Alien Convergence

Pretty boring...

As Gordo Ramsay would say... "Bland" or "do you use any seasoning?.."

Good on them for getting disabled people to star in it.. but actors would of been a better idea.

Complete disappointment. I really want to give this a 3 star, just reward the actors and crew that really seemed to try, but the script was complete and utter garbage. This was not a cheap effort, maybe not a huge budget, but there was outlay here. And the non-CG photography was not bad. But, as usual, it seems the writer was more worried about getting out 'something', likely due to connections or whatever, instead of taking the time to do it right. This could EASILY been a 4 star movie if someone had done the research to write a script with more realistic dialogue and events ... and doubled/tripled the time spent on CG.

ALIEN CONVERGENCE starts off with an alien invasion. Then, it switches to a group of pilots training to fly mind-controlled aircraft. Emma Harper (Caroline Ivari) is head of the project, when she's not busy bonding with her father.

The alien monsters can fly in and out of phase, making them invulnerable to conventional fighter jets. Not-so surprisingly, Emma's squad is called upon to come to the rescue.

This is a monster movie, and once in a while a monster pops up to remind us of this. Mostly, it's about Emma, her dad, and the crew Emma commands. Said group have disabilities, so, the underlying message is one of using our heads, and not letting obstacles stop us. That's fine.

What sinks this movie are the poorly-realized, CGI aliens. Let's face it, flying cartoons are not scary! At all! In a movie like this, it would have been better to not show them...

This is literally an attempt to trick you into thinking you're watching an Alien film or an anime in that universe or SOMETHING. Nope, just a literal garbage fire whos entire $12 budget was spent on a graphic that looks just enough like Ridley Scotts Alien to get you to click it.

The only thing worth looking at in this film is pretty Caroline Ivari. The plot is dreadful and most of the acting performances leave a lot to be desired. Cheapie special effects don't help.
