    Good Movie For a low Budget Film

    I don't really write to many reviews for movies, People like what they like and the same goes for dislike. First off, The special effects were great.

    They didn't try to over do it. The script could have been a little more developed in some areas but it is for all intensive purposes, a Sci- Fie / Drama. The Acting was pretty good For the most part. The Cinematography was Good, No shaky camera crap or blurred fight scene's.

    I am not sure why but the Police and other authoritative actors weren't very good. Not convincing in anyway shape or form. I felt like someone p****d on my cornflakes while i was trying to enjoy the rest of my breakfast. A little more info about where the girl was for all those years or a few flash back scene's could have brought her character to life and actually made me care more about her. She wasn't a bad actor she just wasn't really given much to work with to round out her character. Still ' it was WAY better than some of the cheap C-B flick crap that the Sci-Fie channel was trying to cram down our throats a few years back. It is better than some of these movies that have been coming out lately.

    I know it was a drama- Sc-Fie but a little more attention to detail on WHERE the dramatic crescendo's peeked would have helped. Some where overdone or a little premature at times. Still all in all it kept me interested and for all the Doomsday preppies? Used government cement trucks should go up in price at the local auction.

    A somewhat weak drama with sci-fi elements

    Terminus is not a bad movie. It just suffers from an illness that is common for many other low budget productions - it doesn't engage the viewer. The movie is more drama than a sci-fi. Unfortunately, the drama element is severely clichéd and the sci-fi element is undeveloped and feels incredibly artificial. The script is atrocious which leaves an imprint on the otherwise OK acting. Character development is non-existent and leaves you wondering what drives some of the characters to do the things they do. The effects are decent but scarce and boring. A real sci-fi flick has to have some thrilling moments but this movie has none of that. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this movie, it's a waste of time 4/10.

    A Solid Mid-Range SciFi Flick

    This movie is nowhere near as bad as some reviews claim. At the bottom line you find a solid concept - the world stands at the edge of the apocalypse. A war in the Middle East threatens to boil over at any moment. But an artifact/lifeform from beyond Earth may be the answer humanity needs. Is it weapon or cure?

    I will grant you that much of the story won't surprise you, but it's pretty well done in that comfortable storytelling zone. The acting is fair to good (sadly, the main character is the least gifted actor's role). This is pure average-guy-fighting-the-evil-government stuff. There are some dumb moments (an operation on a living person that uses a cast saw? Really?) but there's enough here to carry you to the end.

    Great science fiction? No. Worth your time? Absolutely.

    Worth a watch for SciFi Buffs

    While you definitely won't rush out and buy the bluray version and will probably not want to watch it again, this B+ movie is certainly a worthwhile one time watch for fans of hard SciFi.

    When I say SciFi I dont mean the Independence Day, MIB, Star Wars type Science Fantasy movies but the more cerebral, drama driven flicks that rely more on the slow paced buildup against set against a scifi background. If you're looking for space battles, explosions and English speaking aliens you will probably be better off watching a screen saver instead.

    Overall a solid.

    Building tension ...

    Terminus is a movie about loss and relationships. It takes place in a not too distant future where a huge war/intervention in the East is draining American lives and the economy. This epic is well documented and reflected throughout the movie by numerous background television reports and moving scenes of struggle, and is something brilliantly done. It puts a small Mid-Western town on edge, full of macho guys and recently returned veterans with terrible injuries. It's refreshing to see an approaching apocalypse movie devoting serious attention to external forces. Too often in such movies the background end of days is only attended to in the beginning or sparsely thereafter, which stifles the sense of threat and forces the viewer to watch events unfold as if such gravity was a much lesser part of unfolding drama. Having said that, Terminus is still more about characters with their own problems themselves rather than characters reacting to something bigger than themselves. There are three streams of tension here, each building momentum. This is thus almost a thriller more than a sci-fi film. It seems to have the attention to detail of a big budget production that you'd expect in regard to the actors, all of whom deliver feisty and emotional performances, and yet the sci-fi aspect is conspiratorial, somewhat rushed and far less impressive. I'm not complaining of its scale in the sense of cgi, but I thought it required more expression, each stage could have been given just a tad more impact. I have to admit that it's hard to criticise such an aspect when the entire thrust of the story depends on it. To my mind what's produced is very good, but perhaps could have been better. So often these days I get the feeling that low budget sci-fi movies have not been given enough time to really iron out all the wrinkles and really develop full potential prior to being produced. The sci-fi itself is a very usual juxtaposition, and thus the tension and heightened interest. There are numerous edge of your seat moments here, rolling all the way to an explosive climax, and in the end that's what counts.

    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Goofs
      Even though the story allegedly takes place in the United States, many references to Australia are seen in the film, throwing the story off.

      Chrysler 300C driven by the government agents is right-hand-drive. As the agent exited the left side of Chrysler, the dashboard is briefly visible to have no steering wheel on the left side.

      The green-white pictogram for emergency exit sign is visible in the hospital. The American equivalent is red EXIT.

      The doorknobs are positioned close to the shoulder height: typical feature in Australia and New Zealand but never in the United States.

      The telephone at repair garage is Australian and never been available in the US.

      David Chamberlain: And what's that?

      Zach Aronson: A future.

      David Chamberlain: A future?

      Zach Aronson: Yeah.

      David Chamberlain: I'm not the one picking fights I know I can't win.
