Ghost Planet

Ghost Planet is a bonkers, out of this world (no pun intended) movie. It's fun.

With limited resources Philip J. Cook and his team have made a fun, popcorn movie.

There's a blade runner-esq city car chase, bubblegum, cool heads-up-displays and grande visual effects.

The film explores space exploration, androids, future cities and lost civilisations.

For a low budget independent movie, the film aims really high with the visual effects. I think the matching of the lighting with the background green screen could have been better to make the world more convincing but that said its a really amazing effort.

The performances of note include actors, Ulysses E. Campbell and Georgia Anastasia

Just finished watching this movie on Amazon Prime and enjoyed it. The special effects are pretty good even though I saw a car stereo (had bass /treble settings) turned at 90 degrees to make a door entry device. The three main characters are engaging and the plot is OK. It is always funny that the English play the bad guys, the Americans always like doing this for some reason. Most of the free movies provided by Amazon prime aren't that good so it was a nice surprise to be able to watch a fairly good sci-fi movie. There were a couple of good ideas about what the future would be like. The movie was 1 and half hours long which seemed to pass pretty quickly so I must have enjoyed it.

I thought this would be a bit like an old school space film like the Blake's 7 TV series but the story of 3 siblings on a space scavenger hunt to get the big payoff type adventure works well with a neat twist in the ending. The cgi is impressive for an indie film and I totally loved the use of miniature models and pyro for some scenes. The sets and costumes are impressive when you consider how many were required in addition to the cgi backdrops which must have be a huge task! The film also has a certain Luc Besson 5th Element style vibe in the music and background city scenes which is nice (I'm sure I saw a certain Bruce Willis taxi in there too!!). Overall a very watchable film even for a non sci fi fan.

'Ghost Planet' is an indie sci-fi film that takes you through space on a journey that you are not entirely sure where it is headed at first. The dialogue and interactions between the characters as they decide the pros and cons of this technology keeps the story engaging. It makes you think about the cost of pursuing something unknown and new and whether or not it is worth it with everything on the line. Aside from the low budget with the effects and some source-y lighting along with everything in the focal plane being in focus on certain shots, the story is pretty compelling and if you like sci-fi, this might be up your alley.

Ghost Planet is an extremely ambitious and visually stunning independent Sci-Fi film. The movie follows a small group of astronauts as they travel to an unknown planet. There were several breathtaking sequences in this film that especially impressed me, such as a really thrilling flying car chase scene. The whole movie is done on a really epic scale. It is obvious that quite a lot of work went into the film to make it look as good as it did. The special effects were really well done. I thought the musical score was also very effective. The filmmakers should be proud of this movie. It is an impressive accomplishment.
