Canaries

Considering this being the favourite subject for everyone dreaming of becoming a newbie filmmaker. the ones who has made this flick are more comprehended and experienced, but not good enough. there have been made many british indie-movies that are far better than this

its like aretha franklin screams,''its raining men, hallelujha its raining men''.....in a typical welsh village in a typical welsh vale. its new year and what goes up must fall down somewhere and sometime. in this case its an evil alien ,actually 4 with claws like big dippers on their fingers, hunting down and kill parties whenever....

its a bad story, bad timeline and plot, and below accepted acting. filmo are ok but slash and stash are ketchup like ridden. there are a littel giggle here and there, but not enough to call it a comedy.

if you love indie,then watch. if like good movies the way the grumpy old man likes it,then let it be.

So this was advertised to be a Welsh Shaun of the Dead-like sci-fi comedy, sadly it fails hard on most fronts.

It tells the story of a group of friends celebrating new years just as an alien force makes their move against mankind.

The characters are pretty plain and lack gimmicks and the aliens are, well they're basically pale dudes with Lady Deathstrike fingers and they wear..........raincoats. So, yeah.

Comparing it to Shaun of the Dead is optimistic, this just isn't funny. There are a couple of laughs to be had but not enough for a feature movie, in fact in places it gets very serious for extended periods and you forget its a comedy at all.

From a sci-fi perspective it really hammers home the X-Files conspiracy nonsense that is going on in the background away from our heroes, and that's about as interesting and engaging as a 60 minute special on shoes.

Not funny, not interesting and the aliens quite frankly look ridiculous. But wait, the worst part is yet to come! The movies ending, is well............it doesn't have one. Things happen, then you're hit with a to be continued and the credits roll. So this is an incomplete film and chances are it won't get a sequel so it'll never be continued anyway.

Should have been better but they just didn't have much to work with.

The Good:

Some great writing

Robert Pugh

The Bad:

Comes across as cheap in places

No ending

This film has a lot going for it, and deserves a lot more than 4/10. While not original in itself, there are enough extras in the script to make it that bit different. The characters are believable, and it's nice to see aliens attacking Wales for once! It's low budget, and some of the acting, and editing could be better, but it's much better than many bigger budget, star laden affairs. Well worth a watch if you get the chance, definitely better than average.

So wanted it to be good, but it wasnt. Then wanted it to be so bad to become good, but it wasnt.

Ironic that Cwmtwrch was on the map for it's little known sulphur spring or stink water. Now it's known for a little known stink film.

Sorry Boy Bach, a decent Brain Dead or a low budget Welsh cornetto trilogy homage this isnt.

They deserve credit on raising £29,000 and trying though.

I watched this because I adore Kai Owen, but I didn't laugh once while watching this predictably dreadful movie. The effects are absolutely awful, and there's some of the worst US accents and acting (other than Kai) I've seen in along time. Aliens my bottom. The love children of a zombie and a bad Wolverine more like...
