I was expecting something awful from what I read about Interceptors, but actually it wasn't that bad. Granted it is far from great but there are much worse movies out there. Okay there are a lot of problems, the story is highly derivative with little that comes across as really believable, there are frequent logical lapses all over the place and they are not mild ones, Olivier Gunnar is much better in action than he is as an actor where he is unintelligible and wooden, there is little interesting about the characters and the script is bad enough to make the toes curl. However, it does look as though some effort is made with Interceptors. You can at least see what's going on, the settings are quite good and the photography and editing while not award-worthy are more polished than usual. Likewise, the special effects are not what you call great, a little drab and awkward in movement, but they actually do look finished. The soundtrack is great, it is very energetic and driven with some catchy moments, while there is much fun to had in the action and how its choreographed, and in the entertainment value provided with the attempts made to make the many implausibilities credible. Apart from Gunnar, the acting is not too bad. Interceptors is never what I call dull either. All in all, not great but not terrible either. 5/10 Bethany Cox

So bad it's almost funny. If it showed the slightest amount of self-awareness, it could be very funny. Instead it's just the worst piece of politically correct (hero team: white man, black man, Hispanic man, white woman) science fiction (an insult to the genre) action film (again, an insult to the genre) I've ever watched. Fortunately I caught it free on cable. I hate to think people ever paid money to see this. Was it direct-to-video or made-for-TV? It even gives those categories a bad name. My favorite part is when the hero walks out of a nuclear blast site (having survived by hiding in a well?!) and punches the first woman he sees in the face. Amazingly bad!

This movie is pretty good for what it is: a low budget, predictable alien movie with horrible acting. Really people, the acting was better in the American Godzilla. However, they do manage to make one of the best aliens I have seen in a movie of this type. People compare Predator and this movie, and yes it's true, it is a complete rip-off of Predator. However, it is a low-budget monster flick, and it is a lot better than a ton of movies I could mention.

This was obviously very low budget, but saying that it wasn't too bad, the plot was fairly obvious but isn't that what action movies are about. The ending may have been a bit cheesy but that can't be helped. The Lead actor Olivier Gruner has a future in action movies if he can keep that level of action up in his movies, he's Van Damn-esq right down to his accent. The alien was a bit like the predator but it was still quite a fun film.
