Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever

Dotsthavesp I wanted to but couldn't!

TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

louisesingleton Thought this film was a good idea when I read about it and thought something like this could happen, but wished I hadn't spent my time. That's time I can never get back. It may be a low budget film but it looks cheap and the acting is so bad that acting seriously can't be their day job. I think the child and the horse are probably the best actors in it. One thing I can't believe though is how I managed to sit and watch this tripe. I guess I was hoping it would get better......but it didn't. I usually look on here first before watching a movie but I didn't with this one, suppose that'll teach me.GIVE IT A MISS!!!!!!!!!

Seba After seeing some bad reviews I was expecting a boring movie, but it was totally the opposite. If you are not the type of person that need to see the million dollar effects and the top paid actors to enjoy a movie, you will not regret watching this one. The possible fact of the USA not able to paid their debt and the massive cyber-attack that follows make a very interesting idea. It has a good plot, nice filming and it's great how they manage to make a movie on this complicate subject with a really low budget ($200.000). I would like to see the same movie, same idea, same director, same writer but with a Hollywood budget!

g-w-l It could have been a great story, with this actors in place and a lovely set - low budget or not - this could have been a great movie. The nationalistic undertone: 'only American goods is good' and all the stereotypes shows clearly, the director Jeffrey Travis has no clue about modern psychology - how people act in real situations and he forced the actors to be in high gear on the beginning of nearly every cut. Like when a car is running in first gear and full speed all the way. The body language will automatically be unnatural and artificial. Actors in Blockbuster movies have the same arms and legs and body - they just use them on a more elegant way - by switching to second, third, fourth and fifth gear in acting. Results in more calm actors and balanced, higher speed.And technical it is fare out. As Engineer I have designed enough chips to know they only can do simple things. Switch on some pixels on a screen, or off. All are designed by different people, with different ideas, and doing different stuff. They will never, ever work together! One code does not work on another chip from another company. Apple code does not work on Android Phones etc. And last but not least: Japanese People are working together in large corporate structures. Chinese people do never act as one. They have always in history worked in clans and families. Mao did try to change this to a collective structure, without very much luck. Now in 2013 they are back in the old family structures again: "My family is producing chips for Apple and hates your family, because they producing for Microsoft....Google... whatever" This is the reality, when we are living and working in China today.The suspicious mind of our ancestors the monkeys can still show up in all parts of our earth. Like in this movie... Do not make the world a saver place, do not wake up people, only spread unnecessary fear and takes hope from many people. Producing enemies is easy, producing friends anywhere is a lot harder.

altarama Dragon Day was a compelling film to watch and kept me riveted to the very end. Although clearly a very low-budget movie, it did not suffer from frequent ills of indie films-- the pacing is very rapid, and the story unfolds quickly, and I admire the filmmakers for boldly taking on such a big topic with such limited means.The movie deals with Duke Evans, an ex-NSA engineer, who heads to a remote mountain cabin with his family. While there, the USA is attacked in some fashion through a cyberattack that shuts down all modern systems including electricity and water supplies. The film suggests that the attack comes from China because of our failure to pay our debt.During the film, we see the chaos of this cyberattack as if through a peephole-- only what the main characters see. Although I found myself wishing there were more scenes showing the bigger effects of the disaster, it forced me to stay with the family and experience it as they experienced it.One of my favorite characters in the film was the Mexican illegal immigrant Alonso. His appearance as a critical part of the story was moving and unexpected. The ending managed to steer clear of clichés and was a thought-provoking turn into something different. It had my friend who saw it with me talking about it for quite a while.
