Dune Drifter

A budget take on sci-fi, and it shows. The various components of ships, weapons and suits are very recognizable and does not look like advanced technology. But ok, maybe that's what they were going for. The story is paper thin, there are some suspenseful moments that work well, and the little acting involved isn't horrible from the main character. The CGI is cheap, and I keep thinking things are too repetitive, lumpy and cumbersome. A lot of it is probably due to what we are used to seeing in more expensive sci-fi. I read a review where someone said it could have been a short movie, and it would have covered everything they needed. I second that opinion. A 25 minute feature wouldn't be out of place.

The practical cockpits and very good vfx models were apperacted and retro as was the location shooting but it weapon effects and the exploding ships looked cheap and while the story carried it self well the universe could have used some padding out .

Come on first this movie does not deserve a 1 its not that bad of course clear up the fake reviews with the 8-9-10 too because it certainly does not deserve such a high rating.

The effects are quit good if you compare this to the awful asylum movies. For the budget they did a great job with that. Looking at the FX the costumes and all they where able to do this with 100k even the spaceship battle at the start of the movie are well done.

Its a sci fi very low budget movie. I am giving it a 5 for the effort also the acting was not that bad compared to today standards of beautiful people with no brain.

For people confusing this with Dune Anything, if they would just read the description of the movie they would figure out it has nothing to do with the HerbertVerse. There are no Sand worms, No mighty Houses, no Bene Gesserit, and no Muad' Dib, and No, the spice does not flow.

This is a raw movie. A simply made movie. Too realistic for most people. A movie for hardcore sci-fi fans who will stick it out through all the unpleasant screaming in the beginning, the somewhat bland darkness of space, and the simplistic props and wardrobe.

But alas, no one wants to use their imagination anymore, so when they see simple costumes they immediately crap all over other peoples hard work.

You don't like what this director did, that's fine. How about you make a movie so we can all see how well you would do...

This wasn't a great film, great story, or great acting. The movie IS long and tedious. But the last 10 minutes make it worthwhile as things come together and some questions are answered.

Will I ever watch this again? No. I am content I saw it once, though.

It's definitely not going to win oscars but for a low budget flick it actually wasn't bad. Pacing was overall fine, acting was sub par and it wrapped up very fast but that's to be expected in B flicks. Worth a one time watch for those not afraid of B movies.
