It's watchable despite essentially being what can only be described as a two-hander episode of a scifi anthology show never seen outside of a place like Canada in the 90s but that somehow influenced Black Mirror in a cursory way. The premise is slightly believable if you really don't think about it. But the male leads are fun to watch in their bumbling but also oddly tech-savvy criminal ways. The opening song is really good. It is called "Here to Stay" by a musical entity named Knives at Sea. Not sure it fits over the expository montage that starts the film. A lot of the movie does that. Incongruous pieces jammed together in a clunky narrative. Still wasn't the worst thing I have ever seen. Oh, and there is corn. If you fear corn, be warned.

I used to trust the score on here when a film had over 1k votes. Well, not anymore. This film has almost 2k votes and this (at the time of writing this) was a high 5 score, which is good for a horror. This however, is not good, not good at all. This is so poor. Its so low budget, the film goes nowhere, and to say this is a horror is a big stretch. It's a 2 at best, I wasted an hour on this, and hour I won't get back. I presume whoever made the film, had a contact that owned a huge factory that they could use to film in, the factory is the only impressive part of the film. With such a good location, this is a huge waste and they could have done something decent.

Project Dorothy had the potential to be a captivating film, but unfortunately, it fails to live up to expectations. The acting throughout the movie is subpar, lacking the depth and emotion needed to truly engage the audience. Furthermore, the script feels uninspired and overly generic, especially in its portrayal of technology. Instead of offering innovative ideas or thought-provoking concepts, the technological aspects of the film come across as unrealistic and disconnected from reality. As a viewer, it's difficult to suspend disbelief and fully immerse oneself in the story when the technological elements don't make sense. This lack of coherence detracts from the overall viewing experience and leaves the audience feeling disconnected from the narrative. Ultimately, 'Project Dorothy' is not a particularly enjoyable movie. Despite its potential, it fails to deliver on multiple fronts, from the quality of the acting to the believability of the script. While it may have some redeeming qualities, such as decent production values or an interesting premise, these are overshadowed by the film's numerous shortcomings. In summary, 'Project Dorothy' is a disappointing film that falls short of its potential. With poor acting, a generic script, and technological inconsistencies, it fails to captivate audiences and ultimately leaves them feeling underwhelmed.

B-movie that takes a unique spin on the classic sci-fi horror genre. Starring Danielle Harris as a killer 1980s AI, the film delivers a nostalgic yet chilling experience that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats. The plot centers around two robbers, James and Blake, who unwittingly stumble upon a top-secret government facility housing an experimental AI from the 1980s. Unleashing the digital nightmare, Danielle Harris's character comes to life as a malevolent force determined to eliminate any perceived threats. One of the standout elements of the movie is Danielle Harris's stellar performance as the AI with a sinister twist. Her ability to convey a blend of retro charm and ruthless aggression adds a layer of complexity to the character, making her a memorable antagonist in the realm of AI-driven horror. The film cleverly plays on the fear of the unknown, as the 1980s AI navigates through the digital landscape, terrorizing James and Blake in unpredictable ways. The special effects, while intentionally reminiscent of the B-movie era, contribute to the overall charm of the film, embracing its low-budget roots. James and Blake, portrayed by talented actors, bring a comedic element to the story. Their dynamic and banter provide moments of relief amid the escalating tension, creating a well-balanced narrative that keeps the audience engaged.

Its amazing and interesting story. A movie with a really interesting idea and with menacing aliens as enemies. It was mostly fun to watch. Although, it could be a bit messy and rushed sometimes, and had a certain exaggeration at parts. The movie seemed pretty promising and had a pretty interesting idea. The characters were done pretty good as well. Although, the movie became messier and more forced as it went on and came to turn on it's head. A pretty creative movie with really cool monsters. Although, the movie was in general really stupid. It mostly had really stupid characters, where the only likable character was the smartest one, who apparently was supposed to be ''the fool''. It was filled with questionable flaws and was unnecessarily goofy. I genuinely feel bad after watching this. It was just a bad film with some cool elements, and if it was supposed to be bad, then it was good at it.

