Grey Skies

I liked the dialogue yet the story is a bit weak. Interesting flick, nothing real spectacular and watchable.

I happened to get the chance to sit down in 2020 to watch the 2010 movie "Grey Skies". Now, I hadn't even heard about this sci-fi horror movie from director Kai Blackwood prior to sitting down to watch it.

But hey, at least there were no expectations to the movie for me. So writers Mark Reilly and Michael Cornacchia had all the opportunities to impress and bedazzle me with "Grey Skies".

However, they just failed to do that. This movie, while it definitely had some interesting enough aspects to the storyline and the promise of something that could prove good, it just failed completely. The storyline was just too mundane and generic, and the movie suffered terribly from being way too predictable.

The characters in the movie were adequate, although it wasn't really characters that you invest anything in, for some reason. They had good enough actors and actresses to portray the characters, but there was just something about the characters that failed to make them pop out on the screen.

The special effects in the movie were bland. And that was sort of a massive setback for the movie, because a sci-fi movie needs proper and believable special effects.

In fact, I actually fell asleep for a short while during the movie. It was just that uninteresting.

My rating of "Grey Skies" is a mere two out of ten stars. Mostly because of the production value that the movie had.

Let me just say this at the beginning, don't waste your time on this. The only other movie worse than this is Chu Chu and the Philly Flash, which I didn't rent but suffered through. How anyone got 1.5M to make this is beyond my understanding. Goes absolutely nowhere in a hurry. Almost couldn't make it through the first 10 minutes and considered turning off. After sitting there for 30 minutes, I realized I'd made a bit of a time commitment and needed to see it through to the end. There are so many stupid aspects of the movie that it makes you wonder how the writers could produce this while laughing so hard. Haven't look to see what kind of return they got on the movie compared to the 1.5M. Would be interesting to see.

This is probably the worst movie that has ever befallen me in my whole career as a movie-buff / slouch.

Horrible writing - a 9th grader could write scarier scripts. Horrible acting - the cast make Ben Afflek look like de Niro. Horrible f/x - on par with Sesame St. Good location - but thoroughly neglected. Half-decent plot - besmirched & buried beneath everything else. Production - isn't too bad for a budget film.

It would be in everyone's interest if Kai Blackwood abandons his dream of a directing career, and concentrate on his day job instead. Look out for this gem in your local supermarket's bargain bin!

I cant even start to try and explain this so called movie. who is the black girl at the beginning you ask? dunno, you never see her again.. I feel as though I've lost iq points just finishing this crap. no plot, no story line, no direction, no nothing... only good thing is you get to see some pretty nice boobs...
