Rating: C -- Drones is the equivalent of an issue-driven movie about the NSA featuring agents who feel really creepy about spying on people. That's not the problem. Full Review

When horror movies and history meet. And with a disturbing and discomforting persistent dread, Drones is in no way standard entertainment, nor should it be. Or as Dirty Wars doc director Jeremy Scahill solemnly observed, 'You can't surrender to a drone.' Full Review

Rating: 2.5/5 -- While Rick Rosenthal's Drones has the balls to attack the issue head on, the lack of nuance in tackling a complex issue undermines his efforts and that of a game cast. Full Review

Rating: 2/5 -- Drones is in constant combat against itself, poorly balancing searing commentary on excessive drone use and rampant stupidity. Full Review

Rating: 2.5/4 -- Taut, tense indie thriller that hurls humanity and morality against the disconnected video game style violence of drone warfare Full Review

A middling real-time thriller that chronicles a fictive crisis for two Air Force personnel, who find themselves at loggerheads when they spot an apparent terrorist thousands of miles away on surveillance video. Full Review

Product Description:

Two Air Force pilots (Matt O'Leary and Eloise Mumford) in Nevada use a UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) to probe the Afghan mountain compound of a suspected Al Qaeda terrorist -- and perhaps terminate their elusive target -- in this topical thriller from director Rick Rosenthal (HALLOWEEN II, BAD BOYS). When the mission goes unexpectedly awry, the two conflicted drone operators are forced to ask themselves whether their clandestine mission is truly crucial to the security of the American people.
