The Millennium Bug

Independent movies always rock, but this one was well done. Great camera angles, great sound, and great BUG. No CGI, couldn't have been pulled off better! I loved the over the top acting of the Crawfords.

I'm from the Midwest and we see families like this all the time, right? Makes for great entertainment and my favorite is Fij Crawford. The Bug was interesting in it's movement, very realistic, not sure how I know how a giant bug moves, but looked scary enough to me. Not sure what to make of the birth scene, but made good subject to talk about around the water cooler. What will an earlier version of the Bug look like? Prequel, sequel, bring it on, can't wait... Viva la Bug!

What schlock. Don't waste your time. Other reviewers have explained the tragedy of this movie. Its not really about the Millenium Bug event at all, more like a gore saw film in tandem with Deliverance. Enough said!

The makers of 'millennium bug' must have realised the dilemma they faced before they started shooting but carried on regardless. That dilemma is how do you make a feature length movie when you are really good at creating monster effects but lousy at everything else.The answer is quite simple : rip off (very badly) characters and ideas from successful genre flicks , in this case the sawyer family from the Texas chainsaw massacre, story tropes from the backwards horror subgenre and then copy and paste them to the template of any bog standard monster movie Also bathe every scene in retina damaging lighting to detract from the ultra fake looking sets. lastly cast the most hammy and hysterical amateur thespians to delivery your dreary and cliched dialogue. One of the film companies involved in this movie is called no CGI films and yes 'millennium bug' can claim to some damn fine tangible creature effects work, on the flipside i wouldn't be surprised if no talent for script writing films, we're also involved. 3 for the effects, 1 for the rest of the film

This is really underrated this movie is a fun ride as a whole. as a sci-fi horror fan iam satisfied with this movie. i always prefer watching movies over 5/10 but this is an exception

I happened to find this movie by sheer random luck and decided to give it a go, despite the fact that I didn't really have any hopes for it, given the fact that it did seem to be one of those awful Sci-Fi movies just from the presentation on the cover.

And I will say, now that I have watched it, that it could have been worse. "The Millennium Bug" actually turned out to be a semi-enjoyable movie, which was a nice surprise. And what made it so was perhaps a combination of the way-out-there storyline and some of the colorful characters; here I am thinking of the folks living isolated out in the forest, of course.

"The Millennium Bug" is not a movie that boasts any kind of impressive special effects or CGI, not in the least. The effects in the movie were, from what I reckon, all physical effects, meaning that they didn't resort to using CGI. And that is in itself an impressive feat, as some people cling on to the old school type of effects. But compared to other movies from 2011, then "The Millennium Bug" is hopelessly outdated.

And while we are on the special effects, then I will say that the creature effects were actually good enough, despite the fact that the humongous creature looked like something taken straight from a child's drawing.

This is hardly a movie that you will pick up and watch for a second or third time. Once you have seen it the first time, that is basically all you need. This movie just simply doesn't have the contents to support more than a single viewing.

"The Millennium Bug" had some good moments here and there, and in my opinion it was mainly some of the quirky characters that salvaged the movie and made it sort of watchable and semi-enjoyable.

All in all, then "The Millennium Bug" scores a less than mediocre rating from me, landing on a four out of ten stars.
