyed it, a tad too much slow-mo for my liking but the actors all did a good job and the cgi was decent. I liked the banter and comradery, did it have faults yes, was it as good as expendables or the a team, no but both were huge budget movies with our times best actors and action heroes. It's better than a B movie, feels good and made with heart, as such I grade it comparing it to Expendables and the A-Team, therefore 5/10 when I give Expendables and the A-Team 8/10.

This is very clearly an attempt to glom on to several other franchise movies of the same ilk

Having said that, the acting was pretty solid especially from a former Disney star playing a quirky sociopath.

The slow mo was very overused to the point of making some ill.

The drones were very generic and their wasnt enough background on the whole origin of them.

Good flick to just sit on your couch and have a few drinks while watching
