Dominion

I wish I could have given this zero stars or worse. Maybe negative stars should be an option.

OK, a truly awful movie sometimes appears on supermarket shelves and sometimes we get taken in and pay a few pounds or dollars for it. We learn by experience.

This is more serious. This is a crime. This is not a movie of any kind. This is a bit like dummy websites on the net which sound interesting but contain only links to scams. Except it doesn't even fulfil a purpose of that kind, or any purpose that I can understand.

I really want to understand how a crime like this was perpetrated. I thought maybe some studio in the straight-to-DVD market had some stray footage from a movie (from the 1980s) which never got made. They asked an aspiring director to make something out of it, to make a few bucks back from whatever investment there was. We all know about good movies which have come from something like that. Unfortunately this is not one of those. I don't know what this is or how it ever got made. Or how it ever appeared on the DVD shelves of Sainsburys UK at the price of 5 whole pounds, at number 43 in the DVD chart!

Have you ever found yourself talking to someone who believes Earth is flat, only Rednecks are kidnapped by aliens, women are from Venus or Biden writes his own speeches? None are true and thinking Dominion: The Last Star Warrior, as it's also called, is worth watching is also untrue. Let me describe this two star movie for folks who have a high tolerance for self aggravation.

The acting is worse than a first grade school play. At least children can be funny or accidentally inventive and unpredictable. The adults in this video are terribly bad with no excuse. To pretend otherwise is like saying The Kardashians are normal people. As for the plot there isn't any. It's more like shifting sand being a nuisance as it gets inside your melting sneaker in the Sahara. The writing or script is beyond bad. I think the whole movie script was a mere brief discussion that started at a bar then was postpone for serious drinking, to be continued on the fly during the first day of filming on location. Sets and props, none. Cinematography: Taken randomly from online copy of whatever could vaguely fit together with no logical possibility of science or common sense.

In short this is not a real movie but is a waste of time. I stopped watching this after fifty minutes. That was enough punishment for a few weeks. Go watch Rambo shoot exploding arrows who is more deadly and believable than not ever being hit by endless men firing automatic weapons at him.

OK, the special effects were laugh-inducing and sometimes the acting was overboard, but I have seen many movies much worse. The story was interesting. The score was pretty good though it felt like the editor, director, and music weren't always on the same page. The acting was fine, though I feel like some of the characters may not have been cast well. I especially didn't like Jaelen, although the actor was fine. I would have liked a little more Jeff Bridges / Starman.

I didn't like the ending - cost the move a star or two in my rating. I did make it all the way to the end though.

All the 1 and 2 star reviews aren't making "sense" so I wanted to put my 2 "cents" in.

I love a good invasion/end of the world as we know it movies. This rolled across the top of my Kindle for Amazon Prime so I figured why not?

I lasted 23 minutes before I gave up the ghost. I tried rolling ahead to several points hoping to see something, anything, that would peak my interest. I did not. Boring lines, boring action, boring characters. The alien break up with the human was even boring.

There was some decent scenery depicting different areas of New Mexico, but that seems to be this movie's only redeeming quality. An alien with some sort of personality would have helped tremendously. Maybe then a connection could have been made.

An interesting premise, some lovely cinematography and pretty decent acting, but it takes SO LONG for a scene to play out. I had to keep hitting the +10 seconds button on my remote.
