User Reviews

Budget or lack of it but still enjoyed it

REVIEW - ALIEN OUTBREAK

As we all know films do cost a lot of money to make and films made must try their best to make a profit, Hollywood has the monopoly on this and uses their money to advertise films which are made there, whilst the British film industry has less money but even Hollywood would argue that sometimes British movies can be better.

This film is a prime example, it could have been so much more, don't get me wrong the story is very good with a twist at the end which you don't see coming, but if this had more money thrown at it this could have been one of the biggest British films this year as we have seen with 1917.

Acting terrible, story good with a twist, special effects are passable but isn't as paced as some films and unfortunately the lack of budget is evident, but saying all this I still enjoyed this British film about a part of Britain being invaded by aliens (or is it?).
