The Osiris Child

Actually better than most big budget sci-fi movies. Action is fast paced and succinct dialogue develops drama nicely Character development is enough to care about the protagonists. Cinematography is sharp and clean and very decent effects. The movie is mostly original and well carried out. If you want a good date movie or a good time, watch it. Plus, it's good to see that hunk ,Kellan Lutz, working again. The only complaint is it would have been better had it been made into a Netflix series. The ending leaves an opening for a Sequel but I doubt it It lwould have been great to put more time and story into the idea.

An interesting film from start to finish, far more polished a presentation than the budget would suggest. It's a mixture of previous film styles like Star Wars, Alien and Mad Max but none the worse for that with a good well paced story line.

No one will be up for an Oscar but the standard of acting was really good with well filled out characters that you actually grew to care about or dislike!.Throw in some good special effects and photography together with a quality sound track and you've got a good film to watch. The only drawback for me was the last part of the film where it seemed an hours worth of story had been condensed into 30 minutes. It may be the film was cut to fit a 90 minute time span rather than 100 to 120 minutes but it seemed very choppy at the end.

Any one interested in Sci Fi should find this an excellent afternoons entertainment.

Nowadays, people ought to check a IMDb score before watching a movie. But naturally there's lots of points of view there. So, this time I'll try to keep it short. This is a decent modern SF production. No one should be disappointed. Obviously, the production team seem to kept it up within the given budget and gave us a timely well paced, nicely trimmed script and eye-lubricated product for every SF lover out there. Of course, one shouldn't expect some "eye soul candy" nor genre-breaking original ideas (as genre in general, not only within movies, but also games or literature). But, as I noticed above about briefness, we all should be satisfied within the given parameters. A recommendation.

Though it could have a better script, the plot is quite interesting and the characters are likeable. The CGI and special effects are both average. Overall a good movie to ease your mind off the unending Marvel Superheroes Marathon that is currently flooding Hollywood.

Science Fiction Volume One: The Osiris Child is a little Aussie science fiction gem.

This is not a big budget film but it makes the best possible use of the funding it does have. For its money it offers up excellent performances from the predominantly Australian cast, above average special effects and an interesting story that takes a bookish approach, with the film broken down into chapters. Each chapter has its own overriding theme that builds into a bigger story of interplanetary imperialism, greed, political intrigue and friendship.

Perhaps the only downside to this tale being the creature effects, which seemed a bit "muppety" at times and were a long way from being genuinely scary.

That said, this film remains a polished affair in most respects and puts the often lazy efforts of big budget counterparts to shame. Eight out of ten from me.
