Flashout

Good movie!

This might not be the absolute worst movie of 2019, but it is definitely the worst movie I have seen all year. The script and direction stand out as exceptionally bad and the few things that could have been saved in editing, were not. Each scene felt like it was a poorly planned sketch where each cast member had to write their own lines two minutes before they went on stage and nobody had a chance to rehearse together. I get the feeling that the director was absent during much of the shooting or he clearly had no vision for a coherent movie. Some of the acting is quite bad, but most is decent for a B-movie. With proper direction, at least the leading casts performance, could have been considered good for a B-movie or at times even passable for an A-movie. The quality of the camerawork varies greatly throughout the movie, but overall is not disappointingly bad at any time. Considering one star is the lowest rating possible and worse movies exist, I will give this movie two stars.

I had to search what "campy" means, since six "different" one time reviewers described it as such. Worst fake reviewing ever. Cute girls, terrible "movie" but honestly i lol'ed a couple of times on how bad it was so i'm giving them an extra star for that.

This is just terrible and there is no way that people can even consider watching this "movie". I just want to stick a fork in my eye after watching 30 minutes of this crap!

I too could only bare watching it for 5 minutes. Script? What script, there isn't any. Completely void of anything decent. Just goes to show you anyone with a camera on a phone can make a "movie" if you can even call it that. Word of advice-just because you can do something, doesn't mean it's a good idea.

The brilliant thing about this film is you can't pin it down. It's scifi camp to the extreme. I can see it breaking out to become the new "Rocky Horror Picture Show" with young audiences aping every line in unison and anticipating all the hilariously off-centered moments. Like "The Room", this film is more sophisticated than most people realize.

This was a classic. This movie reminded me of a movie a saw when I was a child. The storyline is a fantasy. This movie was a comedy, drama, and sci-fi rolled up into one. A must watch, with a group of friends and a bottle of wine.

When three gamers from the multiverse find themselves on Earth, pursued by an awkward repairman intent on shutting their misadventure down, amusing complications ensue. A fun, campy sci-fi adventure that's got no shortage of humor.

Flashout is a cute indie production that deftly mixes faux quantum physics, multiverse theory and a multi-orgasmic romp into a package that manages to deliver a number of laughs without seeming excessively contrived or tedious. This is not an A-lister, big budget film, and those who participated in its creation clearly had that firmly in mind as they crafted this silly sci-fi adventure. This film does not try to be anything other than what it is, and by keeping in its lane, it managed to hold my attention and provide a reasonable amount of (mindless) entertainment. At times, the dialogue and plot were nonsensical, both intentionally and unintentionally, and likewise, at times the acting was thin on skill - but the film held itself together well enough to be watchable until the end. There were moments of high-camp greatness where the film seemed to be a distant offspring of silly classics like 'Dude where's my car" and "Barbarella", but alas this was not sustained consistently - if Flashout had managed that feat, I would have scored it a solid 6. Not one to put high on your "must watch" list, but leave it somewhere on there for a grey, rainy day.
