Event 15 (2014)

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Watching the movie now. Looks like it might not be too bad, but nothing more distracting from taking something semi-seriously than to immediately see gross uniform discrepancies as a veteran. The Sergeant and the Pfc. rank insignia are both upside down.

Claustrophobic comes to mind, but if you can get past this then its an interesting plot. It made me think after, as we never know what goes on in the background of governments, MOD and .....If your in the mood for a fantasy film then you watch one, if your in the mood for science fiction you watch one.This is feasible and will have suggesting to yourself, do that and do this. This is no action packed drama, but it gets you thinking. Maybe we will have some more respect for soldiers from any country that suffer from Post-traumatic stress disorder. What we see now was ignored a lot in WW1 and even WW2, solders were shot!

I just watched Alpha Alert (or Event 15 as some may call it) and I was VERY pleasantly surprised. I truly expected a military cliché movie from start to finish and to be honest, the only reason why I watched it was because of Jennifer Morrison. Loved her work on House and Once Upon A Time and thought "Hey, she is easy on the eyes so it cannot be too bad right?" I am glad I watched this hidden gem! The story is pretty straightforward at the beginning: It shows the comments in individual therapy sessions of 3 soldiers. As they leave the therapy facility in an elevator, something happens to make the elevator get stuck. Panic sets in as crazy events happen next as the soldiers try to get out of the elevator to help the situation. Truly to tell anymore I am afraid I will give something away. All I can say is this: KEEP WATCHING! There will be a major WTF moment followed by several more smaller ones after. The movie really picks up after about 20-25 minutes.Two standouts in this movie for sure. Jennifer Morrison as Cpt. White is spot-on and solid (and still easy on the eyes). She plays the lead and carries it well in this movie. Josh Stewart as Oldsmand was BRILLIANT casting and for those of you who like The Collector & The Collection, he once again shows us and Hollywood why people take notice of his acting skills.I gave this a 7 and I am SHOCKED the rating is so low. I know some people have "complained" about the authenticity of the military actions/sequences/protocol. IT IS A MOVIE! IT IS FICTION! It is not like they went and made the people wear purple and sing in Russian. Don't let that run you away from this movie.If you are someone who needs everything to fit nice and neat and have no holes at all in a movie, this may not be for you. However, if you are someone who likes good acting, and want a movie that throws a curve-ball at you while entertaining you, I HIGHLY recommend this one.

by messed up, i mean its great, its got everything that a movie like this should have. not knowing what the hell is going on until the right time. and also three great actors that know what there doing. Jennifer Morrison was amazing i've only seen her in once upon a time. but in this movie she really shows off a side of herself i didn't know she could play. people are giving this movie a bad rating. but don't listen to them watch the movie yourself and then you decide. and don't go (falling asleep in the first 10 minutes cause it seems boring) believe me ...it does pick up and it picks up very well. give this movie a chance because i'm glad i did
