Featured reviews
It's ok, it had some good moments, some boring moments; there are some scenes I just did not understand at all for one reason or the other as they made no sense. Without giving any spoilers, I'll leave it up to you, but it just made no common sense for some to be...where no kids should be.. All 3 female actresses were not very good and may be it wasn't their fault but the fault of the directors and the bad script
The story is very cheesey. I don't believe actors were right for this one, it just felt a bit amateurish and cheesy.
Script had a lot of holes.
I get it, it's a Sci-fi, but it should also make at least some basic common sense, and a lot of things did not throughout the whole movie.
5.2/10. Anyone giving it more than a 6 is probably involved in the movie... There are a lot better movies from China and this is not one of them.

Overall production is great, the story makes relative sense, the characters have some depth to them, the CGI is outstanding. I personally love the overall aesthetic of the movie. Cool suits, freaky aliens, everything an FPS gamer could ever dream of. The biggest problem for me is the pacing is just too fast. I can't appreciate the beautiful scenes long enough, the action sequences are great but it's also ruined by the constant changes of the camera angle which then becomes unwatchable. I was so hyped for this movie, but sadly it's a disappointment that could've been easily fixed with a better director.
A for effort? Unfortunately effort doesn't do much in this day and age. The all-star veteran cast plays a set of extremely stereotypical characters that are easily forgotten. The dialogues are bland, the action scenes are unmemorable, and there seems to be very few logic behind the settings. The inclusion of the little girl is so painfully stereotypical of such Cantonese films that you feel like you are transported back to the 80s. If this movie is supposed to be Louis Koo's love letter to sci-fi films, its a commendable job as it offers so little in terms of modern sci-fi. And if this movie is supposed to represent Hong Kong's movie industry in the new age, that would be pretty tragic.
Warriors of Future is a Hong Kong sci-fi film, released on Netflix. The story is very simple (don't except any depth or Oscar acting) as it relies on the CGI.
There are armour suits that look like Iron Man, various battle scenes with a giant plant, some zombie insects, and a few random robots.
In terms of CGI, it is quite impressive. The actions are pretty quick. Overall, it has all the elements of a sci-fi genre film with a bit of emotion here & there.
Towards the end, there is some massive struggle on a highway where robots are chasing down our heroes and it is really thrilling.
Overall It is a decent film for a one-time watch, if you are a fan of SCI-FI.

The story is basically bits and pieces of many other better movies in this genre, with added unnecessary melodramatics. That's not to say it isn't worth a watch, because there are many awesome action and fight scenes, and although a little sloppy at first, the visual effects do get better and are actually impressive for a non-Hollywood production. The story is extremely cliched and predictable, so don't expect anything revolutionary here, and you'll notice some plot and technical issues. It's like each of the three writers picked their favorite Hollywood film in this genre and mashed it all together. The editing could've been better, and the directing had many typical rookie mistakes. The pacing was spot-on, as was the score. The casting and performances are decent for the most part, cheesy dialogue aside. If you're a fan of this genre and have nothing better to watch, you'll enjoy this one.
