Nemesis 5: The New Model

Whoa first it had the longest buildup w credits then credits again wth???So is this an official Nemesis film? If yes why? The acting is non descript, the action scenes are atrocious. It almost feels like a fan movie or something. Oh and using toy plastic laser guns is too obvious. So hmm why a two? Well the music is actually pretty damn cool, its the only redeeming quality of this movie. Oh and the chicks are cool some classic from the franchise and some not. So I take it another tax write off.

Sci Fi robot vs augmented human movie with gun fu and kung fu. The best way to describe it is to describe the first 15 minutes. There is a very very long scroll describing a long and involved back story. Then the credits start, inter spaced with a shot of a hill in the desert and nothing happening. Finally there is a girl in an alley, and she hears gun shots. In the building is an older actress in black business attire with high heels and a mini skirt, who is "shooting" at a combat robot. Except the guns were toys off a discount rack and the actors were flicking the guns towards each other and they put in cheap effect in post. Then the actress slow runs over and beats the robot with weird spark effects. Then a long voiceover where the child actress describes a bunch of back story that may have been interesting to see, about living with the older actress. The older actress disappears and the movie appears to start with a scene where the child is now 20, and is seducing another woman only to shoot her in the head without earning, and we learn through terrible computer effects that she is a death bot. A second set of credits start. Not joking. At least as long as the first set of credits. That ends finally, with two women in weird blond wigs and red sex outfits slow walking doing the same weird gun flick shooting, with even worse special effects, as the child now adult character walks slightly faster than them to get away, and a cut to the simply worse TV movie version of a news cast ever. All with terrible yellow filters on 90% of the shots. It is all so bad. The acting was like a bunch of middle school kids playing with a camera phone making a movie to pass an afternoon

This film is what happens when the local goth/rivethead folks make a movie. Yeah, the dialogue and plot are bad, but the music is fantastic. They even got VAC to do the theme. Other songs are provided by Pandora Black (if you liked Switchblade Symphony, you'll like them). It's mildly entertaining, and makes for good late-night viewing.

After two plus decades without a Nemesis movie we finally got one here. And it's about time! Thank God because I was planning on killing myself if another one didn't come to fruition. Nemesis 5 has everything: ugly actors, CGI so bad even a blind man can perceive it, horrible acting, cheesy EBM soundtrack, abysmal action sequences, excruciatingly slow pacing and meaningless fillers and, the cherry on top, one of the worst anticlimactic endings of all time. And, of course, it has a political message involving communism battling fascism which is mentally deficient. Anyways, I can't keep up the charade. This movie sucked and is nowhere near as good as the first three Nemesis movies but I will say this; it was better than Nemesis 4. So there's a plus. You might get a chuckle out of this one but this is the Hindenburg times infinity. For maniacal and desperate completists at the very best.

In my opinion this film is for the hardcore fans of the franchise only and even for the hardcore fan it might test their patience. I enjoyed seeing Sue Price make a brief appearance. I enjoyed the music. I enjoyed seeing this director's take on the Nebula, it was kind of Tron like, I dug the effects. It was also nice to see the twins given an homage even though they don't look that close to the originals. This film made me think that a super fan of the franchise made it. I felt the same way after seeing Phantasm Ravager. At the end of the day I'm glad I saw it. Whether people think it was good bad or ugly I hope the franchise continues.

I usually count on the ratings on IMDB but wow. How this "movie" got anything above a 3 is beyond me. From the bad acting to the grade school special effects to the guy with a mini cam cinematography. Sorry gang, you really got this one wrong.

I came into this thinking it would be something interesting to watch. I was so wrong. I managed to skip through the long opening credits then had enough at the 7 minute point. I have seen some doozies that are crap, and this is yet another masterpiece of crap to add to the pile.

A compelling sci-fi thriller that was extremely entertaining! Stand out performances by Mel Novak, Sue Price and Dawna Lee Heising!
