Ghost Recon: Alpha

Besides its being only 25 odd minutes it was defiantly worth it! All the cgi was done great especially the creation of one of the machines. A small bit of bad cgi during a scene with the unknown machine however nothing else went wrong. acting was good and the plot was great. There were great futuristic devices and weapons as well as good all round crew. i have to add more words in here for the review so ill just say that you should give this short video a chance. most are boring and not worth watching however i really enjoyed this one and will be checking up on another entry! hopefully soon! cant wait for another! they should make a TV series or something!

Okay lets cut to the chase GHOST RECON ALPHA is a not so much a short film but a 20 minute advert for a video game of the same name . That said if you want 20 minutes of shoot 'em up carnage in a Boys Own adventure then this is the short film for you and is much better than some of Tom Clancy's written prose . Anyone remember the novel PATRIOT GAMES ? I rest my case

What the makers have done is take a leaf out of Paul Verhoeven's book and set it in a very recognisable setting of an urban former communist country . You might have to suspend some disbelief that former Soviet technology invested a lot of time and effort in to creating cybernetics but no one claims this type of action adventure shoot them up has to be one hundred per cent realistic

I'm not a massive fan of either James Bond or CALL OF DUTY type shooting games but this is a very impressive short action film to tie in with a release of a video game and if you're addicted to video games then this is a short film you'll certainly enjoy

I got my hopes up (as a crazy Tom Clancy fan) but you don't make the same mistake. Look at it as a very well made Video Game cut-scene or intro video, I promise you won't go home empty handed.

The production design, weapons, guns, uniforms and gear were very accurate and convincing. The automated killing machine is truly scary and whoever designed the image processing interface on the devices knew what he was doing.

Did I also mention the most awesome invisibility cloak ever!?

Story? Let's not ruin the fun... The same super worn-out Russia vs. US tale with some bad guys trying to get their hands on Russian nukes. If you read Tom Clancy books, he can tell an amazing story from the same genre over and over. But "Ghost Recon" is only 'designed' by Clancy, not actually written by him.

I really hope with this crew, comes a better sequel: FUTURE SOLDIER

Semper Fi!

I really enjoyed this. I don't play video games, even those first person shooters as I believe they are called. I'd rather spend my time at my gun club shooting my wide collection of 50+ rifles and handguns. But enough of my digression. Though I have no plans to ever waste my time playing video games and will leave that to our sedentary youth, I would absolutely love to see this short film come to the small screen as a series or to the big screen as a sequel-ized series of films. It is definitely a commercially feasible production with great acting, fantastic action, and exception special effects. So, if any of the producers are reading this, please take a hint from this over 45 reviewer...make it into a series and you'll have big ratings, plus you'll ongoing advertising for your video game.

Great plot to the movie good from the start of the movie till the end (23 min)... You guys have to finish the story line out.. MUST !!!!!!! Don't let your fans down. I was sitting on the edge of my seat the whole movie.. All the weapons was on point. The rockets on the back of the soldier, the walking drone and all the 50 cal kill shots was crazy(good)... Keep it going put it on the big screen... Keep the same actors in the movie also it's a good thing to keep the same actors in the movie.. And remember to keep the flags off the Ghost.. Cause thats one of the reasons they are ghost cause nobody knows who they are and what region they are from key word GHOST...
