Dune Drifter

Following a very noisy Star Wars type battle in the vacuum of space, Phoebe Sparrow is marooned on a planet and needs to cannibalize an interchangeable part from a crashed enemy alien ship. I expected them to copy "Enemy Mine" at this point, but they did not. Very boring. Guide: NO swearing, sex, or nudity

Come on first this movie does not deserve a 1 its not that bad of course clear up the fake reviews with the 8-9-10 too because it certainly does not deserve such a high rating. The effects are quit good if you compare this to the awful asylum movies. For the budget they did a great job with that. Looking at the FX the costumes and all they where able to do this with 100k even the spaceship battle at the start of the movie are well done. Its a sci fi very low budget movie. I am giving it a 5 for the effort also the acting was not that bad compared to today standards of beautiful people with no brain.

I should have realized when I saw the word DUNE in the title (trying to cash in on the upcoming remake of the original "DUNE" 1984 classic) and, having seen the stolen film title strap line, from the 1980 film, "Battle Beyond The Stars", I should have just left it alone! However! In my defense (as an ex Graphic Artist and current digital artist) I blame the excellent artwork on the film poster; it seduced me and tempted me and I suffered for art :). There is nothing in the entire film that is in any shape of form akin to any Sci-Fi movie ever made and, certainly not Star Wars...although the Earth fighter ships were quite clearly modeled upon the Star Wars Battle Cruisers of the Emperor. But! After reading the plot/story-line the superb Dennis Quaid and Louis Gossett, Jr. film, "ENEMY MINE" (1985) did spring to mind; it was of course absolutely nothing like (or as good as) the aforementioned classic. I'm not going to waste time on too much descriptive verse as it would give some of the film away like spoilers. The one thing that completely ruined this film was the camera work...as well as the directing. The entire film was shown in extreme close up views and with the jerky movements, akin to the camera action of the crappy "Blair Witch Project", it just got more and more tedious as it dragged on. Other annoying bits were... 1) All the fighter crews women were screaming like squealing pigs but none of the men cried out (tells you a lot about the directors antiquated thought about women). 2) The hyper space flight scenes were ridiculously embarrassing 3) Four alien ship crew members (wearing * wear gas masks) were immune to the female pilots sidearm blasts. Pilots always have a sidearm at their hip and I could not believe it when this female pilot pulled it out of what appeared to be a sort of handbag :) I would have laughed if it wasn't such a monumental * up! 4) The flight suits of both the Drekk alien crew and the Earth pilots looked like sets of overalls that sewage workers etc would probably wear. Watch it or don't watch it...its entirely up to your good selves. Just don't forget it was me who warned you of its dreariness! Sometimes watching paint dry can be so much more enjoyable :)

Abysmal acting, abysmal space combat, abysmal logic, easily the contender for one of the worst movies of all year. Left after 30 minutes to watch something FAR more enjoyable. If you want some indie sci-fi worth of watching go with 10th Cloverfield Lane or the two (second installment included) Iron Sky movies instead of this abortion.

This is a great movie for it's budget. It will lack holyweird effects and high level cgi. It is a nice little story about a little event in some distant war. Do actors play well? Yes. Do costumes and ships look ok? Yes. Expecting high poligon aliens and big sfx fights? Ignore this title. The movie has agreat money-value ratio. Director managed to squeaze a neat lil adventure into this 100.000 budget. Yes, people use nerf guns. Yes, the costumes are hand made cosplay. But the main actress acting is A grade. Story is obvious for sci fi fans, but it is the story that could have happened. This is a not a B-movie about gore and cheap laughs. This is an emotional adventure through the eyes of a futuristic astronaut.
