Seven Lost

Must watch with the right attitude. This is a leader in the unintentionally funny category. Move over 'The Room' and 'Plan 9 from Outer Space'. Crack open a bottle, open a bag of chips and MST3K this bomb.

It's obvious that no one involved in this film ever served in the military, ever fired a gun, ever read a book about war or ever saw a war movie. Or, maybe, any movie.

We expected a good war flick given all the 10 star rating bombs in here (the director has a lot of friends) and it wouldn't have been so bad if we hadn't paid for it. But down to 1-star for the blatant dishonesty.

Still, if you need a laugh a minute, check this one out.

This independent movie based on World War II is one of the most interesting and intelligent movies I've seen this year. There are many movies that chronicle the journey of a soldier in a war, but this particular film goes much further than any other. The writing is incredibly brilliant and constantly makes you feel sympathy for each of the characters, who are surprisingly interesting. The performances are wonderful, especially Michael Placencia who plays the main Sargeant character.

The direction of the "Seven Lost" makes you feel as if you are with them, allowing you to be part of the journey in the entirety of the film. Few filmmakers can direct a war movie as good as this one.

From a technical perspective, "Seven Lost" is an absolute achievement in cinema. It is a visually beautiful film with stunning cinematography. The sound effects and mixing are possibly the best I've ever heard in a movie! The shots are loud, scary and realistic.

Considering this is an indie movie, I was absolutely blown away by the use of CGI as it looks incredibly real. The wardrobe and makeup department should also be celebrated as they did an amazing job.

I love when filmmakers have insight when making a war movie. You can see the amount of research that went into portraying the soldiers, their struggles, and their emotions. It seems that each of the characters has a purpose and a life behind the war, which makes you want to see more of them.

Usually, if a WWII movie is boring, it takes my attention away completely, but this movie had me hooked from start to finish, because it's not only historically accurate, it's also incredibly entertaining. It's hard to describe this movie in words, but I urge you to watch it right away, you won't regret it.

This is a movie with a very low budget, made more like an outing for a group of amateur reenactment enthusiasts than a cast of real actors. The movie is just not worth it, and the low level is evident from minute zero. The plot is non-existent, the setting inaccurate, and the uniforms and weapons completely wrong. The worst part is seeing that there are a few positive comments and 10-star ratings, which can only be due to bad faith or having confused it with another movie; perhaps there is one with the same title that truly deserves these comments, but this one definitely does not.

Of course, it's always appreciated the effort involved in carrying out a film project, with its enormous complexity, especially without a budget, but this cannot be reason enough to end up making such a poor-quality movie. There are numerous productions that have shown that with a low budget, interesting things can be done. When money is scarce, you have to figure out how to not mess up the basics, and in this movie, they really haven't bothered with this aspect at all. A movie with historical setting requires expert consultants in different areas, and in war movies, like those set in WWII, knowledge of uniforms is fundamental, as everything is well-documented and nothing can be left to improvisation.

I saw the reviews of 8.7 out of 10 and thought I was in for treat. 3 minutes in the bad cgi, lack of a technical advisor, soldier's with the wrong kit and weapons for the time frame had me turn it off and find something. Anything else to watch.

Save yourself from this movie unless someone has a gun to your head stay away. To the film makers it doesn't seem like it wouldn't have taken much to make something better out of the resources you had but here we are. As a historian and rivet counter you failed when you actually had promise. There is a rich genre of war films that got it right. Maybe you shod have screened some before you made this film.

A good Indie Film that delivers on a lot of close up war fair and plenty of action. I enjoyed the story it takes you on, along with the location, wardrobe, props, sets and the TANK!! It's always great to see Indie films and the time/passion it takes to bring a film to life with small budgets. It is no easy task but this cast/crew pulled it off and told a story that put the viewers right in the action and drama. The best part for me is the effort to go as real as possible and not hold back on how ruthless war can be and how you can discard a life so effortlessly. Somthing people of war no nothing about this film was able to show.

Congratulations to the cast/crew for bringing the story to life.
