Rotor DR1 (2015)

Good movie but grossly overrated

everything you have heard about this movie is true.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Well, the script had some potential when I saw the trailer of this movie and unfortunately the trailer was the best thing about it. Apart from that this is one of the most boring movies I've watched in 2015. The acting was horrible. I get that they can't afford good actors, but they should've tried harder Music was what you expect from a no-budget movie- it's like they use the same database with bad soundtracks.The story itself makes no sense to the end and it drags and drags the viewer into a collection of boring clips with nonsense that makes no sense or relationship to the story - felt like they were trying to make a 20-minute short film into a full feature so they just slowed everything down and filled it with useless dialogs.

This film is an interesting concept in that its a community collaboration apocalyptic genre film with a strong focus on Drones "RotorDR1". For a small budget movie of this type they have done remarkable job i.e. Cinematography, Storyline, Acting, Directing etc.Now if you're a Drone/RC enthusiast, then you're really going to love this movie. WOW.. was i surprised.. the first time I saw the racing it looked amazing but whole racing thing has really taken off in the real world!! Really hoping the non Drone Community like this story as much as my family do and it gets more media coverage. Would really love to see more from the Cast and Crew of Rotor DR1.I think it's the sort of film/story that has so much potential!! Hoping to see a part 2 soon :D

The lead actor is the director's son. That should have said something right there. Got bored with this. I turned it off after 30 minutes. Had a hard time trying to figure out where the film was going. Everything seemed so drawn out. The conflicts were unwarranted. I will watch any kind of budget film but I could not get past this one. However, I could see where the film could have gone. This is one movie I could see being redone. I could not understand why they were after Kitch when his place was burned down. The reason for chasing him wasn't valid at all. Just didn't make any sense. Are there many other films out there using the drone concept?

Not a bad story line, not a bad script, but some of the worst acting I've ever seen. The main character isn't bad, it's the supporting cast that ruins the movie. And the director seems to have fallen in love with his footage because he couldn't cut anything! It does drag on (and that's only the first half!). 4C and Maya must be good friends of the director who were cashing in on a BIG favor because they're not even close to being actors--- they're pretty good at reading aloud but they better keep their day jobs. I will watch almost any movie regardless of the quality but I couldn't finish this one! Christian Kapper, you have potential but steer clear of this director in the future!
