Dark Cycle

I am half way through this Badly written horrendously acted load of Garbage but am persevering just so I can give a hundred percent honest review!

I have not heard of the writer whom also directed this movie and I think maybe it is due to either his newness to both or that he is just a dreadful writer as the story is quite pathetic and is only bested by the truly awful acting that suggests the cast is also are fresh to acting . If this was a college students first script and he got his college mates to act in it you maybe give him some leeway ! Describing this tipsy turvy story as Sci Fi is laughable just because it supposedly has aliens featured in the nonsensical offering!

My advice skip this movie unless you want to cringe for 80 mins The writer needs to keep going to classes as do the actors neither are at a level for an audience yet! My rating 1 star for effort on a D.

I'm confused. This film has lots of 10/10 ratings, which is why I rented it. Cleary low budget but I don't hold that against it. However, it is at best exceedingly average. One review suggests amazing soundtrack. To me the sound is poor and music almost nonexistent. Competent acting and a slightly intriguing story but I didn't find any of it funny. I wonder if all the reviewers worked on the film... Very disappointing. I think there is some error in the IMDb system that allowed this film to score so highly without any checks. Ninety minutes of my life that I will never get back. The only reason we finished watching was so I could write an honest review.

I feel like I was tricked into watching this film with it's high rating. The synopsis looked promising too. When I saw the obvious poor production value from the start, I was like well maybe it does something clever with the story... I was wrong. Save yourself. It's not even the fun kind of bad. It's just bad.

The story was an incoherent hot mess, and it also just ends, with a "to be continued..." I was left feeling, what the hell did I just watch? Not much actually happens, that isn't covered by the synopsis, and honestly the acting is just awful.

It uses a lot of the bad special effects too, so it just looks a hot mess.

Promising idea and could have been great. Obviously a low budget film, with inconsistent sound levels and very dodgy effects. However this, in itself, would not warrent a low rating. I enjoy watching low budget films which are so bad that they become good, but this isn't one of them.

The low rating is because the plot is incomprehensible with no clear story line. It was intriging but it ends with a 'to be continued' message so there is no pay off at the end to justify spending 90 minutes watching this film. A complete 'raised finger' to the viewer.

Finally a comment about the 10/10 reviews, as other reviews state they must be fake. Most of them repeat the same statements and have no relationship to the film I saw. Do not heed these reviews.
