As I wait for my final group project to be placed into the
folder for submission by our group leader, I had time to reflect on some of the
Sci-Fi flicks I have watched over the past days. Next up for review from that
list is the 2014 space movie Starship: Rising.
Plot/ Starship One - the most powerful warship in the
Federation, capable of destroying entire worlds. When the order is given to
destroy the Earth, Flight Lieutenant John Worthy mutineers Starship One and
takes on the might of the Federation.
I honestly have no idea where I begin with this one. There
are some points that are decent, especially for a lower budget / non-mainstream
film. One of those is the look, with solid CGI, and an overall skilled
appearance. However, there are some issues that I cannot get past such as the
uneven scripting, slow pacing, poor characters, and some extremely incoherent
moments. In the end, this is a Sci-Fi film that I truly cannot recommend for
anyone unless they are true Sci-Fi fanatics. For the casual viewer, this one
may not suffice.
