Pretty decent movie.

So many great points. There was just too many things that didn't make sense or wasn't fleshed out enough for me to call this a decent movie.

One thing though, I'm not sure the girl got sick from the gas (even though she blamed the gas). I think the girl got sick from the big guy who was injected. She was near him afterwards and he breathed on her quite heavily. The odds of contagious diseases being in the concoction is just too high. Also, the green rash on her face was developing before the gassy stairwell. The poor girl was doomed from the start lol. If she didn't die from the sickness, she would have died from that alien beat down. But instead she died from the immoral scientist she was left with.

For some-one who didn't like the movie, your tautological exposition seems just a tad hypocritical.

However, in the event you weren't aware, or, are too ignorant to give a sh!t, there is an ethical and polite way to give away an entire movie!! Believe it or not, there are people out there who are yet to see the FUC*ING movie!! [<--See what I did there?!]

I noticed you've been an IMDb member for a good many years now, so either you're an ignorant, small-minded, bloody idiot or, a plain old simpleton!! For the record, I'm going with both!!

I've used your diatribe as an example on how to use a spoiler tag!! It's really not difficult at all.

 Option A: You simply click on the IMDb button marked spoiler and continue to type in the center of the two tags.
 Option B: Type whatever your spoiler is, then, highlight that same text, click the spoiler button and voila, it will insert the tags for you. 👉Yes, it really IS that easy!!  🙌

What basically happened:

- Guy is being tortured, although it's difficult to tell, and is never explained why.
- Guy is then reunited with his old team to do an extraction. It's never explained who this team is or what kind of history they have together.
- They enter a former Soviet country where some rebels are holed up.
- Girl who wears a human skull has basically no character or plot about her, yet features quite heavily at different parts of the film.
- There is an advanced medical facility below this old crumbling base, which the rebels know about but are scared of (this makes no sense).
- They have cameras of the inside of the base but do not watch them (this makes no sense).
- The only way in is apparently through a "maze" of tunnels with deadly traps and monsters in it. But surely they must deliver things like food and medical supplies down there.
- The rebels sometimes speak in English for no reason. They think it's normal when the two guys reply in English with a British accent, even though they're supposed to be Russian/Georgian.
- There are some big-eyed cave dwellers in suits who try to inject the team with old Soviet chemical weapons, which transform you into some kind of big mutant zombie. This makes no sense, either from a scientific standpoint or for the motivation of these guards.
- They just leave behind the guy who gets injected without even checking where he is. Literally nobody thinks about it or mentions it. The girl just says "hurry up" to him, and then they forget he exists.
- They have to get past some unexplained gas which only seems to affect one member of the team, but is also apparently always on. This makes no sense. Whatever it is would run out, and it would also fill up the facility eventually, rather than just affecting that one stairwell.
- A woman with the hair of an 80 year old but the face of a 20 year old is apparently working by herself in this facility, after graduating from Cambridge and then being employed by Soviets and given free reign to do what she likes. This makes no sense. She also apparently trained the big-eyed creatures to be her guards, but why would they listen to her and not just kill her? And surely they need to eat and live somewhere. Why are they wearing the suits? None of it makes sense.
- She has bred 50% alien 50% human, which look completely like humans except for the eyes and some slits on the throat. This makes no sense.
- Despite the maze and facility initially taking them half of the film to traverse, later on they just come and go from the facility into the "maze" in seconds to check on the source of a loud bang.
- They escape through an elevator which previously hadn't existed, but which is claimed was for use in an emergency. This makes no sense. They could have avoided all of the dangerous maze if they'd just used it to begin with, and they would have lost nothing by doing this and gained everything. It's a deus ex machina, which the film is full of. It's terribly written.

I thought the beginning was hilarious. They are an "elite" group of mercenaries, yet they arrive at the place in what looks like a taxi cab from Tijuana. Then give him a couple bucks, get out and stroll leisurely through the woods, wearing hoodies and looking like high school gang bangers.

Completely agree with everything you have pointed out.

Film was rubbish.
