Needless to say that I hadn't heard about this 2016 action sci-fi movie titled "Science Fiction Volume One: The Osiris Child" prior to sitting down and watching it. But then again, given my general lack of interest in most things sci-fi, then I can't claim that I have been looking up sci-fi movies. I happened to stumble upon this movie by random chance here in 2024 and opted to sit down and watch it.
I have to say that I wasn't really harboring much of any expectations, because I virtually didn't know what I was in for here. But in a sense, then writers Shane Abbess and Brian Cachia, with the former also directing the movie, had every opportunity to entertain me and impress me with this movie.
The storyline was a bit forgettable. Sure, it made for an adequate enough viewing experience, I suppose. But I can't claim to be impressed with the narrative, because it was a bit bland. But I am sure that diehard sci-fi fans would be enjoying this movie way more than I did.
I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie, aside from Temuera Morrison. The acting performances were actually fair throughout the course of the movie, making it all the more bearable to sit through.
Visually then I will say that the CGI effects were good. And with this being an action sci-fi movie, then having proper and believable CGI effects is a make or break deal. Luckily, the CGI was good in the movie, and added to the overall enjoyment of the entire movie.
While I did manage to sit through "Science Fiction Volume One: The Osiris Child" in its entire 95 minute runtime, I can honestly say that I am never returning to watch it a second time. The movie's cover oversold the movie by a mile.
My rating of director Shane Abbess's 2016 movie "Science Fiction Volume One: The Osiris Child" lands on a five out of ten stars.
