The Alliance started out as an entertainer and then ended as a teacher. This is what made the film so versatile because aside from watching great action scenes, it opened our eyes to the atrocious realities of society.
~Worth Watching~

Delicious
—What stood out with The Alliance was the intricate plot as it contained various layers: the cloning experiments, whistleblower tragedies, a little romance, kindness act, technological advancement, etc.
When we thought we grasped the story, another element was introduced that made us scratch our heads. We highly advise you to rewind twice or thrice and focus on every detail
—The ending was totally unexpected and took a different turn that brought all pieces together. The Alliance should definitely be converted into a feature film because we are longing for a comprehensive scenario 😀
—Michael J Patterson (playing John/Balmer) held his ship together. He gave us different personalities with Balmer and John.
Zion (Kebele Rose) was a peculiar character, quiet and secretive in a way; it was hard to figure her out, and that is the more reason why The Alliance needs to be turned into a feature film; more details, please
—The fighting choreography was exhilarating 🙂
—The radio host’s comments at the end glued all the pieces together unveiling some disturbing truths. Providing the names of real-life whistleblowers became distressful when we googled them and found out they all mysteriously died
—Great location selections!

Bland
—The Alliance was going to receive a 5-star rating if not for the weak audio and CGI effects that jeopardized the beautiful production. Moreover, the white hue of the color grading was a bit too bright
