Hmm, it's just my opinion, so don't take it too much to heart - poor photographic direction, poor sound, poor foley, poor line delivery, poor acting, poor lighting, poor exposure in some shots, poor choreography... but most of all, the characters were far from believable to me - dumbstruct goons that stand around while thier mates get shot, and can be taken out by a bonk on the head (despite wearing helmets).

Why did the heroine return to the first goon after knocking him out? I thought she was going to ask him if he was ok and help him up! :D If the goons cant take a knock like that, then how come they were bulletproof later on? 5.56 nato's (assuming g36's still use them in your world) hurt a heck of a lot more than a shove from a girl.

Why didn't the goons shoot the heroine at the end, instead of giving her a chance to nail them both?

Why didn't the second goon shoot the heroine when she dispatched his buddy?

On the plus side, I thought the vfx and some of the sci-fi props were ok. But overal the whole thing felt like a poorly realised computer game tribute that didn't quite live up to the (pretty cool) concept. Not once could I suspend my disbelief and sink into the film. Everythign felt slow and undramatic. :(

Don't be disheartened by my opinion though! I think that as you continue to learn your craft, (esp. the technical aspects of lighting, sound, shot choices etc), if you were to re-apply yourself after some critcal self-evaluation you could do something cool with this.

Thanks for sharing with us. :)
