Black Ops - Operação Secreta

What a load of old nonsense. Just brought back memories of getting lost in a multi storey car park, only to realise I was in the wrong multi storey car park.

Black Ops is a low budget horror flick. But it has a unique plot of solider trapped in limbo by the ghost of an innocent they murdered. They're force to relive their decisions over and over again until they get it right and there are consequences each time they fail their attempts. I found the plot to be unique but it did feel like the movie was longer than it needed to be by 20 minutes.

I found this movie to be a horror treat I stumbled upon as there really aren't many military themed horror movies (at least not ones for modern armed forces). I do enjoy military themed horror movies because they're always unique and creative. This movie is no different in that department.

As a horror fan when I watch a movie there's certain things I omit and that's the expectation of high end effects or Oscar winning actors. What I look for is a solid story and well acted execution of that story.

This film delivers that for me. Some might watch the film and pick it apart for the glamour and glitz it lacks but you'll never be able to enjoy any horror movie with that mindset. You've got to approach low budget horror movies with an open mind as low budget movies tend to always the best plot ideas.

This film is distributed under several names; 'The Ascent' AKA 'Stairs' AKA 'Black Ops'. Probably done so the unweary accidentally watch this God awful film twice. A psychological drama that certainly plays with the mind. It certainly disturbed mine.😒

Very average film that could have been executed better.

The interesting storyline which could have been explored in more depth leaves you underwhelmed.

You can see the film has a tiny budget and with this the action sequences dont have the desired effect.

Go elsewhere for similar Groundhog Day style films. Happy Death Day or Edge of Tomorrow spring to mind

Just awful, avoid this please, terrible effects, terrible acting
