DEAD SPACE: AFTERMATH was a rather big disappointment compared to DEAD SPACE: DOWNFALL, Even though DOWNFALL was no breakthrough epic in animation, it was still pretty good, it was more of a good versus evil type story and it managed to build tension through the use of great sound effects and had characters that you did grow to care about. In AFTERMATH you have a plot told in four different perspectives from four central characters, an approach to storytelling I'm not to particularly fond of because here the central characters are each interrogated and each time the action heats up we go back to the interrogation part where they bring in another character to be interrogated before we can get back to the main plot and every time this happens you'll find yourself going "Get on with it already." I admit I've only played the first DEAD SPACE so far but other reviewers have already said that the people who made this film probably didn't play the game, I'm inclined to agree with them.

The story needed some help at the end. Abrupt at best. The different animation style is jarring, since the main 3D style is the worst. Watchable for one viewing.

The 2D animation looks great in this film, and it pairs well with the grotesque nature of the story and it's hyperviolent contents, but then there's this awful... AWFUL 3D animation to represent the present day, and it's so, so, so, so, bad. Just an eyesore. I don't know who's idea that is, or what kind of budget constraints may have forced the team's hand, but the results are terrible to look at.

The plot is generally interesting, following the very fun ship-gets-taken-over-by-monsters formula. As well, the 2D animation for the first three characters' memories were great and meshed very well with the grotesque violence. However, the last character's 2D animation seemed to be a bit disconnected, completely removing the most horrifying features of the necromorphs and reducing them to generic monsters. Even worse was the 3D animated segments that interlace the entire film: they're an eyesore. To think a film so ugly could come out in 2011 is upsetting.

This is a good Zombie movie, and is unique in many ways; However, the 3D animation is some of the Lowest quality I've ever seen, on the bad-level of Berserk 2016. the 2D animation is Great, however, and this really diversifies itself with a unique "memory" twist. The animation Style actually changes depending on whom is Remembering, which is just great. It shows the juxtaposition's of the survivors and their mentalities, and brings into question what is true and what is false, when though there's actually not much room for interpretation. the voice actors did a great job, and they seemed to play their roles seriously. Of course this is a B-movie, certainly, as it is a Zombie film after all, and you can tell the 3D engine was rushed; even though 3D is actually Way easier than 2D (which gets stranger the More you think about it as just Why is 3D so awful? I still can't figure is question out). The story itself is believeable and realistic, assuming you played the First Game, Dead Space, which is a 9/10 game on my scale with an excellent story. It plays directly on that canon, and makes some serious lore contributions. I loved the 2D animation in this, as gruesome as it is, and it is that great because you can tell they put a Lot of effort into the 2D. You will like the characters, empathize and sympathize with them, and you can see just how debilitating the effects of this artifact are. It also brings up Many hints for Dead Space 2, also a 9/10 game on my scale with a great story. I rate zombie movies and games Higher than other films As A Genre because zombie films and games get Bad support, and are usually low budget and terrible. This film, however, is actually supported by a big wallet and is surprisingly well-done considering the bigger the company gets the Worse the Artistic products that come out of it are. If you Love Dead Space 1 and 2, then this film is a must-own, but I'd still say the First DS film, Dead Space Downfall, is the better of the two.
