Did you people see the same film I saw?
I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
I like this movie. It can be viewed by kids and adults alike, easy on the eye with the action, the effects are decent and the performances are good too. Maybe there are some scenes that could look illogical but I'd still prefer movies like these that can be viewed by audience of any age and a simple plot without too many twists.But what confused or amused me is how a person infested with the alien virus or chip acts like a zombie! And the zombie trait is selective too :pAnyway it is a timepass movie especially for kids. Among the actors, I especially liked Alyssa Diaz as Elena who searches for her abducted father and Barry Corbin as Grandpa Max.I'm a fan of alien movies. Alien Swarm is not for those that expect great action, effects or story but it is easy on the eye(for the general audience) and brain(uncomplicated plot unlike the Arrival that released a month ago).Verdict: Not very impressive but it's still likable and clean entertainment.
Let me start by saying 1st off that the actors in this movie are way too old for their roles. They're supposed to be between the ages of 15 and 17 when they look like they're in their early to mid 20's. The acting isn't too bad. It's not great or even good, but it's okay.When it comes to it being related to the show, it's too different. It's not Dragon Ball Evolution bad, but it's pretty bad. A character is introduced in this movie that was never in the show at all that's supposed to be Ben's "long-lost girlfriend" or something. The way the villain is defeated is...disturbing. It would've been much better if the villain was defeated almost..any other way. Okay, it's not that bad, but it's still pretty disturbing.The movie's 2 main characters give you that vibe that Dragon Ball Evolution gave you with Goku or should I say "Goku" and his girlfriend, which will have you thinking "Just make out already!"It introduces a new alien solely for ratings, which is unnecessary, though not completely bad. The CGI is sub-par even for the time, though it's actually really good for a TV movie on a kids' network.
I sat and watched this film for (ahem) the kids and i loved it, being a secret Ben 10 fan (shhh, don't tell my sons) it delivered on so many levels. I loved the portrayal of all the characters especially Kevin Levin, brilliant. The story flowed well, and was consistently interesting. However, i felt the character of Elena a little, annoying, and the fact that all was forgiven with her father...not great, after all if he hadn't have been tampering with the chips...but hey its a kid film, and needs to be positive. They are my only complaints regarding the film.I loved the car chase scene with Kevin and Gwen in the dodge with the chips following them, great scene. The film is filled with technology, cars, and action. What more can you ask for? Its funny, and well written with witty one liners. So if you want an easy to watch film, that is easy going, and exciting, give Alien Swarm a go, it wont disappoint
I thought that this movie was great, anyone who's a fan of Ben Ten Alien Force would totally enjoy this movie. From the acting to the special effects this movie really delivers. The casting director and the hair/make-up/costume crew did a great job making everyone look like the actual cartoon characters (although, Grandpa Max didn't really fit, and Gwen's top didn't fit the actress well).The only REAL issue I have with this movie was that fact that it was so predictable and that the writers didn't do anything to create any sort of twist (but then again what do you expect it's a TV movie). I totally think that this series would rock as a feature film.
