Outpost 11 (2012)

As Good As It Gets

Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

This is a nice little slab of weirdness. Not the best acting, although not bad either. Odd storyline. Fairly low budget. But there are some interesting ideas, and I love the aesthetics of it. A challenging mix of sci-fi, classic war film, horror and psychological drama. No, not great, but it kept my interest until the end and I was glad to have seen it.

This is an "arthouse picture" from another alternate universe with the feel of a 3 man play. Hard to get through, and I can not promise you will feel at all satisfied if you do, but in the end it is a neat little experience of something new, and that is all that really matters. You need to really suspend your disbelief to get through to the pay off, but there really is a great story under the confusion. These actors, and the crew had to make this tiny speck of a set feel like the entire world, and they do a fine job of accomplishing that. In this new version of our universe it really looks like we have come in just a bit late to the party, all of the characters seem so certain in their beliefs that there had to have been a great cataclysm that we just missed, and they never quite touch on that. The naked lunch effect may be just what you need though. Enjoy.

This film comes with and interesting premise and a somewhat unfairly low rating. An intriguing disappointment.So what for? Well a it's stylish, claustrophobic steampunk romp filmed in pretty much 3 rooms, with occasional use of some great outdoor scenery. Alas it's disjointed and doesn't wrap it's self up at all, yet the spirit is there...Outpost 11 is completely flawed by the final act that makes little sense. It's however far from total rubbish by proxy of it's ambition.6/10 for weirdo effort

***spoiler alert*** This is by far the worst movie i have ever seen. I am appalled that anybody can compare this movie to john carpenters "the thing" the only resemblance it posses to that movie is where its based. I usually enjoy a low budget movie with obvious exceptions, but i am afraid the plot, acting, dialogue, fx, were just terrible. {COMPLETELY UNWATCHABLE}all in all I could make a better movie myself by filming a steaming pile of poo on the floor and still capture the audience and get a better reception.rubbish
