Cool film, great effects, tiny budget.

This is not a Hollywood production spending many millions. This is a tiny production made by people passionate about films made on a miniscule budget. They have squeezed every drop of production value out of the budget and put it onto screen. The actors volunteered their time and poured their hearts into this movie, exhausting themselves over a very short shooting period and even getting sunburned in winter. The VFX were created by volunteers and they look great. True Hollywood VFX are better but then they have massive budgets and way more people working on it and still many VFX shots in Hollywood movies look bad, mainly due to the VFX companies getting no time and being paid the least the studios can get away with.I enjoyed this movie, you just have to remember how it was made and not compare it to Hollywood.

Low key and low budget sci-fi venture...

When I sat down to watch the 2024 sci-fi movie "Offworld" here in 2025, I had never heard about it. But then again, sci-fi movies is usually not my go-to genre of movies for entertainment. But every now and again I opt to check out a sci-fi movie if the movie's cover or synopsis seems interesting enough. And I will say that the cover for this 2024 movie from director Terry Cooper seemed interesting. However, I fear that the movie's cover was overselling the movie by a lightyear or two, because this was most likely a low budget venture.The movie release that I sat down to watch was titled "Offworld: Alien Planet", oddly enough. Regardless, I opted to give the movie the benefit of the doubt.And this was indeed a low budget sci-fi venture.Writers Terry Cooper and Chris Lynch put together a rather bland storyline and script. The narrative was rather sluggish and it took director Terry Cooper forever to go nowhere, and that made it quite a test of will to sit through this ordeal of a movie. I can't claim that I was particularly entertained or impressed with this movie, and it definitely did nothing to put my reluctance of sci-fi movies to shame.I wasn't familiar with a single actor or actress on the cast list, which is actually something I do enjoy whenever I sit down to watch a movie. For a movie such as this, I will say that the acting performances were actually fair.Visually then the movie was actually not too shabby, for a low budget production that is. I've seen far worse special effects and CGI effects in movies with bigger budgets, so at least that spoke in favor of the overall impression of the movie. However, I had a huge difficulty buying into believing that this movie was supposed to take place on a foreign planet.Perhaps diehard sci-fi fans will get a much bigger kick out of watching "Offworld" than I did as a casual viewer. I am definitely never returning to watch this movie a second time, as it was a struggle in itself the first time around.My rating of director Terry Cooper's 2024 movie "Offworld" lands on a two out of ten stars.
