BroadcastChic Excellent, a Must See
Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
Plustown A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.
Griff Lees Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
dien Since I like action films, sci-fi films and invasion films and I am familiar with the work of Mark Dacascos, I was curious to check out this movie.I can't say it's a total disappointment. It has it's moments and some of it actually does work. Unfortunately, what might have been a good film, got lost under a pile of amateurism, cheap sets and poor special effects.On the good side, the acting is not that bad and there are elements you wish where explored more. Plus the action is OK, even though I wish there had been more martial art fights between the main hero and some of the main baddies in stead of just ordinaries lackies.What bothered me the most was the ending which felt tacked on as if the producers were planning for a sequel. If one ever materializes, I will probably watch it.
mike-ryan455 First, the plot of "The Event" - the dying planet trying to assemble the teleportation device to beam their inhabitants to safety and the the evil faction going to kill us humans off so they have room on Earth - seemed a wee bit familiar. They stole it from here. This one came years first.It wasn't a great plot to steal, but The Event could have pulled it off with better acting and a more logical, well written script. They should have known by watching "Alien Agent" that when you don't have a script worth jack you don't have a decent show. Unfortunately, they didn't learn that critical lesson.Well, on to "Alien Agent." Yes, it is as bad as everyone says it is. Horrid writing, terrible episode, just abysmal. I have seen better from Sci Fi channel movies. It lacks even cheesy CGI special effects. The production values looked more like a bad Star Trek: TOS episode than anything else.Don't ruin an hour and a half of your life by watching this Grade D turkey.
Boloxxxi In a nutshell so that you don't have to read the rest of my crap if you don't want to: Old story. Aliens are having problems in their world and so come to ours to bug us or take over, or something. I dunno. So an alien agent is sent to stop them from their diabolical schemes.When not chairing the "Iron Chef" Mark Dacascos. does action B-movies which are, in my opinion, usually better than most B-movies but yet always seem to fall just short of their potential. This one is no exception. All the pieces are there; just needed a little bit more intelligence in the writing and better direction. Case in point: our hero steals a police car and was asked by his companion why he did it. He replied that he wanted to hear the police reports. This was so obviously a lame excuse since the cost of attracting so much attention to himself far outweighed the benefits of any police report. Besides, he could simply have used or gotten a scanner of his own (he had a hideout full of crap).More likely the director wanted a car chase and this was his best excuse to get one. In another scene a lot of people were killed for no good reason other than to steal a truck. Why would you do that and draw unwanted attention to yourself? More likely the director needed a mass murder in the movie this was his best excuse for one. I wanted to like this movie, and I did "somewhat" (I liked the early scene with the alien chick on the overpass; at that point the movie looked very promising) but there were some inconsistencies that bugged me. In the first fight scene the hero fought very well; expertly. Then there was a later fight scene where he appeared to not know how to fight at all. If the director wanted the bad guy to get the better of him he could have done it without making him look like he forgot how to fight altogether (he basically stood there and took an ass whipping).Dacascos obviously is a talented martial artist. More so than Van Damme or Seagal. And yet -as luck or fate would have it- never achieved even their level of success. Ironic that he's probably better known from a cooking show than from what he does best. Kick ass. Ahh well, life has a sense of humor. All I can say for Alien Agent is that it's better than most B-movies which may or may not be saying much. Why don't you be the judge? Love, Boloxxxi.
zerozx First of all, I think it is way better than "I am Omega", BUT some aspects of the movie let me be disappointed. Well since I am very Martial Arts-oriented I make the short version and comment on those, particularly.... a) first fight: Mark vs Darren Shalhavi ( Yes I know this guy, a very neat Martial Artist, also unheard of guy Here ), the fight after Mark came out of the damaged car.... Yes, one of my personal favorite fights, a very consistent pace by pace choreography. Mark didn't use High kicks, only Close Range Counters, and a sweep at the end. Short, but very acceptable fight scene.b) Mark meeting Isis and her bully partner: Mark fought well against the small fry, good average choreography.... but then seeing Mark struggling against Isis's partner without any Martial Arts move, was a little bit disappointing. Finishing off with a gun shot is way to easy...d) Mark confronting Billy Zane and Isis. well let's get to the ugly part first. Billy Zane's performance was the most pathetic I have ever seen. First he commands Isis to kill off Rykker wimping "Kill him, kill him...." <- the way he said it, was already pathetic. A real main villain would have been more sinister,.... but after Isis obviously couldn't finish Rykker, he then wimped "Okay,... let him watch then..." And after he said "I will return with thousands (of troops)" that's where I started laughing at him... Man, and at the end, Ceylops didn't even return, HAHAAAAA!!!!But now back to my real purpose the Martial Arts fight sequences: Isis vs Mark.... this at least should have been the highlight of the movie,.... but it didn't turn out this way,... AGAIN... Yes, I appreciate that the director let Isis perform some good Martial Arts moves with a Kunai-whip, pretty and good,... but again what about Mark the main actor??? I thought he would at least land 3 or 4 moves, of Punches and Kicks against Isis, and we Martial Arts fans would have been more than happy,... well at least Mark got a hold at Isis's Whip which deserve at least a plus point on my Skala, e) And guess what there was another fight, somewhere on the roof top, against to mercenary aliens ( was it at Rykker's World or not ??? I am not sure ) Well anyhow. This is at least a worthier finish , and we see Mark kicking the hell out of the two bullies. This was a good fight in the end, and it saved my mood.Overall this movie was way better than "I am Omega". It was not the neat Highlight as I had hoped for, but in general it was acceptable with some flaws.... This movie had some good average fights, but also some tiny disappointing ones, and a pathetic Billy Zane... My favorite fights were the one at the beginning and in the end, the one where he fought of those thugs. I must say, it is somehow again a little bit of a shame of how a director can portray a wimpy Villain Leader and didn't use Mark's incredible Martial Arts talent to full potential yet again.
