Crossbreed

This is so badly written, a Berkeley student could have done it.

The dialog is extremely bad and unnatural and the acting even worse, seemingly just so they could shoehorn a ridiculously dressed "strong sassy black woman" stereotype into the role of "female black president" (as opposed to President).

If you enjoy Sci-Fi, pick another film

I'm going out on a limb and giving this 4 stars. The story wasn't terrible, the acting was bad, but that happens a lot with nooby actors. I've seen a lot worse, so I at least appreciate the work everyone did, even if it turned out as poor as this is. There were some decent scenes that keep my interest, but not many.

It was just really funny how one guy could sit right in the line of fire, and 5 guys with guns were plastering the wall (and doing NO damage!) right next to him.....(While he cut a few of them down). Or the guy chopping up someone, and NO blood anywhere, even on the machete! hahahah!

Aside from that, if you can stomach low budget, silly scifi movies with really poor fight scenes and dumb lines, go for it!

3 mins in... oh dear, worse than the trailer so far! 7:30 Acting: none yet... 10:00: I think they are going for the cliché world record! 16:00 Naked hooker robot. ✔ 20:00 "Old comrades meet and bond" ✔ 23:04 "This is a simple mission" ✔ 24:00 "Clean and by the book!" ✔ 26:00 "Hesitation can get you killed!" ✔ 29:00 "This is not what we signed up for!" ✔ 35:00 Argh! I can't take it no more! That trailer is the best of this...dreck! If you can believe the inside of a ship's engine room is a space ship, and you can't tell good from bad acting, plus you've never seen a science fiction or action movie, this might be for you.

"Crossbreed" is a pretty straightforward story that pits space marines against a alien bio weapon. It is simple but at moments it strong in representation and aesthetics. Reminiscent of mid-nineties space fare like "Jason X" and Syfy stuff back when it was spelled correctly. Vivica A. Fox is great in her limited role as Commander-in-Chief, Madame President. The marines are stereotypical, but tolerable.

Special effects are a mixed bag of cheap CGI and slightly better game-play level. Still it works and gives an entertaining affectation to the action sequences. The creature design and limited practical effects give "Crossbreed" it's real selling points. Plus add in some quality cinematography and the film is worth the watch. Just remember to go in with b-movie expectations.

Simply embarrassing. Couldn't watch more than 15 min altogether. Too painfully bad. Awful script, amateurish acting, childish artwork...
