Carolina's Calling

If this is a scifi movie, then it's a very mediocre one ...

if it's a comedy, then it's failing to deliver since after having watched it for more than 20 minutes i'm still waiting for a giggle or something ...

and the story, 'a revolutionary invention that can solve energy problems but oil cartels don't want it to be mass-produced because it's not good for business ...' is also a cliche' that's been touched and made into movies more than just a few times ...

acting is ok, but direction has made the overall experience into a 'product' of cheap amateurish art? So, i don't know how many stars out of ten would anyone give this on IMDb or anywhere?

............if you watch this movie.

I mean, it really can't get dumber than this. If you DO WATCH this movie, I think you will literally cause damage to your brain.

Acting? Horrible.

Special effects? Childish and pathetic.

Plot? Ridiculous..

I am just amazed that someone FUNDED something like this and said, "YEP! That's a great idea for a movie."

It's unbelievable.

Don't waste your time.

Not only is everything correct in the previous review - but to further enhance details of the plot - the actual script writing and dialogue is so mundane and tedious I remain baffled as to why anyone would want to actually film it or indeed think of acting in it. I have seen more convincing Kindergarten Nativity stuff. Just awful.

So three shady scientists fire up a blue box of energy, which will make all other forms of energy obsolete, and they don't even put on safety goggles. Stars antonio sabato as marty haas. Something or someone is calling marty to the east coast, but he's not sure why. We spend a lot of time on that idea, which they borrowed from close encounters. The script needs major work and most of the acting is less than stellar. I wondered if it was aimed at a younger crowd, but there is swearing, violence, even talk of bull genitals, so i guess it's not meant for kids! Later on, we revisit the energy invention; apparently, the explosion from the energy box knocked an alien's space ship out of the sky, right into the carolinas. An hour in, we have a plot! Marty agrees to help the alien. No details needed, we'll just get a welder and do it. So silly. I made it through to the end, but it took a lot of effort. Directed by michael saquella.

Charade over the issue , are there aliens in space? Its made on a buck, with very low quality special effects, its actors are b-grade semi pro local actors that returns now and then in low budget ''feature'' length flicks, so im familiar with the faces, except for ''bob'', the alien, with a head of a watermellon and 5 instead of 3 fingers...

its a scifi comedy that may entertain because of its silly storyline and plot, its slow and filled with props stolen from a wrekced submarine or any military radio shack, so lets just say its weird science and stop there, cause the grumpy old man gives a 5 for the try, it aint boring, and filled with love and emotions at homestandard level. Its a couldbeseen movie if everything else flops...
