The Soiled State of Solid State
I'm a big fan of this genre and I always dig films with this kind of set up, low budget included. This film listed at $300k, I have seen fantastic films done well within that figure. I went in with good expectations and was literally offended by the half way point. The synopsis alone is misleading a little because I did not get at all what I expected. It's about an aging rock band trying to get back together although their back story is meaningless, it has nothing to do with the film. Yes a meteor crashes after an attempt to blow it up does work leaving what appeared to be a small chunk of it hitting the Earth at an unknown area. All this seems to be done out of frame, as is most of the action. What we end up with is a bunch of horribly unlikable characters wandering the streets wondering what has happened. The acting is horrendous the cinematography is poor, the CGI is just pathetic. The plot, if you can call it that, has so many unexplained inconsistencies, that when they do try to explain the what & the why it only becomes more of an eye rolling mess. Picture a SyFy channel film only much much worse. Believe me I would much rather spend time reviewing something great that I enjoyed, but after such an assault on my eyes it's seems only fair to return the favor. If this was a spoof film straight up it may have worked out fine, but the attempt at seriousness pulled this sucker down to a 1/10 rounded up. Solid State=Solid Waste
Waste of time and money.
This film looks and plays like a stereotypical film school project. Everything is kind of half-@$$ed and nothing really works. The inspirations of the cinematography is obvious with people horrors that look and act like they were ripped straight out the extras cast for The Ring. For something that is supposed to be horror the writers fail to make any characters you will care about. They are just thrown on the screen with barely any introduction and occasional allusions to past events behind current group tensions. Even the magical world-saving MacGuffin was introduced with such a whiplash inducing corner turn that I had to waste precious braincells remembering that it had been alluded to once an hour earlier. Most of the "twists" are from so far out in left field that you are left wondering what just happened. I could almost forgive the poor acting if these were a bunch of people new to Hollywood but the stars all have filmographies in the double digits and their delivery of lines is as a wooden as the stars of a grade school play. Heck, I've seen porn with better developed plots than this offal. I generally have no problem watching B movies and have enjoyed more than a few amateur forays into film. Movies like this give low-budget a bad name. Much better can be done but who wants to gamble if things like this are what you see when you wander off the big-budget blockbuster release path. In the end, about the only good part of this film was the poster. Save your money and your good taste and give this one a pass
Disappointing
This was definitely a budget movie. the story line sold the movie but the acting was poor.there was a waste of film,money and time in making this movie.its the kind of movie u can never watch even if u are bored and out of movies.the effects are too out dated for a 2012 movie. "Flash Gordon" an 80s movie had better effects and acting than this. the story line isn't even that great and no wonder it never made it to the top box office charts. it is more of like a high school screen play than a money making movie. everything seems to be delayed,the speech pattern is too obvious that they are forcing the acting. for a person like Vivica Fox this is an all time low, i have been a fan and this was disappointing. copying moves from "the ring and the grudge" did not help because its way too obvious.
Descends into terrible CGI
SOLID STATE is another indie science fiction feature about a meteorite landing on Earth and causing all kinds of unforeseen problems. The leads are members of a rock band who get caught up in the alien shenanigans, but truth be told this is a near worthless production. A cameo from an openly embarrassed Vivica A. Fox, of KILL BILL fame, is the nearest this gets to being professional; the rest follows low rent scream queen Debbie Rochon around endlessly. The chaotic climax descends into unending terrible CGI which has to be seen to be believed.
Arrrrrrrrghhhhh!
This film is so crucifyingly bad it's almost worth watching so that you can say you've watched the worst movie ever made. Well, only if you have 90 minutes to waste and you're quite, no, *very* drunk. Or at least partially anaesthetised. It's so bad that it may well destroy the careers of all who worked to create it. It's so bad that the writer and director should be arrested for cultural vandalism, for possibly losing the $300K (really??) that some poor, misguided people invested in its production and the trauma inflicted on those unfortunate enough to have sat through it. Like me. The cameraman, the editor and the casting director should all take a low bow, too, for creating a movie that is more Z than B. In fact it's far so beyond Z that you'd have to invent six new alphabets. How do films like this get made? I've seen movies made with an iPhone and iMovie that are a million times more sophisticated in every cinematic way. Don't the Italians have *any* shame? Avoid it like a cosmic plague.
