This is actually surprisingly well made ! Great effects, fast-paced action, fan-favourite characters... The actor that played Flint was a bit "meh", but Zartan and Roadblock were fantastic ! A very enjoyable twenty minutes. It was over too fast.

It contains a few elements that I personally don't like (deaths of named characters, cross-over with other properties), but I can see how others might like those, so I don't see those elements as negative points.

Stuff like this (fan films, cosplayers) always makes me wonder how The Rise of Cobra could get so screwed up. We don't need alien Neo-Viper outfits or weird ray guns or underwater X-Wings. Just give the bad guys a blue overall and an AK-47, and that's a realistic Cobra outfit right there !

I liked how the production values were high, and the acting was really good, everything felt right. The crossover was just silly and unnecessary, and the death's/maiming of main characters felt immature, sort of like how resolute was. Really it was a mixed bag for me.

So, was Scarlett dead when Snake Eyes found her or just unconcious?

And then, did Storm Shadow & Snake Eyes die from Ace's missle, or did they kill the Predator?

More questions than answers, but a pretty decent (very gritty with Beach Head) fan film.
