First off, I'd like to say that I'm not writing some fake review,
I honestly thought it was OK.
I'm a filmmaker myself, so I know it's hard to make one and get it out there. I honestly see this guy's potential, Chris R. Notrolie the director tried his best to make at least a decent movie.
Now, I know this film has it's flaws especially with sound design, I feel right now that his films are a work in progress, you know, he might not have all the film-making tools he needs, especially boom mics, hell I don't even have those.
I do agree that some of the alternate titles aren't great ( "Terminator Rising" is definitely stupid). At my library I found it under the title "Battle-droid" that title is OK, it's original title "Perfect: Android Rising" is alright but I think this one "Battle-droid" just sounds better and he should have kept it that. Also at my library this film gets checked out quiet a bit so I know I'm not the only one who likes this film.
The acting of course is not going to be "very good" but don't go into this or any low budget science fiction action film expecting Oscar wining performances, that's just stupid, just go into this and have fun with it. I will say that the director needs to work on fight choreography and filming it well, because he films too close to the actors in those scenes.
I've seen this a few times and I liked it, besides this is the first amiture film I could see more than once, I have seen others at my library and they where really bad so bad in fact you feel stupid for watching.
Overall a halfway decent little action move that really isn't half bad. I give it a 3/10. Mildly entertaining from star to finish that is OK to watch once and awhile.
