Fragmentation

One thing I kind of love about 48 Hours is that we sometimes get films that are for all intensive purposes not just homages but close to lo-fi remakes of Hollywood blockbusters, and boy oh boy did Sweaty Equity let off some steam and wear their COMMANDO heart on their sleeve.
Taking the call to arms after it has been 10 years, our lone commando stocks up on gear and equipment and heads out to take on an Aussie psycho. Ring a bell?...
But honestly this was a whole lot of fun. Well edited, good choices of music, excellent cinematic camera angles at times and a stone faced performance by our lead on his mission to save his brother's girl. Drone footage a definite highlight from a technical point of view.
Even the one-line quips ("Just Die!") had that Arnie-bent to it. Original? Pretty much heck no other than the serum, but I farcking loooove COMMANDO so no complaints at my end :D
Story: 2.5/5
Technical: 3.5/5
Elements: 3/5
Overall: 3/5
Hey team, enjoyed watching your film, reminded me a bit of an Arnold movie lol
The story flowed well, there were some good shots there, well done on the SFX and the drone shot was cool.
I felt the location could have been better, felt the story was a bit of a recycled throwback. Had fun with the fight scene, but how come he didn't pull the gun out in the beginning?! lol
I was finding it hard to locate the elements in the film going through it a first time as well.
Regardless - well done team. Good effort! Take that tomato sauce on the side of his face and apply it to some celebratory fish and chips.
