Storyline

At the end of the Ice Age, The Machine came from outer space with the purpose to change men into mutants. However, a hero defeated the device and a great seal was laid over The Machine. In 2707, the depleted world is ruled by four Corporations: Mishima, Bauhaus, Capitol and Imperial that are in a constant state of war. During a battle between Capitol and Bauhaus, the great seal is broken and The Machine works again transforming soldiers and civilians into hordes of mutants. A small part of the population escapes to Mars, leaving millions of people behind. The man of faith and leader of an ancient brotherhood, Brother Samuel, is a believer in God and the Chronicles, a bible about the mutants from ancient times. With the city besieged by the mutants, he visits the Corporations' leader Constantine, asking for an aircraft and twenty men for a suicide mission to destroy The Machine, planting a bomb and a detonator following the knowledge of the Chronicles.

This is why Hollywood exist
21 November 2009 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

I liked this movie the lead character is Indiana Jones, Bruce Willis that guy from fire fly and 007 combined. I really liked the characters in this movie there where quite a few that you really begin to care about.I thought this movie was really deep maybe because I'm a soldier myself and have witnessed much self sacrifice on the battlefield. The movie takes place far into the future but the initial combat scenes look more like ww1 trench war fare, the classic looking weapons seemed to have some quite modern capabilities at any rate i found this style to be intriguing and fit the films dark and desperate tone perfectly. Once you get passed the harsh language the blood and gore you really begin to think what would you do in this situation. Mutant Chronicles is a very real and touching film, its more closely related to Titanic Deep impact or even Jurassic park more so then resident evil or 28 days later. This film dives head first into issues of faith courage and morality if you could watch shindlers list nightmare on elm street starship troopers and band of brothers give Mutant Chronicles a go.
