3/4

A simmering, on-target drama involving a visiting Pakistani businessman whose motive and briefcase are both suspicious.

3.5/4

A suspenseful and satisfying thriller that forces the audience out of its complacency to confront some painful truths about the toll of conflict.

Utterly dull thriller "Drone" tries to raise ethical and moral questions about modern warfare, but the audience can only dwell on the illogical plot and unsympathetic characters - if they can engage at all.

Goes off on a few too many tangents, but its core theme comes through by the time the credits roll. Whether its worth waiting for it to hit though is a different story.

Drone suffers from limited range and a greatly reduced payload.

1/5

It's a paper-thin thriller that positions itself as a movie about the consequences of drone warfare, but it's really just a threadbare domestic drama with delusions of contemporary relevance.

This film is good filler time in the plane maybe. It tries to poke at our fears and racism.

For a right action, given a wrong message! Another terrorism sympathiser film. This is a second film to I watch which highlighted evil wins over good. That too coming from a nation like Canada is a bad example. The other film was 'The Wall'. There should be no mercy on terrorism and pisslam. If the characters, geographically altered to another continent, then it would have been a nice thriller with a message. The tagline was worst. You can't choose wisely, because there's no good terrorism and bad terrorism. Anyhow, Seasn Bean was good. Except the opening, it is a one day event film and most of the film take place in a house. The film was one sided perspective. Hence it gave a wrong message! I don't know why some filmmaker set to give people wrong information. It's only nurturing evil over good. This film could set a box office record in the middle-east, but not in the good part of the world. Easily a skippable film of the year, decade and forever. 1/10

Sad, tedious, edgy & awkward little confrontation of a CiA mercenary contractor with the collateral damage of their prey.

Slow, boring, and completely predictable. Drone wastes a good cast on a lame story.
