Storage 24 Movie Reviews
A cheeky little number
We all know that Alien was ‘the daddy’ when it comes to these sorts of ‘monster-munching’ movies. You have your alien/mutant/werewolf/whatever, chasing around a load of humans who are trapped in a spaceship/laboratory/missile silo/whatever, until the humans are suitably depleted enough to luckily beat the beast.
Storage 24 conforms to this template. My question: so what? I read once on the internet, when someone was comparing George Lucas’ (commercially unsuccessful) ‘Willow’ to the (critically-acclaimed and money-spinning) Lord of the Rings franchise, they said: Obviously Lord of the Rings is a better film, but is it fun? Storage 24 is not a classic film. But, in my opinion, it IS fun.
It never takes itself too seriously. The characters are just about well-formed enough to be enjoyable and the monster is suitably horrible. Therefore, it pretty much has everything you can want when you’re picking a monster-munching movie to eat popcorn to.
If you want something deep, classy and serious – go elsewhere. Suspend your disbelief… and enjoy.
NOTE: if there was an Oscar for ‘best use of yapping dog toy,’ Storage 24 would win hands down. And probably again the next year, too.
An alien love triangle……
A plane crashes in London, and the cargo ends up in a storage warehouse, and it just happens that Noel Clarke has just split up from his girlfriend, who is sorting out her stuff from his stuff, and then there is the confrontation between them at the titular place.
While all the while there is an alien stalking the corridors, killing all the Brit bit part actors you recognise from other films. Like the bloke from the Business, and that woman from Fever Pitch.
Clarke is a great screen presence, but even though the film is nothing revelatory or new, Clarke puts in a performance that isn’t menacing or familiar. Basically he’s not playing the same character like he usually does, ala Kidulthood.
It’s clear from the upstart who will survive and who will die, and when the little twist arrives at the beginning of the third act, some characters should just sign a death warrant.
You have the best friend who stabs you I the back, and then thinks about saving his own bacon, the obnoxious friend who is just rude, the random nutter who lives in the warehouse, and of course, the nobody who works there.
All fodder for the alien, but the character arcs really take the tension away from the film.
But like I’ve said, its a fun little low budget British movie, that never outstays its welcome, and looks good.
Slight case of deja vu…
Lots of people get trapped in a building, with an alien beast on the loose. One of them has just broken up with his girlfriend. She’s also stuck in there, along with the guy’s best friend, who she was having an affair with. TENSION!! There’s also an eccentric gentleman in an ugly dressing gown who might as well be followed by a huge neon sign which says COMEDY RELIEF, A gruff engineer trying to fix the strange power cuts which have been going on and off all day (guess what happens to him) and some others who can charitably be described as ‘cannon fodder’.
Basically, this is a creature feature, the sort they’ve made for donkeys years… albeit a British one. The chases down narrow tunnels, the sight of disembodied limbs and torsos scattered about, even the fiend itself… are ‘borrowed’ from a million other movies… most specifically, a certain series starring Sigourney Weaver. This doesn’t make it a bad film per se, but it’s not one to fire up the imagination in any way (HEY THAT RHYMES!!). It provides a few cheap thrills, but you probably won’t recall it a week from now. Or indeed, the next time you go to the bathroom. 5/10
