Nemesis 5: The New Model

This movie is total crap, the first Nemesis was pretty good can you believe it was filmed in 1992 and the special effects, the way the movie was filmed is more professional then this pile of garbage, that is amateur at best, with the worst FX i have seen on a sci fi movie, its part of a so called Nemesis franchise......... why is this so amateurish? awful from start to finish, when you cringe at the first frame you know you are in for a long awful movie.

I came into this thinking it would be something interesting to watch. I was so wrong. I managed to skip through the long opening credits then had enough at the 7 minute point. I have seen some doozies that are crap, and this is yet another masterpiece of crap to add to the pile.

OMG! I really like Nemesis. Nemesis 2 was watchable but not a good movie. 3 was terrible. 4 was extremely bad. Now this is beyond words. I am only 30 minutes into it, it is so hard to watch. The entire running length is 70 minutes, yet the first 10 minutes is the credits... twice with about 2 minutes of crappy intro between. There are large bits of filler, watching the desert. The acting, did they just grab a bunch of mates? If it was a film students first attempt at making a movie as a school project, well... it will still be bad, but you have to start somewhere. This is really really really bad, on every level. Acting, Plot, CGI, and this 70 minutes heavily filled in movie is just sooooo boring. It's almost cringe worthy in every scene.

I usually count on the ratings on IMDB but wow. How this "movie" got anything above a 3 is beyond me. From the bad acting to the grade school special effects to the guy with a mini cam cinematography. Sorry gang, you really got this one wrong.

The New Model is the 10th movie in the Cyborg/Nemesis franchise which started all the way back in 1989 with Jean Claude Van-Damme's Cyborg. 21 years after the last movie from the series was made (Nemesis 4 1996) it returns with this "delight".

You see the movies have never been been good, they've simply ranged from bad to very bad but this is certainly a new low.

Sue Price returns yet again as Alex though only briefly. I can only assume she returned for the nostalgia or must have been desperate for money.

You see here is the issue, though all the Cyborg/Nemesis movies were bad they at least looked the b-movie part whereas this is something else altogether. The New Model is a hyper low budget independent movie which truth be told I'm absolutely stunned at the quality of (Or lack thereof). Instead of professional b-movie, this is VHS camcorder, toy laser guns and dreadful Adobe Aftereffects sfx.

No really, I can't stress enough how bad it looks. It's one stage up from being done on someones phone, the acting is some of the worst I've seen in years, the sfx are cringe inducing and the whole thing is really embarrassing.

Whatever my opinions of the franchise it really didn't deserve this. Considering they started in the 80's and this was released in 2017 it raises all kind of questions why this is the ugliest and cheapest of them all.

Incredibly there is another one in production, this is a franchise that died in the 90's but nobody had the heart to tell it.

The Good:

Absolutely nothing

The Bad:

Beyond ugly

Dreadful CGI

Cringe inducing acting

The fight sequences are some of the worst ever put to film

Awful filler scenes

Stock screams
