Lunopolis Audience Reviews

Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined
Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
Roy Hart If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.
Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Cayo Hern I know I can watch this for free on HULU...and pay for a download on Amazon....but WHY doesn't IMDb list if it's available on DVD? I think this site was purchased by Amazon and if there was any place you would think they would advertise the fact that there was a DVD available, it would be here.....BUT NO...they only list the download for this and many other films. Most disappointing as they try to get more people into renting rather than purchasing the films. I guess there's more $$ in it if they can control access more easily. Is this the future of watching films at home? I see the same thing happening with music where CD sales are almost incidental now compared to purchasing individual songs for your IPhones, etc is the dominant way most people collect their music these days.....As a result, the quality of albums tends to drop and in the future, there will probably be fewer movies available with such special features as commentaries by the actors and director....Most disheartening!
jet66 Though the last thing the world needs is another documentary-style piece of science fiction, this one is at least stylistically interesting, and doesn't follow the Blair-Witch-found-footage formula by rote. Which is not to say it follows a coherent plot, because this has to be one of the most confusing premises ever to emerge from a script-writers drug-addled mind. Layers of nonsense science are whipped into a frothy, illogical conspiracy story that's entertaining, so long as you don't try to make sense of the mystery, much less the contrived notions of cause and effect. On the plus side, the acting is mostly top-notch, and the photography and editing would make a really artful documentary, in the real world. Also, the obvious parody of Scientology - the "Church of Lunology"- includes some wry equivalents to L. Ron Hubbard and David Miscavige.All in all, it could have been a much better movie.
John Johnson After about 40 minutes of waiting for the plot to kick in, I finally gave up and started fast forwarding. I'm always interested in newcomers and outsiders, and while they made a lot of good choices and did some decent work, I couldn't suspend my disbelief for more than about a minute at a time. The acting was pretty decent, (one guy even did a Bruce Willis imitation -- it had never occurred to me that was even possible) but there was too much going on in the story and I couldn't connect to the characters. A lunar civilization conspiracy, an odd religion, time travel, green crystals, the Mayan calendar. On and on. Turns out Elvis, Ben Franklin and Plato were time travelers, to name a few. I kept getting bounced out of the narrative on stuff like that. I just couldn't get into it. Showed promise, though. The initial shots of exploring the swamp were pretty vivid. I encourage them to keep working at film. I think a script doctor could have solved 80% of the problems up front.
md-94 Lunopolis must be seen.There are very few films that re-define a genre, or re-design one at least. But Mathew Avant accomplishes this feat with his instant science fiction documentary classic, Lunopolis.Lunopolis fuses SCI-Fi with conspiracy, re-launching mockumentary style with an original twist of institutional authenticity.Put simply: Lunoplois introduces facts that MAY be fictitious, but offers factual proof for those facts... fictitiously.You have to see it to believe it: Two filmmakers find a strange lair, a cool 60's retro device, and an unlikely Polaroid picture. But what they really find is a well-written, and incredibly well-conceived answer to life, the universe, and everything.Mark my words. Lunopolis is a delightful mindblow and will be talked about for years to come.
