MOVIE REVIEW: Spectral

RELEASE DATE: December 9th 2016 (Netflix)


DIRECTOR: Nic Mathieu

MAIN CAST: James Badge Dale, Emily Mortimer, Bruce Greenwood


IMDB Story Line:

A sci-fi/thriller story centered on a special-ops team that is dispatched to fight supernatural beings.

WHAT I LIKED

It was a gritty war movie against a unknown enemy. I have not seen this type of a gritty SCI-FI movie since the 2011 movie Battle Los Angeles, It kind of scared you the way they introduced you to the enemy. Through out the movie you are asking your self what kind of enemy is this because it does not seem like what is obvious. It really challenged the imagination of who they where fighting. The creativity of what to do to fight the enemy was well written and believable. The cast was perfect and put together well.

WHAT I DID NOT LIKE

With out giving away to much, the main solution to beating the enemy seemed a bit like Star Wars when Obi Wan Kenobi shut down the tractor beam in the Death Star.

SIDE NOTES

But over all it was great entertainment, I can strongly recommend watching the Netflix Original movie and hope they make a sequel if possible.

Movie was given a well deserved PG-13 on Netflix, depending on your family standards on violence I can strongly recommend this as a family movie.

Due to the fact that this is a Netflix movie I did not see this on the big screen, but they should give this a try on the big screen at the theater, Maybe even on I-MAX

I gave this movie a 10 on the IMDB scale, and will be happy to watch it anytime on Netflix, no need to buy a blue Ray
