Boring. Drab color scheme. Awful CGI. Terrible dialog and script. Acting is as good as the dialog. With so many decent movies to make, why make 3 when the first "remake" was at least decent. This is amateurish and insulting. A waste of time and money. Do better. I finish everything. I did not finish this. It broke my stride.

What it gains in a slight improvement in style & execution over its predecessors, it loses by continuing the trilogy's tradition of a confounding script with boring dialogue, dim-witted performances, cheap VFX, & mundane direction. #nitrosMovieChallenge.

Whoever did this: quit cinema. It's not interesting on any level. It even makes me doubt which film is worse: the previous or this one.

I actually enjoyed this third outing of the Pulse trilogy. But well... it is still a bad movie. First off we get to see a couple in love via internet. He's American, she is Egyptian and they have cyberlove for over 10 months. She gets infected and kills herself off. He is in shock. Fast forward seven year and we get to hook up again with Justine (the youngling from part 2), who has now turned into a rebellious teen in a Amish society. Taken over by foster parents she isn't satisfied with the life she has. By chance she find an old decrepit laptop stowed away in a car. She unwittingly takes a risk and turns on the little death machine. After which she is instantly attacked by... a chat-room. There she meets Adam, who apparently lives in town (Houston to be exact) and invites her over to visit. Naturally she takes a trip by foot to meet the mysterious internet lover... Not all is bad with this movie. Yes, some of the acting is off, but in general the action is good and after a while you get used to the crappy blue screen. If you take it at face value you might actually enjoy yourself, as there are a couple of really worthwhile sequences with the opening segment a standout. Additionally there are a couple of interesting ideas, like causing pain to spectres via ultrared light or the whole house in the prairie motive. But if you put any thought into the movie it just doesn't make any sense. In the end it turns out that Justine's whole trip was pointless and gives nothing to the story. Additionally we are to believe that it took the army seven years to coordinate a global nuclear EMP attack (what does that say about the army?). Not to mention cell-phones that have power after seven years of laying around in the dirt (Nokia eat your heart out!). All in all I strongly doubt that after the prolonged period of lack of power sources (with no-one to run the power plants electricity would be down in a matter of days, save for maybe nuclear facilities), maintenance and so on anything electromagnetic would be working after seven years. Basically the whole premise stinks of crappy writing and zero afterthought as it really doesn't make much sense. Generally if you were involved by the previous two parts you can watch this to get some sort of closure. But don't expect much (in any department, especially special effects) and you may just have a good time.

Pulse 2 was no feat in cinematic history. This achieves even less. Yes, watching the 2 Pulse movies back to back was a struggle, but I managed to garner up the energy and ambition to do so. Desire was lacking after 15 minutes into this movie due to horrible dialog, plot less story, lousy effects, crappy performances and just basically it being even worse then the previous. How can that be? How can an already boring story get worse? I don't know...there are some things I can't explain - just like the writer of this movie...there's so much left unexplained because there simply is no plot or point to the movie. It's bad and there are not too many movies that fall into the area of just downright lousy, but this one succeeds to do so well at it. The entire series actually...and to think there was actually paper wasted on the printing of the script...trees devoid of their life on earth to be cruelly cut down, shredded up into pulp to form a thin film which would be bonded to form a substance called "paper" and that paper would be used for printing this script on. Yes, just as this comment is really lousy and pretty much boring and pointless, it is just a reminder of the total direction of the movie. If you want a scary movie script - avoid the ones written by preschoolers. Tey have yet to learn to spell. Another waste of time, talent and money...well OK...not talent.

Have you ever watched a teen-girl drama TV show where the cute blonde stuck-up preppy princess-turned-anti-conformist gets rejected by her family because of her choice of boyfriend and then rebels against society and everything else? Oh, they don't make shows like that? Thank God. Too bad it slipped through in the theatres. Pulse 3 is like watching Gossip Girl put in a blender with The Matrix and Saw, except it's infinitely more painful. I went between the emotions of: boredom, disgust, hatred and checking to make sure I hadn't nodded off. Yes I know that's not an emotion, but it happened to me repeatedly during this tragedy so I thought it was worth a mention. What kind of movie provides you with a number of camera angles of a woman blowing her head off with a shotgun in grisly detail? THIS ONE!!! I'd like to think that scene served some kind of purpose, but I'll leave it at that. I'd also like to think that one's imagination serves some sort of purpose, but this film won't let me have it. The film seemed to be going somewhere, until the girl runs away, then it's just a scantily-clad drama queen screaming at the top of her lungs because her internet boyfriend won't txt her back. After about the half-hour mark you may as well shut it off. That's where the philosophy turns into fluff. A huge build-up to nothing. Don't waste your time.

Trailer—Pulse 3

How did pulse even get a sequel, how did pulse 2 get a sequel? The acting is horrific, the green screen is even worse, over used, and the story is so dumbbb. I actually liked the first film, had some good acting and decent sceenes, but this! Its not even one of them where its so bad its good, the main actress, who cannot act at all makes it really cringey, and the pointless plot about adam, what is the point of going to find this guy then she finds out hes a bell of the end and then like 10 mins later the film ends, its so pointless, its mainly about a girl who is a rebel and shes almost ends the world again but then becomes its saviour and acts all tough, its so laughable and all over the place, i cant believe i watched the whole thing, i was playing ARK at the same time though lol but i kept thinking WTH, the only thing unique about this film is why it was released, they actually wasted money to make this film. I hope i save peoples precious time, this review has mild spoilers but this film should be erased from history, and the one before it but this one is way worse.
