Agent

If you want a decent sci-fi movie with aliens, this isn't it. If you want decent acting and writing, again, not it.

This is a classic example of what I call lazy writing, where the author writes something highly improbable/unlikely to advance the story. Then on top of that the characters did not behave realistically - not responding anything like an actual person would in similar circumstances. This is all made worse by continuity errors and a general lack of research on certain things (firearms for one).

The acting is barely adequate overall, but some of the characters come across as either wooden or strained when challenged to show emotion. The main female's "meltdown" seemed a bit hamfisted.

The entire premise of the movie wasn't bad, but the idea that humanity needed "help" to build complex structures in the way described was overly contrived. It was if they were saying that ancient humans were too dumb to even talk with each other let alone cooperate with each other.

Overall, not a great movie, but I'll give it 3 out of 10 - you CAN watch it, but I'd suggest doing it with friends and then making fun of the mistakes and acting. You'll enjoy it much better that way.

The writing is horrendous. Acting is terrible, but I ignored that since these seem to be a bunch of young people trying. OK fine, but maybe keep your options open. Maybe it's the horrible writing that makes it impossible to act.

Characters are basic preppy blank faces, nothing interesting about them in my opinion. Backstory on interpersonal relationships between the characters supposed to make it more interesting and give the characters personality? Didn't do it for me here.

Story is boring, plot didn't go anywhere until it suddenly decided to move and even then it was just a complete let down. Not stimulating or very creative. By the way the writing is absolutely terrible. It's on the cusp of being so bad it's good, but it's not so it's just terrible. I cannot believe there are people rating this up on here but okay different tastes I guess.

The writing and acting are so so so so terrible. It's so forced and there isn't even anything to force which is the grand irony of it all.

This is not eve a movie.... it's some tragi-comedy... worst ever. I think the crew and the actors rated it above 2.. LOL Don't loose time on this.... Do not even bother to play 5 minutes of this, you will suffer very bad, believe me!!!! The actors are under any level the operator is using some smartphone with good camera for this i guess.. absolutely bad bad bad performance, play, story line, everything is terrible!!!

My friends and I were surfing around and decided to rent this film because we live in Nevada, and we go to the desert to shoot guns all the time...haha. We got a kick out of the premise...I recognized all the weapons.

We were all pleasantly surprised, the film takes a turn and it's constant running, danger, and...shooting.

Enjoyed it an apparently there's more coming

great to see the clips form social media come to fruition in the film. awesome camera-work, acting and story. did a great job of tackling a big idea and keeping it intimate within a small group of characters rather than the story being a global, world ending, city destroying cliché that is much too saturated. this lends itself to keeping the info conspiratorial and privy. I believe this angle is why the characters are relatable. IN addition, a good use of the power punch. you see too often a super strong character punching an opponent across the room and it just looks like they are on wires. Agent accomplished this technique while making it not overdone and much more believable. cheers to the cast and crew, cant wait for the follow up!!
