The Fix Ratings & Reviews
- Anthony Galindo28 februari 2026A really good gem to come out of South Africa. The story and FX were very good.
- Thomas Kearney19 januari 2026She seemed like a pretty cool new actor
- jknightmare5 januari 2026Pretty much B-Grade or C-Grade, very cringe. Looks like they tried to throw money at everything except the story and directing
- Darren Webster27 november 2024So, at first I was thinking this was one of those "made for TV movies" on par with those terrible movies made that used to play on the SyFy Channel on Friday nights, and, to a point, this is that. Low budget, yes. Clunky beginning due to a set of writers that aren't accustomed to writing about people just being people or what kids do at parties. The first part of the movie feels like it's trying to find its feet and decide what kind of movie it wants to be. Teen drama? Science Fiction? Action? Thriller? Turns out it's the last 3 things. Grace does a pretty good job of brinign Ella to life and while at first you have a tendency to dislike her, she kinda starts to grow on you. But she does make the atypical bad decision of trusting the bad guy (Sharman) who does an excellent job of being that, even if he doesn't look the part. The interesting thing about the movie is that it's trying to tell us that polluting our planet is just going to end up killing us, which, is in fact probably accurate, but it also makes you start to think of alternatives. The human race is bound and determined to stay on the path it's been on, so maybe we need to change. That's the premise of the movie ina way. The changes Ella goes through are outward in appearance, as well as inside. It's actually satisfying seeing her finally come in to her own, accept what she is becoming and embrace it, I only wish the movie had done that earlier on so we could see her in action having fully embraced her changes. It feels like an origin story for a super hero if I'm being honest, and that's not really a bad thing. I think what's fun about this is that it's a low budget take on the Species franchise, but in a less overly sexualized and violent manner. Normally a film like this I'd be like "cool, we've seen it, moving on" but I kinda want to see Ella come back to help lift up the human race and become the big hero. While special effects are mostly practical, there are a few times where it was blatantly obvious it was done with CGI. Like watching those old Million Dollar Man shows or the Incredible hulk TV show. I can't help but wonder what would have happened if they'd had a million to play with for special effects? That alone could have easily lifted this out of the SyFy Friday night movie realm and into the "why wasn't this in a theater" realm. Audio is pretty good too. There are a few times where it was a bit rough to understand what a few people were saying, but there's enough others around that you can kinda get the jist of what they said. Music wise, again, low budget. They licensed some bigger name music, pretty sure there was some Evanescence in there, but most of it was generally pretty generic and run of the mill. Again, I'm left wondering, what would have been if they had a bigger budget? Overall, yeah, this isn't a terrible waste of an hour and a half.
- Yahdanevan Hunter2 mei 2025Unexpected masterpiece. I need part II!!
- DJ24 december 2025Actually quite good! Left me wondering if there was a book series or more movies planned.
- 6xyts1 mei 2025I was entertained.
- Robert Pryor29 april 2025poor dialog and music that overpowers scenes , adding a false sense of intensity to underwhelming moments. The last quarter of the movie seemed rushed.
- cesarmazariegos74723 mei 2025Dialogue was totally out of character. The actors made the movie look and sound unappealing.
- Arniox7 december 2025I really liked this movie. I'm a huge fan of body horror that leads into scifi cool powers or etc. A bit like Lucy, or Splice, District 9, or etc. This hit all my sweet spots for a good good vs bad, body horror, magical drug makes super powers, and well done characters. The only negative I felt about the movie was some of the dialogue. It felt fake, or forced. And the sound design of this movie also somehow weirdly made the dialogue not sound like it was actually filmed on set? But the acting made up for it and it felt ok.
- Myk6830 oktober 2025I liked it. Really good pace and story
- Kenn Wildes13 september 2025Low budget, random silly ideas, crappy dialogue, gosh cmon guys. Feels like they were trying to make a joke out of a potentially viable idea.
- Andrew Clout4 juli 2025Premise of the movie good….execution was poor.
- Peggy Long10 juni 2025Excellent movie
- Драгомир Сотиров17 mei 2025interesting movie
