    • Trivia
      Most of the film was shot on location in Iceland. The actors had to pretend they were in a very hot environment of over 100 degrees Fahrenheit despite the fact that they were actually filming in sub-zero temperatures. The weather was so taxing that cast members passing out was an everyday occurrence, and the cast and crew took friendly bets on who would pass out first (the bets were made to keep morale high).

    Review from someone who did not play the games
    The worst thing about the pilot is that it is not that sci-fi. It starts promising, detailing the threat and "the mission", it shows the characters, then they all go to an isolated place where technology works against them. So basically, an entire setup for a medieval like quest, only on an alien world.

    Other than that, the plot is predictable, but not terrible, the acting is good and it kept me watching it, even if I knew how it would end from the first half of the movie.

    As I have not played the game, I have no quarrels with that aspect of the movie, however it did seem that it had nothing to do with how a specialized fighting force would behave in the 26th century. Also, it didn't really say anything about the Halo universe. As a complete noob, I had no idea who MasterChef (he he!) was and what a Halo was.

    Bottom line: forgettable, but not that terrible. It did seem really low budget, though, and I have to ask myself what is the purpose of a low budget sci-fi series pilot which brings nothing in terms of story or characters? It only prepares an even less worked on series, right?

    Update: didn't realize that "the pilot" was the whole first season. Heh!
