Editorial Reviews

After 20 years of intergalactic war, humanity must make a final stand against the Ma'har invaders. Dispatched to the treacherous deserts of Gauda Prime, Lieutenant Sharp (Anderson Bradshaw) and his unit must find and destroy the enemy’s central weapon, the dreaded Ma'har dream machine. The obstacles are daunting – giant mutated creatures and an army of zombified sand troopers stand between the unit and their objective. They must thwart a devious politician (UFC™ Octagon Girl Edith Labelle) and her hideously disfigured mercenary, the Face (Lael Stellick).

3.0 out of 5 stars awesomely terrible, January 8, 2010

This review is from: Recon 2023: The Gauda Prime Conspiracy (DVD)

this is an actual review of the movie/dvd and not merely a rant based on the trailer and misguided anger over its title.
i can't break this down into pros and cons because the things that make it awful are also what make it entertaining.
1) if you watch the trailer, its evident that this movie is going to be terrible, to expect otherwise would be fairly unrealistic
2) the effects, plot, action, and acting are all amusingly bad
3) the dvd has close to no features/extras ... just some trailers for a handful of horror movies. the dvd doesnt even come with subtitles

the amazon product description is taken directly from the back of the dvd but it seems to present way more plot than the movie is able to.

this is a hokey B sci-fi movie, plain and simple. i can't imagine the people that made it took it seriously, and if you even hazard to watch it, you would probably be better served to do the same. i can't give it anything more than 3 stars, because it really is quite bad but i found its ridiculousness to be very funny. that said, i wouldnt recommend anyone actually buys this.

1.0 out of 5 stars Why can't these lame-oid programs make up their own names? "Guada Prime" is already taken, by something much better!, October 11, 2009

This review is from: Recon 2023: The Gauda Prime Conspiracy (DVD)

"Guada Prime" is the name of a planet, situated to key events for the series 4 finale of "Blake's 7". With a plot that has a heck of a lot more depth and intrigue than this cornball-and-not-in-a-good-way, childish, clichéd, videotaped, gaudy, trite, wannabe FLUFF of a "movie" - the sort that can be found in 99% of modern "sci-fi" already.

I saw the trailer and that's more than enough, never mind what else I bothered sitting through - and trust me, even sitting through the trailer is far more than enough to avoid this like the plague. Heck, the plague is vastly preferable by comparison! Worse, there's nothing anybody can do to reclaim the minutes or hours they wasted with this uninspired garbage that rips off a cool name from a totally disparate (and superior) sci-fi property.
