I just saw this film.


This film is horrible,and made by a very low budget I guess.I watched Plan 9 from Outer Space couple days ago, and this film can compare to that,so you can image how terrible this film is.I gave up after I watched half an hour.

thanks for warning me I was about to watch this.

The movie you saw was not "The Portal" (2009), but was "Portal" (2008).

reply

So which movie is bad 2008 version or 2009?

reply

"Portal" (2008) is the movie that shescheating is talking about. "The Portal" (2009) is not out yet. Someone ripped "Portal" and attached "The Portal" artwork and cast list.

reply

ok thanks for clearing that up, i will wait for this movie.

reply

No the OP is correct.

You can view the trailer on YouTube. It looks terrible. Same cast, same story as described. So it's the same movie.

reply

no its not, its the wrong movie, saying their is a trailer on youtube proves nothing.

reply

What shescheating describes certainly fits this pile of garbage starring Stacy Keach, Michael Madsen and Roddy Piper, in fact "Plan 9 from outer space" looks like a Shakespearian play in comparison to this waste of celluloid...

Jumping in years later but, as bad as The Portal is, Portal is a hundred times worse.
Anyone reading this, avoid both. If you're part of some cruel ethical dilemma experiment and must watch one, choose this one.

How can you comment if you only watched 30 minutes of the film?

I'll never understand how you can say a film is rubbish if you've not even watched it?

"How can you comment if you only watched 30 minutes of the film? "

Do you need to fully immerse yourself into a bath of boiling water before you decide that it is too hot or is dipping your toe in enough?

"I'll never understand how you can say a film is rubbish if you've not even watched it?"

I suspect there are a great many things you are incapable of understanding including how someone can watch 30 minutes of bad acting, bad scripting, bad effects, bad plot and stupid storyline and know that it will not get any better (Confirmed on fast forwarding the garbage)...

This is not out yet. You saw Portal 2008. There is a film out on the internet called, wrongly, The Portal, but it stars Chris Conrad. This proves it is Portal 2008, not The Portal 2009. You dont have to see more that 15 seconds to know this.
