Review of Stasis (2017) by Al R — 24 Oct 2018

Stasis is at best a B movie, in the style of old 1970s made for TV science fiction movies. Two agents from a group of rebels against The Cabal, are transported from a post apocalyptic 2067 to the year 2017, in a bid to prevent a global thermonuclear war that takes place soon thereafter.. Most of the movie consists of agents from the rebel faction, being hunted by a 'hunter' agent from the Cabal, in the year 2017. The Cabal wants to make sure that the nuclear war takes place, as it ensures their own position of power in the year 2067. The rebels want to prevent it, because billions of people will die in the war.

The movie progresses very slowly, and in the end never draws to a conclusion. The end of the movie is like a TV drama style cliffhanger, with the viewer never learning if the nuclear war was prevented. It has a 'To Be Continued' feel to it.

If you like movies that feel like they are written for a 12 year old audience, you may enjoy Stasis; otherwise, your time is better spent elsewhere. I gave it two stars because there was a small amount of watchable action, and the movie did have an interesting premise. Perhaps in the future, someone else will venture to do a remake of this movie, or at least its concept; but until then, meh!
