      will g I absolutely love this movie! So underrated. Shame there wasn't a sequel, but then again most sequels don't live up to the original. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review S N Really fun. Linderman was pretty hilarious. Brooke Nevin was great. 100% would recommend. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review justin t The CGI looks a little cheap but it is effective. There's nothing too exciting too look at except for the giant bugs. Not the best mix by a long shot. Also not the worst. The bass was pretty poor and dialogue not appropriately prioritised. Then again it did the job, used the surround and was never bad. There was no story! It was just giant bugs and people trying to survive them. It wasn't that funny, they are much funnier monster movies. It starts very quickly indeed. It's pretty forgettable. The ending was very annoying. Not a brilliant film, it is just a film with giant bugs and silly gore. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member it seems pretty bad. although it seems to want to be so bad to be really campy in order to sneak u into the comfort zone to think it's actually good since it's so bad, but the comfort left already the theater and you sit there and don't know what to do with your life and life is draining away every second after you realize this. but you're ok, with the "aids" They managed to drop this thing into the goddamn gray zone which leaves you confused on why its really bad but not really good either. that zone is pretty hazardous since you never remember the items in it, yet you know it's overflooded and even a glimpse to it during your REM sleep will result with anything but happy thoughts for the opening waking hours and you might end up doing stupid decisions. i hate the gray zone Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member A trully awesome movie!!! i enjoyed it, Well made fuuny, with well made bug monsters,good acting to,story line i enjoyed it ,i simply love it :) trully finnally something awesome to watch Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member Infestation was obviously created by someone who wanted to show off their CGI prowess (which is respectable, actually) but has no clue how to make a film. It isn't just a lack of originality, either. The shots and editing are flat and devoid of art, killing any mood that should be established for a monster movie. Furthermore, Infestation is one of those movies where the plot relies on characters doing things that make no sense, so it's no surprise when they get offed, and almost a relief. Trust me: I watched this one so you don't have to. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Nikki Baughan Roll Credits Infestation is a sticky, schlocky treat. Rated: 4/5 Oct 29, 2019 Full Review Anton Bitel Projected Figures it is all carried off with a hilariously schlubbish charm, as though the fate of humanity were being left in the hands of The Office's personnel. Dec 1, 2010 Full Review James O'Ehley Sci-Fi Movie Page Infestation is an unexpectedly fun outing. Nov 30, 2009 Full Review Read all reviews
