This movie is vastly inferior to the original Moontrap. The story is a mish-mash of elements from better movies like Prometheus, and the typical we don't want the populous to know of this, it will ruin society. The special effects are sub par and compare to the worse the SyFy channel dishes out. Moontrap was not a A budget movie but is made good use of the stars and budget. This one had only 2 robots and neither looked like the Kaalium. One plus is the character development, you cared about what was going on with them. The ending was unsatisfying. Overall a movie that needed to look at the original for better inspiration and better writers and effects.
I never leave reviews but felt a duty to the rest of humanity to do so here. This is literally the worst movie I've ever seen. I love sci-fi. I will watch bad sci-fi just because its all that's available. I went in with low expectations and was still surprised at how bad a movie could be. Could not make it more than half way before I gave up.
I think my kids have turned in better video projects than this for school. I find it hard to believe there was a professional anywhere near this mess.
stay away - even if you can see it for free, you would have more fun reading the tax code.

I never leave reviews, but I felt it necessary to warn people about this film.
The premise was great! It is the stuff I love to see in films, but the execution was just downright terrible. The acting, the props, the writing... it was all half-assed and not thought out in the least. It's almost as if they didn't even try! I've seen better movies with beter effects and acting come out of high school A/V clubs. Seriously, it is that bad. Don't waste your time.

It's been many years since I have seen a film of such low quality. Both Acting and special effects could have been created at a kindergarten by a bunch of 6 year old's but that would be an insult to your average 6 year old. I somehow have the impression that the budget was a little bit tight also.
I feel sorry for the acting cast because if they get known for only this film then I feel that their career would go straight down the toilet. Shame cause some of them have potential.

Somewhere in this plodding, underdeveloped mish-mash of a movie there is a story worth doing. Sadly, it wasn't done correctly here. You will find yourself wondering why they didn't do "X" or "Y" all the way through it. That is, if you can stay with it long enough. This movie could have been done in half the length of time it took, and the result would have been far superior. Vast chunks of time are wasted on long, lingering shots of ...... nothing important. Or s-l-o-o-o-w pan shots that do nothing to advance the story. The SFX are mediocre, at best. The dialog goes from snappy to dull in the blink of an eye. With a few more bucks in the budget, and a director and cinematographer who actually cared, this could have been a half decent B flick.
Save your precious dollars, and find another flick to watch.
