The Colony (2013) Review by tetraslash from Canada
First off, since IMDb doesn't allow half-ratings and the current IMDbaverage is way below what the movie's truly worth, I decided to up myrating to an 8. I've been giving thought as to whether I should settleon a 7, but knowing that The Colony was a B-movie, I generously gave itan 8.
This movie is surprisingly done well. I have a personal liking forpost-apocalyptic settings, and this one hits the nail on the spot, forwhat they chose. As the plot states, a small colony of survivorsattempt to survive an ice age, and some unforeseen circumstances occur.
There isn't much I can say about the movie, apart from the fact that Ifelt that it was definitely worth the time to watch. It's a reallysolid movie, and you won't regret watching it. The acting was fine,there were no outrageous moments, and there were no issues with theother details in the movie, such as the CG (which was done prettygood).
The pacing of the movie is relatively nice, and the movie finishes justright. The movie wasn't stretched out, nor cut short. Anypost-apocalyptic movie can easily be over- or underdone (trying to cramin too many subplots in a small timeframe, or not putting in enough totake full availability of the setting), but this one has just enough.
There's not much else I can say without spoiling the movie, so I'lljust say that if you like post-apocalyptic movies, you're sure to havea kick out of watching this one.
The Colony (2013) Review by siderite from Romania
The Colony started a lot better than other post apocalyptic movies. Itpresented a cataclysm (one pretty hard to believe, but let's justassume we can go past it), a survivor colony, with characters and ideasand rules and an event that changes the status quo. I was beginning tofeel good. Not only a decent film, but a sci-fi horror as well.
Then audience profiling cast its ugly head. The characters have to becardboard clichés that we've seen in so other bad films. The old peoplehave to be surpassed and replaced by the young. The villains just wantto destroy and snarl. In the end, it just turned into a joke: a highlyorganised team of survivors run away aimlessly firing guns in everydirection but the enemy, while a pack of wild humans attack withmachetes and other similar devices, like a bad remake of the Anglo-Zuluwar.
Bottom line: started good, continued bad, ended stupid. So an averageHollywood sci-fi.
Good actors like Bill Paxton and Laurence Fishburne are stuck in filmslike this. They do their best, but really, that is limited by thesingle dimension of the script. In the end they have to be either goodor bad and anyway they have to die for the main, young, beautiful,incredibly stupid main characters to rise to the opportunity. Thingslike these make me not trust the hope of humanity surviving a disaster.
The Colony (2013) Review by Moriaty Moriaty from Croatia
Interesting atmosphere, solid set of actors, good opening of moviewhich draws you somewhat in, waiting what will happen next.
Solid graphics...
Film moves on and somewhere in the end of first third of it, CUT!.
Its like somebody came in to the set and said: "Wrap it up guys, we areclosing!".
End is terrible, and over all everything that happens in first part ofthe movie is blown in the rest of the movie.
Nothing special, already seen, and definitely not gonna see it again.Not even recommended.
Its like short B-movie based on a short survival comic book story. LikeI said i don't see what they where thinking, or what went wrong and whois a guilty party.
Graphics, actors, set, atmosphere, story, it all holds separately asparts of good movie but all together just fails terribly.
