Ben
Meyers’ rating: 3.7|5.0 Starsììì
Cosmic Sin starts as a bona fide 4.1|5.0-Star film then slowly dissolves to a 3.7|5.0-Star
film. When realization sets in that the movie is ending, the audience is left
with the sinking feeling that they just watched a short story that was
artificially expanded into an 88-minute watch. There is no sated feeling that
entertainment value has been served on a full plate. There are holes in the
plot. This movie needs to flesh out its
characters and provide good reasons for mass killing, if there could ever be a
reason for this military exercise.

Storyline
This science fiction action film is about a man who earns a dishonorable military discharge
for dropping a Q-bomb that kills 70 million people. He is later offered a
pardon if he will take on an exceptionally dangerous mission.
Additional Thanks
Thank you to Director
Edward Drake for directing effort. Thank you to Producer Corey Large for making
the film possible. Cast includes: Bruce Willis, Frank Grillo, Brandon Lee,
Corey Large, Perrey Reeves, C.J. Perry, Lochlyn Munro, and Costas Mandylor.
Buy a ticket? Yes? No? Maybe?
Maybe. The story is good to
some extent but be aware that what you purchase is a short story expanded to
approximately 90 minutes. The story is oddly formulated with not much happening
and does not represent the usual style of Bruce Willis. The audience may throw
their hands up in despair and ask, Why?
