Metal Gear Solid Philanthropy (2009)
Action/Sci Fi Not Rated
Plot
The movie is divided into three parts, the first part entitled "The Overnight Nation" is sixty-nine minutes long and follows Snake as he teams up with Philanthropy, an organization created in order to stop Metal Gears around the world. Snake (Giacomo Talamini) teams up with Elizabeth Laeken (Patrizia Liccardi) and Pierre Leclerc (Nicola Cecconi) as they attempt to find out what's really going on in "The Overnight Nation". The movie is set in 2007, taking place before or right after the first part of Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty.
Acting
Surprisingly very good, especially by the lead (who also wrote, directed and produced this fan film)
Gore
Some gunshots to the head
Sex/Nudity
None
Final Thoughts
This is a non-profit fan film that was produced on a $13,000 budget, and it has absolutely incredible, and if there ever is a maintream version of Metal Gear Solid made, it not likely to look any better, or be any more enjoyable. Though I have never played any of the video games the movie is based on, I still enjoy this movie a good deal, as the story, acting and really everything about it was very solidly made. I would defineatly recommend this movie, especially to fans of the game series.
