Karry Best movie of this year hands down!
Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic
Payno I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Jerrie It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
danetta cordova If you like thoughtful sci-fi flicks I think you will like this film. There are very cool special effects but they are the icing, not the cake. The heroine was strong, smart and competent, but also human. However I rolled my eyes ( just a bit ) at how her attractiveness was exploited. This is what quality story telling is, not a circus of blasts, bangs and super fast CGI superhero fights (yawn) Don't get me wrong, those can be fun, but they get old fast
Gareth Crook This is full on sci-if, but I like a good post apocalyptic story. It's a bit straight to DVD though, the acting is too forced, very wooden, generally a bit OTT and annoying. The CGI is heavy handed in places too. All that aside, fair play to the production for having a go and getting this out there, the story isn't too bad. I suspect the budget wasn't huge and aside the bloke from Lost (that was also a Hobbit or something), there's not any notable names. It's a bit crap if I'm honest, but I kinda liked it, a little bit.
drhall-672-138129 Few sci-fi character actors outshine the effects and set, this effort stands head and shoulders above CGI due to the tight story line and Excellent acting from D. Monaghan and Sarah Habel. Tom Sizemore has pivotal role in the finale and good to see him living up to his potential. Wayyy better than the big budget busts starring big buck stars. The reason for eight versus 10 stars is the slow script which takes off after a very long buildup, the incredulous position of the protagonist, Abby/Sarah Habel, and the SPOILER ALERT potential to have more fully developed the background of the notorious company profit posturing vs. human sacrifice.The industry has lagged since the inception of The Trilogy for lack of strong character roles and believable story lines, Atomica will live for a very long time as a prime example of an excellent story, film and acting on a very small budget! What The Shining did for horror, ATomica will be known for revitalizing good small budget sci-fi films.
Mikelikesnotlikes This film was obviously made to a tight budget, BUT the money was used pretty wisely. I give points purely for that factor as a canny director and producer will know where to pour on the dollars, and where to save a few cents.The plot was a bit vague and it frustrates me that story lines aren't thought through properly. I thought the tension was good throughout and had me guessing wrong a few times. Was a bit slow in places.The writer should have toned down the importance of the plant to make the actions of the characters more believable (a facility that feeds the entire worlds power grid is manned by 2 people?). I would have found it to be more believable that 2 men might run a nuclear waste disposal facility. No one would want to be anywhere near that. And the antiquated equipment would have looked more at home in my scenario.All up I enjoyed the film, and I recommend it as a dull, rainy day time waster.
