Atomic Eden is one of the best action movies I have seen in a while! The stunts were outstanding, story line concept excellent. Finding the doomsday device no matter what the cost. They gave there lives for the sake of humanity. If you like non stop action, this is the movie to see. Conventional fighting and Karate scenes. Fred and his co-stars did not miss a beat! If you are a Hammer fan, this is a must see!

ATOMIC EDEN is a film that delivers exactly what is expected, nothing at all. It proudly displays it's digital home-video Z-movie roots on it's sleeve and takes off running. Even though the majority of "actors" are complete unknowns, there are a few familiar faces who will most certainly make some wonder "Didnt I see this guy somewhere?..Maybe yes". Unknown German martial arts star Mike Moller could easily bury any future career with this. His fight choreography is nothing short of actually not bad and at least helps to set screenshots from ATOMIC EDEN as a wallpaper. Even though his role is just a few frames and seconds, DTV regular Lorenzo Lamas reminds us just how desperate for a paycheck he truly is. If you're anything like me, then the presence of Fred "The Hammer" Williamson top-billed should be all you need to think twice before watching it. After spending years in doing cameos, Williamson is front and center and even well into his seventies, there's no question that you will start kicking yourself halfway through the movie for starting it.
The rest of the "cast" wouldn't be able to act their way out of an elevator. Each character on the team has no talents whatsoever which is fun watching when you are drunk. When they all work together, each person actually needs to be there and are an important part for you understanding how much time you already wasted. The unknown actors look embarrassed and most likely closed their FB pages long ago - and who wouldn't. Everett Ray Aponte, Dominik Starck, Josephine Hies, Nico Sentner (who also co-wrote and directed - on his smartphone), Wolfgang Riehm (who likes to get paid), and Hazuki Kato (starring in Muppets Most Wanted) give the picture personality and confusion. The film is cheap, face-palm-slap-inducing, and a damn poor idea of wasting time.
It can sometimes be easy for producers to hype their Z-movie by fake reviews for whatever reason. The fact is, B-movies are supposed to be fun while Z grade home-video films are supposed to steal your time & money. Nico Sentner's ATOMIC EDEN steals both and in spades. Get a lobotomy and have a good time with this joke of a new entry in the Z-Action film pantheon.
****** After reading the first "review" on here, couldn't resist to put some things into perspective. This is not a b-movie, its a z-movie, ultra low budget shot on really poor digital cameras. Williamson did some good b-movies before, and this Moller guy seems to be a good martial arts artist, but this whole movie is an insult to b-movie fans. I think its possible to make better movies on the latest iPhone these days.

I was stumbling over Atomic Eden by accident. I didn't know much about it before I watched it on Amazon Video. This film turned out to be a pleasant surprise.
Don't get me wrong, this film is far away from being perfect, but if you are searching for an old school type of action B movie. You will have a lot of fun watching Atomic Eden. Watching this particular movie is like getting in a time machine and taking a trip back to 1985 or 1990 when over the top action flicks like this were the norm.

I found this movie by chance on Amazon and decided to give it a try - and wasn't disappointed.
ATOMIC EDEN delivers exactly what you think: some interesting characters exploring an abandoned industrial complex full of gasmask wearing minions, a lot of shooting and fighting and the Charme of the good old action movies from the late 80s.
Mike Moller as the fighter is a very talented young martial artist, and no surprise his role is one of the best, followed by the Hammer who is a veteran in slightly grungy and independent movies.
If you are interested in some simple but good action and a wide variety of characters with different abilities and strength, ATOMIC EDEN is what you are looking for.
I had fun with this movie and would recommend it to my friends.

This movie is of course terrible. It's like these directors make a half-assed effort on purpose. Seriously there's more thought and preparation put into a teenagers TikTok video. But rest assured there is a light at the end of the tunnel. If it wasn't for movies like these RiffTrax would have nothing to riff on. Get the RiffTrax version of the his movie... You'll thank me?
