Without giving too much away, I have to say that Forward Unto Dawn has the feel of a scene-setting film. Once I realised this and that they were in training, not fighting real baddies, then I settled down into the film. When I first started the film and saw what looked like kids running through a forest, I thought, ‘that’s not very convincing, they look like children.’ That’s because they are. The action centres around a group of soldier cadets at their training base somewhere in the galaxy. For the devoted fans out there, there are some excellent bits later on that I won’t spoil now. The weapons, the Warthog and many other things are spot on. What this means is that I have a pretty good idea of what the Halo universe looks like and I have to say that in Forward Unto Dawn the director has done a pretty good job of matching that.

Having said that I have played a fair amount of the various versions from the original on the Xbox, right up to Halo 4 on the Xbox 360. However, I never really hit it off with the game. I’m not sure quite why, it’s a shooter, which I like, it’s sci-fi, which I like. When it comes to video games, I’ve never been that much of a fan of Halo. Forward Unto Dawn though is set in the world of Halo and is actually not a bad thing. When it comes to films based on video games, I usually give them a wider berth than a plague victim who is about to sneeze.
