Arctic Armageddon

Worst movie I've seen in a long time. The use Cheap effects and no excitement at all ( very low budget movie). The helicopter scenes were so fake that they looked like they were made with model helicopters. Icebergs looked like cardboard or ice cubes from the freezer and protective suits looked like covid protection suits From 5 minutes into the movie I wondered if I should turn it off, but I kept watching to see how bad it could get and I was not disappointed. This was bad from the first minute. Must have been cheap to produce. No and no. Don't waste your time watching it. If you don't want to watch it to find out how bad it is.

I almost gave this a 3 star, even hoped for a 4, but that was just the first five minutes of the movie. After that it was clear that everyone associated with this movie is clueless in their role. I only gave a 2 because a very few actors and the camera work was worthy.

Where to start?

The script is AWFUL. Not only the words, but the staging (the director takes responsibility for some of this also), the events and responses, everything. And the actors, could you be more stiff? Admittedly I would have had a hard time delivering those lines knowing how awful the script was.

Throughout the movie the viewer constantly loses attention, wondering why they do/say what they did, events/actions that don't make sense, places that don't look real, often don't even look like they fit.

And whomever was responsible for stages (writer, director, and production team) find other jobs. One example, and my biggest gripe (of many)... have you never seen a submarine movie?

A little advice, look up the term "suspension of disbelief". Its key to the art.

First, there's no action. It's all talk. And it's all "scientific" blah blah blah that bores you.

Then, you have what could be considered a confidential and impactful conversation in front of all crew members.

The special effects are so bad and every frame feels that they are in a set or stage. It's just awful.

Even at the most "action" moments, there's so much talk. OMG.

I wonder if the actors make these films because they need money or if they are doing someone a favor because I'd be embarrassed to be in a film like this one.

Save yourself time and don't watch this movie. It is honestly not worth watching.

I only gave this movie a third star because the opening scene was intriguing and promised an interesting story. Unfortunately, the promise was never fulfilled. I don't know who deserves the most blame (director, script writer, actors, or editors or a combination of all of them) but the plot was beyond ridiculous. Almost all the actors appeared to be reading their lines, not living them. There were so many holes in the sequence of events that you could drive a Mack Truck through them. The special effects were repetitive to the point of boredom. The same goes for the dialogue. I do have to say that I enjoyed several laughs, although I'm sure it isn't what the creators of the film were aiming for.

The actors are awful, the scenario is awful, the special effects are awful, everything is awful, to the point that they almost match the worst film ever filmed.

However, I enjoyed it. A lot. I laughed at the indigent play of the actors, of the green screen effects, at the scenario which merits an igNobel Prize in Physics, everything is so low-cost that Ryan Air becomes Air France face to this inept film.

However, I enjoyed the hairstyle of the actress playing Dr Wood, I will ask my wife to copy that haircut.

Finally, I would like to thank the director who perpetrated this film. I spent an enjoyable moment by laughing in front of my TV.
