Normally I am not overly keen on sci-fi movies, but every now and again I do sit down to watch the occasional sci-fi movie. And since I was given the chance to watch "La Última Fase" (aka "The Final Phase") I did sit down to watch it.
I had no idea what I was in for here with this 2020 movie from writer and director Gabriel Díaz, aside from it being a Spanish sci-fi movie. But hey, I went in here with an open mind, so writer and director Gabriel Díaz had every opportunity to bedazzle and impress me.
But ultimately this movie was a swing and a miss. The storyline was just unfathomably slow paced, and since nothing of any interest or worth happened as the movie trotted on, it just felt even more prolonged. I managed to watch about an hour of the ordeal, and then I just gave up out of frustration and boredom.
The acting in the movie wasn't really convincing, especially since all people were doing was sitting around and discussing alien abductions, ancient civilizations and what not. So there weren't much of anything interesting going on, unless you consider a debate club great entertainment.
And the movie was almost devoid of special effects, which was odd, as this was a sci-fi movie. Sure, there were some computer generate images here and there, but nothing overwhelmingly impressive.
