Invasie

The script feels like it was written for 4 year olds. Lots of exposition, lots of coincidences that make the plot move forward. Characters just disappearing from the movie so another actor can do his part. Apparently NATO is not a thing anymore in this movie. Aruba only has a total of 10 marines on the islands military base. A marine that just got out of basic knows how to freefall parachute with full kit on. All these things make it a bad movie. However it is also hilariously bad, because of all these aspects. Some of the lines that are delivered are unintentionally funny. The characters are also just caricatures of military personnel what makes it funny. People just finding each other in a vast jungle without a clear reason is also really funny for some reason. All and all I would not recommend this to go and see this in theaters, but watching this at home with some buddies it could be really funny, especially if you know anything about the military.

Well, I did make the wish "This Movie should be available Internationally" before. Anyway, when checkout on my phone (Trailer on YouTube) and know it will available in USA (maybe on other countries in the future or together), I was excited 😆😆. Maybe this review isn't related but I only say about the excitement after waiting nearly 1 year since premiered in NLD

Last year, when I visited Official Instagram "Royal Netherlands Navy or Koninklijke Marine, and see this movie was premiered on cinema, I was like expecting it will gonna available internationally, I thought that movie isn't gonna be available internationally (at least started in US first).

Maybe you guys may give low ratings, but I just give it 10, not because what. I just want to appreciate the effort about this movie creations. Also, I'm just a person who like movie like this one even some I currently still watch offline.

So.. apparently the director also was a part of 'Mocro Maffia' and 'The Golden Hour'.

It does not show.

The movie is illogical (I can see past factual inaccuracies or mildly unbelievable scenarios because after all this is fiction) to a point that I took my phone out halfway to enjoy myself another way.

Acting is okayish, not good, not cringeworthy bad.

SFX is okayish, not good, not bad.

The story is.. OK.

If you have absolutely nothing else to do and you get to watch this movie for free.. go in with low expectations and you might get some entertainment value out of it.

Dont expect it to be near the level of 'Mocro Maffia' and/or 'The Golden Hour' though.

I enjoyed the recent works from Bobby Boermans, like High Flyers, Mocro Maffia and especially the Golden Hour. Seeing the trailer I was really hyped for his next project, but I was honestly disappointed. It lacked a decent story. 'First female marine' line that continued through the movie was odd. There isn't a female marine so it would be a true achievement, but keep emphasizing it turned it into a running joke or a cheap line. The gunfights were subpar as well. You can find more interesting fights in youtube videos with a signifcantly lower budget. VFX was really good though, props to PlanetX. Gijs Blom has shown his acting chops in The Forgotten Battle, but his character in Invasie was plain and boring. This movie, like many other Dutch movies, lacks mostly in writing and partially in direction. Even with great sound, great visuals and a decent budget, it can't compensate for a lack of story.

The movie is oke and fine if you have nothing to do. A lot of inaccuracies with makes a Marvel movie more realistic than this one. It starts fine, but it takes quite some time to gain some context on what is happying and initial introduction of characters is a waste of time as they are completely irrelevant to the story. The focus is completely removed from those characters and the context created.

And then the end.. the movie stops suddenly without a solid or plausible end making the 1,5 hours a waste of your life.

Acting is fine, but nothing special.

I have no idea how this is in line, in respect to quality, with Mocro Maffia.
