Orbs: They Are Among Us

Seriously, this is one of the best science-fiction indie films I've ever seen. Exceptionally well-shot, well-acted, and well-executed. Very psychological, and clearly not for everyone, but perfect for those that enjoy these types of films.

More than anything, it reminds me of the original Twilight Zone episodes (the 1960s). Though similar to the lack of sophistication of most TV episodes in the 60s, this is much more obscure in it's plot/story-line. Unless you've been given an explanation from the creators of this film, the story line is not obvious and simply seems to not make a lot of sense. Maybe if one watches it a number of times, it might eventually make some sense. But it's lack of action and spectacle would make multiple viewings abject drudgery. The only thing I can give it, is that I've seen far worse acting.

This is a ridiculous, sometimes annoying movie. I am almost embarrassed to admit that I liked it. I don't really know why, so I can't tell you any spoilers or anything else. It is somewhat reminiscent of the old Twilight Zone. I'll simply have to bear my shame. If you watch it, don't blame me.

The movie was obviously done with a small budget, but they managed to pull off a bit of sci-fi by keeping the sets small. The CGI is minimal, but it works effectively given the plot.

All in all, it got very repetitive with the fights, smoking and drinking. They weren't even funny, just angry.

The ending was kind of predictable and nothing new for this type of movie. I admit that I had it figured out pretty early on, but I kept watching, hoping against hope that I was wrong.

Obligatory section to make the ridiculous minimum character limit now imposed by the IMDB on reviews: Here goes - I wouldn't bother watching it unless you're new to sci-fi, in which case you could find better examples of this particular sub-genre.
