The Last Hope

Bad acting, shaky camera, bad editing, bad special effects... It's a low budget disaster. It's not worth your time. Just leave it alone and rewatch the remake of Dawn of the Dead instead.

Guess the director never saw a good movie before. Nothing but close-up shots of the actors faces while they are talking. Couldn't make it thru the first 20 minutes, then fast forward to see if there was anything better than the close-ups, Nope.

For a zombie movie, the storyline is pretty good. Some of the acting is decent as well, some is pretty bad. Had this been made with a much better flow with smoother transitions, less verbose speeches, camera angles that make more sense instead of looking like a home movie, it might get up to a 6 or 7 rating. At one point, there was a long speech by a main character with the left hand side of the screen obscured by some guy's head. The actor reciting the speech didn't do a bad job of it, but the dialog was overdone and a long speech at that time was uncalled for. There were a few really good ideas in the movie that gone to waste since the film could have been refined into something much better.

Not too bad for a low budget film, I get the whole wobbly camera thing. Effects were not too bad for the budget. Biggest thing was the acting. Way to forced and not natural at all which unfortunately makes the whole movie below par. With what I understand they used real X soldiers for some of the roles. Been in the army and if they were real soldiers, I'll go it. Better acting could have made this low budget a hell of a lot better. Love seeing Aussies giving it a crack, but this is not winning any awards soon, certainly not for acting anyway.

This is realy bad, bad effects, bad acting and the filming is done by a monkey or a drunk cameramen. I had to write this to let others know to be aware. because a 6,5 rating is obvious a troll rating.
