CommentsXp Best movie ever!

TaryBiggBall It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

Keeley Coleman The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

rexferal11-856-669191 There seem to be far too many negatives immediately attached to a film just because it was made on a "low budget." It is as though costs alone represent the film's value. Today, very good movies can be made at remarkably low cost due to the broad availability of high quality HDV cameras, the lessened need for extensive lighting setups, reduced space for sets and equipment, and the ease of mobility from place to place. Additionally, skill bases such as Cinematographer, Camera Operator and Director can be combined into one person as can other skills. The result is a need for fewer crew members. There is an abundance of extremely good, easy to use, digital editing and special effects software one can use at home or office. The number of people who have gained film skills, from pre-production through post, is extraordinary. All this saves money. What is left is how well those film makers spent it and the end result.Storage 24 is an example of talented people doing just that. They've managed to make a suspenseful sci-fi thriller with some class. It is entertaining - and, in the end, isn't that what it's all about?Storage 24 has a good script by Noel Clarke, a capable Director in Johannes Roberts, and solid production values. The cinematography, by Tim Sidell, is commendable, as is the editing by Martin Brinkler. The dialogue, though not worthy of Shakespeare as some would demand, is believable. The acting is realistic and not over the top as in many films - Noel Clarke, Colin O'Donoghue and Ned Dennehy offer solid performances. The special effects are good while not saturating the film. The creature is… well, a very scary creature.All in all, this is a well made film, with an interesting story line. I recommend it… but lay aside any assumptions you may have about "low budget" films.

Leofwine_draca A low budget British monster movie written by and starring Noel Clarke, STORAGE 24 suffers from a distinct lack of originality in the screenplay. The opening of the film is a mere riff on SUPER 8 (except with the cargo being transported by plane rather than train) while the rest of it copies both ALIEN and ALIENS to various effect, as a group are stalked and murdered by a hideous creature within a storage facility.This B-movie was shot by Johannes Roberts, who previously made the marginally more entertaining ROADKILL. He brings that film's Ned Dennehy with him, with the actor once again playing a weirdo who happens to be the movie's most interesting character. Noel Clarke brings a certain charisma to his part here, but his script is definitely sub-standard and seems to have been scribbled out in a hurry.STORAGE 24 does have stuff going for it here and there; the design of the creature seems to have been inspired by Cronenberg's THE FLY and looks pretty cool, and the gore effects are adequate. But the characters are largely uninteresting which makes it hard for the viewer to get involved in their story. A not bad effort then, but it could have been so much more if it had had a more creative narrative.

juella90 I'll give it a 10 out of pity lol... It's actually quite watchable, and good fun. Don't expect any major thrills or engaging plot twists, just decent, fun, light-hearted ugly-nasty-alien-goes-around-killing-people- out-of-boredom type stuff. The worst part of the movie by far IMO (watch out, here comes the spoiler!) is the scene where they find a dead bloke chewed in half by the alien, with his guts strewn all over the floor, and in an attempt at a cheap scare typical of the genre (but doesn't quite make it), the guy turns out to be still alive! I can only handle so much stupidity in a movie, and that was the one moment in the film that really crossed that line for me! lol Anyway, decent watchable silliness.

aln0827-1 So, I watched this movie on Netflix after reading an news report that it made like $42 in the theaters and wonder why. I can now say I understand why. I would have thought it would do good since it has an actor from Doctor Who and an actor from Once Upon a Time but really, the story line was a bit old. Spoiler alert at this point. The whole idea of people trapped in a building with a creature trying to kill them has been over done. I did like some of the ways people did die but the tension between actors was so forced that I could not help but laugh. I hate to say this, but there should not be a sequel to this movie even if the movie made it out to be. I do give credit, the monster was a unique and I think the most interesting character in the whole movie. 3 out of 10 was being nice, but I have seen worse.
