2099: The Soldier Protocol

source: 2099: The Soldier Protocol

So David Arquette was never an award winning actor, but come on! This movie is so stupid. The dialog is atrocious and the story line is ridiculous. I watched it until the end just to see if there were more stupid scenes coming up and I was well rewarded. Three stars because compared to these 2099 "doctors" (and the directors, writers, editors, etc.), I felt uber intelligent. What a stinker.

The trouble with all of these so-called sci-fi movies, streaming on demand (Netflix, Hulu, Prime etc) is they're all generic and boring. Same unknown non actors, same basic boring plot and washed out desaturated boring future or alien planet or spaceship. This one is no exception, and I'm only 30 minutes (1/3 of the way) thru. They cost little or nothing to make, green screen, little or no sets to build and, as previously stated unknown actors working for scale or less. (Good for them, the only good thing coming out of this, they are employed), the other factor is no actual film or videotape involved as it's all shot digitally. I'm sick and tired of this boring dreck, let's get to streaming movies made on a budget!!

The story has potential, the executions were just really bad., hiring David Arquette (I am sorry for this) was a bad idea., +1 on Ms. Rae for her presence in this movie, -1 for the lead actor who can't act., they should have gotten a good B rated Hollywood actor, it would have been much much better., overall. the ending was a dissapointment as well., but seriously. It had potential., but sadly, that's all there's to it, POTENTIAL.
