Age of Tomorrow

I hardly know where to start telling you how this movie is so terrible. The acting if you can call it that was mostly appalling. The script appeared determined to use every cliché stolen from any action movie the writers have ever seen. From "Is that all you've got" and "Blow the thing to hell" to "Let's do this" and the classic, "Go, go, go, go go." The story had more holes than a sieve but in case you are mad enough to want to see this I won't explain how. The CGI had it's moments but not nearly enough to make up for this poor excuse for a sci-fi movie and Robert Picardo didn't do to bad a job in his role as a general. Give this one a miss.

Dear Joel Hodgson and Mike Nelson; the ultimate film makers for some new seasons of MST3K are finally here, just think, your very own bad movie making crew, introducing ASYLUM with THE WORST films to ever make it to any screen. It might be a bit overkill for the MST3K team and I wouldn't want to harm any robots in the viewing of these movies. I seen an appetizing movie, went to check it out first, and nearly laughed myself to death reading the reviews, come to find out it is a film from Asylum, I didn't want to ruin my fun by viewing the movie.

read the reviews, they are so much better than an Asylum movie, and I really gotta say, some of these reviews are just hysterical

Interesting in that it makes you think about why it was so bad and other films are so good. It seems to me that the screenplay was the main problem as it could have been a hilarious spoof with a good writer, in which case the amateurish production values, direction and photography would be largely irrelevant or even help it.

The best part was seeing Robert Picardo from Star Trek: Voyager where he did a great job as The Doctor, while the worst part was seeing him in such a poor film. Picardo had an unintentionally funny line: "We're being told, from the sheer size of it, on impact, nothing will live." I and my friend burst out laughing. How did he keep a straight face?

There are many bad movies and then there is this film. You can tell that some of the actors tried to justify their participation for themselves, whilst being in front of the camera. I wonder what the auditions must have been like...

The plot is riddled with holes and the main hero character has a nonsensical story arc to follow along the way. Dialogue is so bad it hurts!

Some of the costumes actually look halfway decent, given the low budget of the production. And while the location sets are not bad looking and set the tone for the action well, the production was simply lazy and did not prepare them at all. For instance there is a scene later in the film where the hero and his comrades first set foot on an alien world. While the scenery looks interesting and the trees and plants have all been made to look otherworldly by giving them weird colors in post production, the illusion only lasts for a few seconds at most. Why? Well, they forgot to remove the educational signs sticking out of the ground in front of every freaking plant they walk past. They obviously filmed this in a botanical garden of sorts and did not bother with hiding that fact at all. Incredible!

If this movie was actually entertaining to watch, I could recommend it at least for a few laughs on a rainy Sunday afternoon, but as it stands this is the worst pile of rubbish I have ever seen.

You have been warned!

Seriously, I would not give this film the time (which I obviously have, hence this review lol) in terms of watching. It has been very badly made, very cheap and tacky, very poor acting and special effects are awful. As they say ' I'll give this a pass '......never a truer word said. This movie is diabolical trash. My expectations were, slightly, a little high for this movie, but after watching just 5 minutes of it, I knew then that it was very much a exceedingly low budget movie done, even for this trash of a movie, very much on a basis of ' quickly done with little thought ever being put into it '. I do not think there is 1 positive thing I can say about this movie.........lines and lines of negative appraisal most definitely. To conclude, give this movie a wide berth.
