Generic sci-fi thriller...

I was not familiar with the 2023 sci-fi thriller "Ultra Red" from writer and director Michael Fredianelli as I stumbled upon it here in 2025. I have to say that I didn't exactly harbor the biggest of expectations to the movie, given it's somewhat amateurish cover, plus the fact that I am usually not overly keen on the sci-fi genre. But still, since it was a movie that I hadn't already seen, of course I opted to give the movie a fair chance.Writer Michael Fredianelli put together a rather straightforward, but somewhat generic, sci-fi thriller. Sure, it was watchable for what it was, but it was by no means an outstanding storyline.The cast in "Ultra Red" was all faces and talents that I wasn't familiar with, and that is actually something I do enjoy whenever I sit down to watch a movie, as the actors and actresses aren't associated with characters portrayed in other movies. The acting performances in the movie were certainly fair.The effects in the movie were adequate. Sure, you're not in for anything grand or extraordinary in terms of special effects or CGI, but it was adequate enough for a movie of this caliber.I am sure that diehard sci-fi fans will enjoy "Ultra Red" a lot more than I did as a casual viewer. But then again, I am not much of a sci-fi fan, truth be told.This is, however, not a movie that I will be returning to watch a second time.My rating of writer and director Michael Fredianelli's 2023 movie "Ultra Red" lands on a three out of ten stars.

The Adventures of Space Jerk and the Learn-on-the-Job Crew

Cool futuristic spaceship sets, effects, cinematography, and engaging mystery plot around a strange alien entity on Mars become heavily undermined by how aggressively smug and unlikeable the main hero comes off right from the start of the film. Even more unfortunately, things don't get any better for him as he insults his way through the rest of the film, making lewd comments to his superiors even while on his multi-billion dollar Mars walk. This would be more forgivable if he demonstrates some kind of clever ingenuity to display why everyone else must tolerate his behavior, but he seldom really exhibits any competence whatsoever. His saving grace lies in the fact that he is surrounded by a similarly dismal group of self-centered numbskulls who don't even seem to care that much about the mission, their own lives, or the lives of their coworkers once they start getting bumped off. At least things never get predictable.I did find the over-the-top lack of professionalism among the crew of an experimental United States Government funded spaceship to be an amusing commentary though on the current state of our top agencies. It may or may not have been the agenda that this film was going for, but it's the satirical bend of this movie that makes it the most worthwhile. I'm going to go ahead and give it a higher rating keeping this in mind, plus how impressive the movie looks when taking its tiny indie budget into consideration. It could easily have devolved into a silly Asylum type "sharks in space" sort of movie but never stoops to that level.Keep an eye out for some eye-popping visuals and a couple cute aliens who pop by to liven things up. The overall story reminds me a lot of the two "Naked" Star Trek episodes (once the alien object starts to infect the crew in a way that causes them to lose inhibition and... you guessed it... behave even less-professionally), but even more so of the Doctor Who episode "Planet of Evil" in that the object seems to bring an evil corrupting alien presence with it which proceeds to pare the crew down to such a degree that one wonders how the ship remains space-worthy. I was a bit disappointed that it doesn't quite come together as handily as the Doctor Who episode or even delve too deeply into alien intelligence, life, or past civilizations, only to focus on the petty internal squabbling.Also watch out for some random nudity late in the film that comes absolutely out of nowhere. Also keep in mind that there's a few over-the-top gory moments sprinkled in which may preclude younger viewers from jumping right in, unless their parents are into this sort of thing.

B-Flick at Best

Good Premises Red neck, bad real bad and way off base. Engineers smarter than you show. Smuggled alcohol wouldn't be out in the open. I've seen 18 year olds that are better at smuggling onto a Naval ship Single person going out, NEVER, NASA uses military protocols. That means unknown threat 2 person team. We are talking tear in suit DEAD.Tech working on gear, would have another person.What it shows is a movie that could be good failing do to ignorance, bad research and biases without the curtesy to find out the basic procedures/protocols I can see the attempts at humor but they don't work. Your trying to force the humor and that never works You have to maintain your foundation.NASA doesn't accept just anyone, your grease monkeys don't represent current Naval Engineering much less aviation. Cleanliness in MANDATORY For your information I have 24 years military service, worked on conventional, gas turbine, and nuclear power shipped. Have meant and known astronauts. Have lived in the Houston area and talked with those that work for NASA, since High School. I have friend that worked on the Hubble Telescope. Specialized in Computers and Communication equipment, Aviation and Warfare qualified, served on 5 US ships.Sad when the potential for a good movie is ruined bad enough that I am making my first review.