This film does a lot with very little. It's not a big-budget CGI-laden flick or all-star cast A24-style production, but you never get the sense it's trying to be. It's rather an exercise in budget minimalism within the action-thriller genre, a class of film where operating with little budget is incredibly challenging. In that, it surpasses all expectations. The first thing that stands out is the acting, which stands up admirably against any action thriller, but is head and shoulders above performances in other action B movies. As a lover of this genre, I can tell you that the performances in these kinds of movies are often an afterthought, if not altogether scorned by the cast and crew. In Project Dorothy by contrast, the performances between the film's two stars (Tim DeZarn plays an aging criminal mentor to Adam Budron's character, Blake) feel multilayered, yet natural. The film is not a dialogue-first character piece, but it does interweave a good character-to-character subplot below the main brunt of action and suspense, something movies with 10X this film's budget so often fail to do. The writing also holds up well, with dialogue not feeling forced or over-engineered, and a pacing structure that neither feels too fast nor too slow (another common pitfall of the genre). Lastly, the directing deserves a lot of praise for, again, doing a lot with very little. Keeping an entire film within the confines of an abandoned warehouse is not an easy task for an easily bored action-thriller viewer base (I count myself among them), but the film at no point feels boring or rushed. There are brief moments of camp or that require a brief suspension of disbelief (why is there no dust in the warehouse, for example), but among the pantheon of sins this genre is known for, these are easily forgiven and forgotten, and all in all, I was having far too much fun to care. All in all, this film does an impressive with incredibly little. Hats off to the filmmakers for their efficiency and skill in taking what should have been another wooden micro-budget B-movie, and making it a fun, engaging, and at times even heartfelt story.

I would rather watch weekday, daytime TV over this nonsense... like "My 900 pound life" type of daytime TV. See, I'm normally into quirky types of "B" movies, but this is... quite honestly one of the worst 'films' I have seen in a long, long time. To be fair, I have to put a disclaimer that I saw only about half of it. My whole family agreed we'd rather just watch the Stargate Atlantis rerun that was running on SyFy, so we switched off to that, but I gave it at least a good 40 minutes before I gave up. I'm not sure if you can even call it a film, tbh. I am not exaggerating when I say this has the feel of something I've seen my peers create in Movies class in high school in the late 90s. But they didn't even use Window Movie Maker effects. The production value, effects, and acting are way, way below your typical Matlock episode. It literally seems like a couple of 'bros' got together in a bar and got drunk and decided to make a scifi movie for the hell of it. "uhh huh huh huh dude, yeah man, you should totally make a scifi man, and make sure you give the thing like a hot female face, that always works" . Another way you can look at it is if you were playing the original Half Life and just wandering around Mesa without actually doing anything or encountering anything. My spouse joked that it looks like Iowa Farmland, and although initially I took it as a joke, I became fully convinced that's exactly what they did. It seems like they found an old decommissioned or possibly abandoned car manufacturing plant, as well as a abandoned office building from the 90's +/- 10 years, and just filmed the whole thing there. The initial shots showed car painting/manufacturing robots with literally zero post processing done besides like film grain and upping the contrast. They wander around a large cubicle type of office floor which had been cleared completely of all technology. They placed a couple of old computers on like 2 of the cubicles (out of like 50). The AI's "interface" special effect was literally nothing more than left centered Console Font text in green... There seems to be some sort of AI type entity somewhere in the complex, and that red face you see in the movie posters is literally the ONLY shot they have of the thing. It blinks... Opens and closes it's mouth... looks around. This is worse than stock footage, or maybe that's what it is. You see the camera, on multiple and numerous occasions just sneak up on the characters, as if something is coming up behind them, but it's nothing. Ever. Like how many times can you use a stupid plot device like that? I'm sorry, I just can't... I'll stop now...
