The Sky Has Fallen (2009)

Just perfect...

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

If possible I would give that movie a zero... On the other hand the rating of 1 is okay thanks to the gore effects which reminded me a little of the zombie classics of the 70s/80s.Apart from that EVERYTHING in this movie is just really bad - the acting, the camera, the "plot", and I mean bad bad not that kind of bad that one could be tempted to call cvlt ;)Of course I didn't watch this movie in whole - the skipping button was well used.Don't take the IMDb rating of 6,7 serious (at the time of writing that review)- so if you want to waste your time or torture yourself - this movie is meant for you.

One of my friends suggested this to me. I thought he was nuts but I was quite surprised. It wasn't bad at all.Story: definitely unique and different. Not just survivors wandering around. They actually have a clear mission: kill the master of these monsters.Acting: pretty good for an indie. Could've used some more emotion at times.Cinematography: beautiful. A bit too many closeups but you do get some nice wide shots every once in a while, and regardless, it always looks good.Special Effects: this is where it really shines. No computer crap. People get dissected, and the zombies look freaking amaze-balls.Sound: somebody spent some time here. Very detailed. Nothing sounds off or cheap.Music: like a real Hollywood movie. So much better than most Indies.So to sum up, I'd give it a go. The effects alone are worth seeing but it has plenty beyond that too.

The reviews for this film are all over the place.This was a low-to-no budget indie horror film. Where it doesn't show is in the effects and the score. Both of which are excellent. The audio and visual effects people get a gold star.The concept of the film is interesting, though it never really pans out. I was left wanting to know more.The camera-work -- really, the editing, is less than desirable. Mostly the quick cuts to and fro. As another reviewer mentioned, the effects are fantastic, but you only see a few moments before cut-cut-pan-cut.The writing was good. The acting was acceptable. Some scenes were better than others. A few over-acting moments, and some with not enough depth and emotion. But who are we kidding? The same could be said about Kristen Stewart.A solid 5, and a great effort from all involved.

You have to realize this is an indie film. Not a big production with big names or people who have made films for bigger companies. If your a fan of the big production films or of massive cgi, then your not in luck. I personally like to see these indie films, cause there's just a raw persons idea, being acted out on film. The film has a very intimate feeling due to the tight shots and close ups of a lot of the action. you feel as if your in the woos next to the actors and when something pops in to view or moves in the background you feel the surprise, as f you were their. I would have loved to see more of the make-up artistry. The times it showed up you could see the great detail of the make-up. Could of used more moving with the of scenery as most of it takes place with just woods as background. Maybe added cabins or some sort of structure to add more to the visual aspect, giving the feeling of the characters moving, and traveling.Overall i did like this movie, and hope more directors start going back to more make-up for their horror movies. Its a dying art form that's being lost to CGI and Computers to edit in parts and Add effects.
