Actuakers One of my all time favorites.
Micransix Crappy film
CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
Rectangular_businessman This wasn't a very good anthology movie in my opinion.While "Dead Space: Aftermath" had a better plot than "Dead Space: Downfall" (Which only consisted into showing a bunch of characters killing and being killed by monstrous aliens) the poor animation and the thin characterization doesn't allow this to be a truly enjoyable film.The CGI from this movie was very ugly and unappealing. It almost like something done in the early nineties, having minimal details, characters devoid of emotion on their faces, which are only able to make robotic and unnatural movements.On the other side, the flashbacks included on "Dead Space: Aftermath" are done in a anime design, which isn't much better either, but it almost look good in comparison with hideous computer animation used in the parts of the movie which take place in the present.None of the stories were particularly good nor interesting, and all of them were a bit predictable and dull.While the premise of showing the same events from different perspectives was certainly interesting and with lots of potential, the overall result still lefts too much to be desired.However, I do think that this was an improvement in comparison with the uninspired "Dead Space:Downfall". Even when this wasn't a very successful experiment, at least it's a step in the right direction.
FlippyisFloppy This was better than what the reviews from others seemed to be. Honestly I enjoyed the movie and I will point out the Pros of the movie and the consPros: +First 3 Animations from the flashbacks where great (wasnt a big fan of the last one but it was fine)+Excellent Story to help fill the gap between the first game and second game.+ Voice Acting was good, not great but good. Cons: - The CGI animation was terribleOther Notes: Yeah yeah I just felt lazy and shorted the review by doing a Pro and Con thing, which is somewhat unusual for a movie review.I'll quickly explain why I gave it a somewhat average rating. The main reason was because of the CGI Animation, I swear to god if they did the regular animation (any of the first 3 flashback)instead, it would of been bumped to an 7 or 8. I can't believe they even considered using that bad of an animation. Otherwise everything else was good about the movie. Last thing, the fourth animation I wasn't particularly fond of. The main reason? Everyone looked like they where on steroids or something....and to me that gives an ugly appearance.But Overall I really did enjoy the movie, it definitely something worth watching especially if your a Dead Space fan.
alonso_dz It's hard for me to understand why this movie has so bad reviews. After watching Downfall, I watched Aftermath with many reserves. But... I was gladly surprised! It is true that the CGI segments were the worse part of it, but the structure of this film is very much like the short "Have I Got a Story For You" from Batman: Gotham Knight, where you get to see the same story from different perspectives, all of them animated by different studios. And all of them were really good! The characters are well defined, and they have more believable motivations. Overall, the film lets us understand much better the story connecting the space monsters and the Marker (monolith).The story is so much more consistent than it is on Downfall. I really think all the video game fans should at least give it a try.
Raymond Ng I personally enjoyed the first dead space animated movie that came out in 2008 so I was eager to see another installment. The first movie had all the elements that made the film great and enjoyable. Unfortunately, I cannot say the same for this one. The problem lies in the direction the film decided to take this time. My main issue with the movie is how it switches from horribly poor cgi to hand drawn animation. It is quite irritating and almost as if the people developing this couldn't decide on one set of animation to take the sequel. Who knows? Maybe they were trying to save some time and money getting this movie to roll out with the follow-up game. The all shade-cell cgi animation during the present was poor and looked relatively similar to that of "iron man armor adventures" TV series on Nick. It might work okay on that show but it just doesn't work in the sci-fi horror landscape which this movie is. We lose a lot of the visual details that are displayed along with the tone of the film it tries to be. Am I suppose to laugh or be creeped out during the scenes involving the daughter Vivian? I would think the latter but I just couldn't help but laugh at how bad it was when they showed her all full of blood and the instant transportations (you know since she's a ghost/hallucination) as her father was being dragged to the chair to be interrogated. I welcomed the hand-drawn animations with open arms when the flashback scenes to aegis took place and prayed it would stay throughout the course of the film. The first movie had the right balance of hand-drawn animation and cgi mixed in so why couldn't this one be the same. Why include the shell-shaded cgi animation that looked like some amateur made it for animation class. The plot was fairly decent but ultimately forgettable so I wont bother addressing it. Overall, I left film feeling disappointed but still entertained. It is worth a rent.
