Review of Monsters

Monsters (2017 Video)
3/10
Almost good, needed more exposition and better script

Warning: Spoilers
I'm thinking there was something lost in translation because for this being a low budget film they actually had more locations and sets than most rom-coms and more CGI and special effects than star trek. For most with low tolerance for bad movies this would be unwatchable but for people like me that can watch almost anything it only needed some polishing. I don't think the version I watched had excessive profanity, sex, or gore, I'd give it a PG13. It was like a WW2 live action movie wrapped in an anime scifi package. The names are hard to follow, some of the characters are not introduced properly, and there is some confusion to the viewer about where they are going and why. Really all it needed was someone to clean up the script and dialogue and it would have been as good as a bad Hollywood movie.

Plot: A group of soldiers is sent in a tank on a mission to an undisclosed location. There is some disagreement between natural humans and clone humans onboard when the mission changes. Robots, mutants, rebel factions, and virus infected "zombie" humans stand in the way.

P. S. This doesn't happen anywhere near a starship.
