I thought the special effects were pretty good, There really wusn't much.

There wasn't much in the way of fight scenes. Now I confess I stopped watching after about 50 minutes. If a movie has nothing but fight scenes or even a LOT I usually don't watch em, but this movie for me just got boring going the other direction.

I thought the acting was pretty good, i thought the special affects, the little there were, was pretty good, it was just boring. It was definitely low budget with most the scenes occurring in backyards or warehouse areas and low end offices and such Anyway, thats my two bits.

If ASYLUM is trying to become the western sci-fi pinnacle, of ridiculous fantasy films, to take top place away from the Japanese studios they are wasting their time! It took Japan 30 years plus of making the likes of Godzilla films to firmly cement top position in Creature feature action sci-fi.

The main letdown of this debacle was the little screen time of any actual fight scenes between the subjects of the films title. They actually only fight twice on screen and both for very short times and, the choreography of the scenes was ludicrous. The Gatling arm mounted machine gun, that Mecha Ape uses, would have ripped Abe (the apes name) to shreds; no matter that he was 45 feet high in size.

Sharknado, for me, is the worst of the production releases from the ASYLUM studios but, this is a very, very, very close second!

There is way too much ridiculousness about this film for me to include in this review. If you really, really must see how bad it is then, you are going to have to watch it!

The 2 Ape models do look very good however. They are not up to the high standards of the latest King Kong and Godzilla special FX though.

Ape vs Mecha Ape is yet another masterpiece from the Global Asylum team. The military makes a giant killer "Mecha" Ape in order to defend against a giant REAL ape but things go wrong and the russinas (I think) hack the robo-ape and turn it against them. So, they have to release the real giant ape to fight against their own giant robot ape. This has all the standard cheesy Asylum tropes. Their visual effects have been getting better over the last few years, but it varies from shot to shot. Tom Arnold is the only "star" I recognized in this one. I give this a solid 6 stars. It is no Sharknado, but it's pretty good for a movie in this genre.
