THE MOVIE \u2013 1\/5
\n<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Plot Synopsis: <\/strong>Clay (BRUCE WILLIS) is a hardened mechanic selected to maintain an interstellar ark, leaving Earth from a catastrophic plague. Bound for a new planet, Clay and his small crew \u2014 including custodian Noah (CODY KEARSLEY) \u2014 are responsible for the safety of the last surviving humans. But when a teammate is brutally murdered, the crew discovers a terrifying new threat: a vicious, shape-shifting alien creature whose goal is to wipe out the human race before they reach their new home. Hunted by the invisible enemy, Clay must find a way to fight what they cannot see and protect mankind from total extinction.<\/p>\n

Quick Hit Review: <\/strong>Based on the synopsis above, which I copied from the DVD back cover, you would think Bruce Willis was the main character and while he is in it a lot more than I expected based on his other direct-to-movie disasters, the film pretty much follows the character of Noah (Cody Kearsley, Riverdale<\/em>), a stowaway on board because his knocked-up girlfriend (played by Australian actress Kassandra Clemmenti), who is also the daughter of the ship\u2019s Admiral (Thomas Jane in a very small role, spending most of the movie in a cryogenic sleep). Nothing against Kearsley, and not that he nor anyone else got much to work with or against, but didn\u2019t possess much of a personality.<\/p>\n

The biggest knock against Breach<\/em><\/strong> isn\u2019t so much the acting, which is at times rather atrocious if not also hilarious (Jane\u2019s line reading at the beginning was especially noteworthy), but instead the visual effects, especially during the finale, was absolutely bad, more akin to something you\u2019d see in a SyFy film. And one can\u2019t blame the budget because even in the sci-fi and\/or horror genre, you can have a limited budget yet produce something of quality. This is a film that utilizes terrible CGI muzzle flashes for crying out loud.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

The movie might be terrible, but at least it kind of looked good, even in standard definition. The included Dolby Digital 5.1 track is strong enough, dialogue comes across relatively well but doesn\u2019t quite pack a punch during the action\/fight sequences.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

OVERALL \u2013 1\/5

\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Breach<\/em><\/strong> is just an all around bad movie, the only redeemable aspect might<\/em> be the premise early on, but even there I\u2019ve seen similar plots done better. There is absolutely no reason to even rent this and it\u2019s yet another blemish on Bruce Willis\u2019s filmography, right there with so many of these direct-to-video movies he does I suppose to help pay the mortgage or something.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
