In 2525, as mankind has begun to colonise space, a group of cadets are training to fight against human insurrectionists. One of these cadets, Thomas Lasky, has doubts about his abilities as a soldier and his convictions for this war. Whilst he struggles with himself, the planet is invaded by an unknown alien race. Reeling under the assault, Lasky and his squad mates are rescued by John-117, one of the UNSC's legendary SPARTAN-II super-soldiers. John must inspire Lasky to fulfill his potential as a soldier and a leader to fight against an enemy deadlier than any that humanity has faced before. Written by Marty Goodman
When I first saw this title on Netflix I passed on it because I figured it would be a hokey B-movie passing itself off as being tied to the game. I WAS WRONG! I would put this up with the Resident Evil series of movies in terms of game/movie cross overs. The acting was good, no expense was spared for F/X, and it left me wanting to watch a sequel. That is rare for me as I generally dismiss sequels as just an effort by the studio to squeeze every last penny out of a movie. I won't give away the ending, but I will say I was floored by it. Being a Halo movie you expect the battle, but how they filmed it, and what the writers and director reveal to the audience was amazing. I definitely have a new appreciation for the game.
