Review of Revolt (2017) by Chan N — 11 Apr 2018

Just watch blombcamps 'Rakka' or anything else by studio oats because this is just a poor version of what he's doing, independently, I might add.

Its not horrible and sometimes touching and fun, in a splatterfest way. The acting was ok with a halfway solid cast. Dialog and story wise its not going to be anything new but some of the shots in this are very clever.

Here's the thing. Its half a movie. Throw away characters at every turn (sometimes in pretty cool ways). Nothing is ever explained. One of the main characters just up and disappears halfway through the movie (no pun intended). And the "leading man" really cant hold it on his own.

I really like the setting and the backdrop of east Africa and the effects were passable.

I'm sure there was meant to be more to this story but either time/money hacked into this VERY noticeably.

You wanna watch big weird robots blast people to smithereens with no explanation. This is it.
