The Darkest Hour - more CGI than you can shake a stick at - General

[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/FeLpQ.jpg[/IMG] [QUOTE]In Moscow, five young people lead the charge against an alien race who have attacked Earth via our power supply.[/QUOTE] [video=youtube;VUznviXV-U8]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUznviXV-U8[/video] Looks positively retarded. Which is exactly why I want to see it.

Looks silly enough to be enjoyable.

Utter and pure shite

90% of those effects are cringeworthy. You can tell they were made in like a weekend with After Effects.

The best part is that is has an estimated budget of $44mil.

[QUOTE=scotland1;33508442]The best part is that is has an estimated budget of $44mil.[/QUOTE] they must have embezzled half of it

looks crap also what's the deal with trailers that spoil so much of the film. couldn't they have saved the part about electricity giving away the aliens for the film itself?

Look how they throw those bulbs, [img]http://img204.imageshack.us/img204/7950/20111130180414.png[/img] so wasteful A real stalker only needs one bolt, to find an electrical anomaly. [img]http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/6557/20111130180315.png[/img] rookies die in the zone

The interesting part is the alien life form. [editline]30th November 2011[/editline] At least it isn't set in America.

I don't know it didn't look so bad. Also some of the effects were pretty cool. Hell of a lot better than Skyline anyway.

Most Generic Title Of The Year 2011

Looks hilariously bad.

looks like a fun enough movie without being too serious like Shitline and i like Emily Hirsch

Taking place in Russia to cash in on "Russia is cool".

Better than New York.

I just want an alien film to take place somewhere boring Like Portsmouth.

Attack The Block.

looks someone made a pretty good use of those video copilot tutorials [editline]21st November 2011[/editline] the poster is awful. The text doesn't look right and the picture reminds me of the Happening

Why does the alien bother dragging people by their feet if it can vaporise people instantly?

Y'know, with that poster, I'd almost think that the title was Survive the Holidays.

Christ it bothers me how bad this movie looks. The CGI feels so generic, and remove the CGI and you get a ultra shitty camp fest.

I'm looking forward to this one. It looks very different. At least it's an original idea. It looks bad but might appear good.

This doesn't look any worse than any other apocalypse or alien invasion movie. Or Transformers.
