no-skyline There's absolutely nothing original in Coronado, the acting is average at best the script could use a serious polish but somehow it remains fun. The obvious comparisons to this film are the likes of Romancing the Stone and Sahara. But comparisons fail to take into account that Coronado was made on a 10th of the budget of Sahara which itself was no great film.They've managed to squeeze quite a lot into the film for $4.7million and there is a bridge sequence which works really well. It's just a shame they didn't have more money to get some beter quality actors add a bit more to the script. The story is very predictable with a few twists and turns added it would have been far superior.Fun on a budget, nothing original but if you loved Romancing the Stone you'll get some enjoyment out of this. 6/10
teleadm-persson It didn't feel like a movie, and was thankfully short (under 90minutes), it felt more like a commercial of possibilties in computer graphics: Most of the special effects are great, to be sure. But that cerainly don't a great or even a good movie make. Not saying it's absolutely worthless viewing, since it's possible to see what are the possibilities in CGI or GCI, or what ever it's called.As I read somewhere, "You can't fix it in the cutting room", a bad story and non-directed actors, can't be fixed in the cutting room or even with the most magnificent special effects! Things can be improved in the cutting room if they have a real director and material to work from.However they thought this could be sold in USA is anyones idea, since USA is the crooks.And isn't it sooo typical of low budget stories, they have to create an imaginative country south of Mexico??Well Well I gace it 2! Just because of the special effects, the rest is absolute trash!
pmaner Well I was at Blockbuster looking for something to fill part of my Saturday and ran across this one stating the effects were from the team of Independence Day. That was the draw, and I just finished watching it.Kristin Dattilo is the redeeming factor in this and I would like to see more of her, so I logged in here to see what else has has done. But as mentioned, that film is not a great piece of work. It is a good Saturday afternoon movie and not a waste of time.The story line is a bit weak, but I was not looking for an in depth film, and I did laugh a few times. It is nice to see a woman as the action hero, granted this is not a Laura Croft movie, but it was worth the $4.
zilleeizad This was definitely the best rip-off of mindless action flicks. It has great subtle puns aimed at movies that portray upper class Americans getting themselves involved in other people's mess in various parts of the worlds and then miraculously turning everything around for good. It is a story of an uptown girl from America who goes to Switzerland because her fiancé leaves something behind which he was supposed to take on a business trip. The search lands her in South America in the middle of a revolution. There she not only finds her fiancé but also becomes a part of the revolution. The film is extremely funny. The humour in it is outstanding, acting is wonderful, it is very well set up and keeps on surprising you till the end. I loved it. It's a comedy so watch it for what it is supposed to be.
