Bigfoot: The Conspiracy

I really hated this film, I found it funny how poor it was but apart from that it didn't have anything redeeming. The protagonist was dull, not particularly likable owing to the fact he had zero character and his lack of chemistry with his wife was daunting.

My biggest critique was the jumbled plot, extreme lack of Bigfoot scenes, the lack of scares and terrible characters. For example, the three main agents meet up with an analytical agent, offer her no information, she offers them none and then they all leave. Why did this meeting happen at a "secret location" (where they all wear black suits and glasses and stick out like sore thumbs) I don't know, but it did. Also, why did the agents at the end break into Dante's parents in law's house and then suddenly do a 180 at the end and shoot at the rogue agent, it was all ridiculous. The director takes himself far too seriously for the tripe he keeps putting out, and the 10 star reviews on IMDB all seem to be from family and friends most likely.

2/10: Apart from some decent natural cinematography there is not much to look forward to here.

Oh man, this is a rough one. If you're wondering about the positive reviews here you'd be right to suspect they're authored by friends and family of cast and crew. There's no other explanation. 10 of 10? Get real!

One of the first signs that this might be a struggle was seeing that the director, Chris Simoes, was also the writer, and that he gave himself a plum acting role too. Jack of all trades, master of none. His acting chops were non-existent but they aren't even the worst here. That dishonor goes to Dave R. Watkins, who is as stiff and wooden as they come.

The writing is strictly amateur hour and the direction is no better. This is a tough slog.

Also worth a mention is the music. For whatever reason they insist on shoehorning in some extremely schlocky garage punk band's "greatest hits." I'll give them this - it fits right in with the quality of the production.

A word consistently comes to mind when I watch this movie: restraint. Don't get me wrong-- I really enjoy the story, I think the acting and editing are great. But I have seen enough monster flicks in which the filmmaker just can't resist overselling and gratuitously showing their creature, which usually turns out to be embarrassing and distracting. Chris is a meticulous and thoughtful filmmaker who used the creature as a setpiece for a story that goes far beyond a simple humans vs monster saga. I LOVE the message about respecting nature, and humans remembering their place in it. I thought Dante was a believable, humble character, and it was refreshing to have a leading man with a heavy past, who wasn't the trendy miserable anti-hero. And-- when you DO see the monster-- he's pretty rad. 😊 Highly recommend.

Wow!! I'm left with thinking is there really a Bigfoot?!? So cleverly written! This movie kept me engaged... Great movie to add to your watch list! The director and team did an amazing job! A must see!!

If you are into this subject...you can tell the creators have some knowledge, or did their research. I am not going to critique the acting etc., like others...but rather I am mainly rating this because I enjoyed it ... and was a kind of cool storyline. I basically just started it and it held my attention throughout. I have watched quite a few videos etc., on the subject of Sasquatch, because I find it fascinating...and this was one of the ones I actually enjoyed. Worth the watch if you are into this kind of thing...maybe not so much if you are just looking for another thriller to watch...though you may still enjoy it.
