Peereddi I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

Hadrina The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Scotty Burke It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

adonis98-743-186503 When a Texas military force invades their Brooklyn neighborhood, 20-year-old Lucy and war veteran Stupe must depend on each other to survive. I was expecting a bit more effort from 'Bushwick' especially with 2 pretty solid leads such as Brittany Snow and Dave Bautista but both of them are wasted in this low budget and cheesy sci-fi apocalypse flick where neither of the 2 are actually shining at all plus who was the stupid person that casted Snow as a 20 years old girl? She is way older than that. Please do not waste your time with this. (0/10)

spiritchaser-74074 This is one of the stupidest, if not THE stupidest, movie I have ever seen. I'm willing to suspend reality but only to a certain point. This movie is so unbelievable. it's laughable.

Wizard-8 I sat down to watch this movie on Netflix without knowing anything about it except for the few words the description on Netflix listed. I often do that, sometimes being pleasantly surprised by what I get to see, and that's how I felt about this particular movie. It is definitely not a perfect movie, and you'll see some big flaws right in the middle of watching it. For starters, it's a little odd that the loyal U.S. military forces would not arrive and start fighting back a lot sooner than they do. (You would think that they would at least send some air support fairly quickly.) Also, the protagonists have ample opportunity to take the weapons and gear of the fallen enemy combatants, but they only do this ONCE in the entire running time. And the very ending of the movie (which I won't reveal) is for the most part very disappointing, leaving many viewers to think they are being cheated in some way.But fortunately, the movie does work for the most part. It's a very skillfully directed exercise, being that it's directed in a "real" time fashion, with seemingly very few clear edits. Instead, the movie plays out almost like one uninterrupted shot (though if you look real carefully, you will see where there are edits from one shot to another.) The movie also has a feel of authenticity, coming across as a more realistic treatment of the premise than you might think. The action and suspense scenes are also well done, containing a lot of excitement. If you are prepared to overlook those aforementioned (and other) flaws, the movie does manage to be effective enough to make it worth a look during a slow day.

Leofwine_draca As a huge fan of action movies, I read about BUSHWICK and was entranced. It's a low budget, gritty, real-time thriller set on the mean streets of New York which is in the process of being invaded by a military force operating out of Texas. It turns out that a bunch of redneck states are wishing to break off from the US and invading those wanting to stay. The film follows a couple of characters, the great Dave Bautista and an annoying sweary blonde girl, as they navigate streets and buildings and attempt to survive. It's supposed to be shot in a single take and the roving camerawork is a real asset, although there are many cuts hidden by sweeps and CGI. The characterisation isn't very good and the bits where the leads settle down to chat inside buildings are quite dull; the worst character is the druggie who is a real irritant. However, the shooting and fight scenes have really fluid choreography that works nicely and are as good as, if not better, than those seen in many a big budget Hollywood blockbuster.
