Terminal Force

Saw this the other night on late night TV. A piece of poop really! There are some fine performances by anyone who died in the film, because considering the (over) acting, the dead ones were the most believable!

The plot steals from extensively from Terminator & T2. Being a 1995 release, one would expect more! Moreover, the poor optical effects makes this feel like 80s schlock rather than 90s SF.

I also have to mention one scene where the directors tried their best to pull off the night club scene from Blade Runner. Looked more like the cafeteria scene from my local senior citizen's club.

If you watch this again, watch out in the club scene for the so called "Chinese" writing on the walls. Imagine someone trying to write in English without knowing the Roman alphabet and that's what you had on those walls, utter gibberish.

I recommend you see this whilst inebriated, apparently the writers were!

At first I wanted to blame the actors for their bad acting and then I wanted to blame the director, but I believe the largest blame should go to the screenwriter. Every performance in this film (even by the extras) sucks (that's the director's fault), but the words they are attempting to utter are so bad that the problem must start with the screenwriter. Not only is the dialog bad, the plot doesn't follow any logical sense.

Don't waste any part of your life watching this movie!

Masters of the Universe meets Terminator meets Barbarella in a Roger Cormanesque low budget 90's TV-movie, which resembles more of a bad 80's TV-movie in every way. The looks and the sounds of the film give out an expression, that the expiration date was like a decade earlier, and even the star of the film hasn't really been relevant since then. Playboy cover girl of December '87 and the former wife of Sylvester Stallone, Brigitte Nielsen, plays the Lady-Terminator-He-Man-Barbarella as badly as she can.

The single best thing in this movie was Roger Aaron Brown as a detective. He had some funny lines and did a pretty good job at delivering them.

Terminal Force aka Galaxis is as bad as it sounds, and not in a good way, but at least we get to see Sam Raimi do a cameo. Yayy!!!

Once again we had a reviewer who was criticizing a movie but was not a critic. This movie was entertaining and centered on a civilization that required a crystal to maintain order and peace for its people. The story opens with its people under attack by an evil empire led by Kyla who wants to posses the crystal. Tarkin leads the peaceful people with his sister Ladera. The Septarians are forced in to an underground bunker to preserve the crystal. HoweverKyla breaks breaks through kills Tarkin steals the crystal and flees. However, Ladera arrives before her brother passes on and he let's her know there is another crystal on Earth. The story shifts to Earth. The script while simple is easy to follow. Jed is the young man on Earthnthat discovers the crystal while in Peru. He had borrowed money from corrupt kingpin and at this time had no resources to pay Victor back. Appearing on Earth for the crystal are Ladera and Kyla. What follows is process of the local police, Jed, Ladera and Kyla trying to obtain the crystal. The action is great, the effects are okay and the acting is great. These are professional actors performing in a sci fi movie. Many of the earthlings are dumbfounded at first and act the part very well. The two aliens Ladera and Kyla perform their roles with aplomb as well. All in all a very entertaining sci fi movie.

First off in an era of trash bad CG effects this movie made in 1995 had none of this, honest i tough the special effects where pretty good.

This movie deserves a better rating then a mediocre 2.8 maybe its the hate for Bridgette Nielsen or else but this movie is not half as bad.
