Admittedly, in director/star Noel Clarke's low-budget sci-fi actioner, the acting and script do provoke surprise: both are so bad, you find yourself wondering if what's unfolding is some kind of parody.
July 05, 2014
A smug, risible and far-from-anomalous attempt to beat Hollywood at its own game, from a talent whose commendable reach continues to exceed his grasp.

One day the world will find out what Noel Clarke has on Universal Pictures and it's going to change the film industry forever.
July 04, 2014
Saddled with unsayable dialogue and variable special effects, it's a corny and hackneyed film with ideas well above its station, that underwhelms from the start.

Following the Roger Corman exploitation rule book to the letter, The Anomaly wrings maximum bangs for bucks from its tight budget while unashamedly showcasing the director's buff assets.

There's infinitely more than one anomaly to be found in "The Anomaly," a thoroughly nonsensical futuristic sci-fi thriller that makes a case for the perils of vanity projects.

Has Noel Clarke directed this baffling, unconvincing sci-fi just to show the world his chiselled, rock-hard pecs?
July 04, 2014
Best described as a noble failure.
July 03, 2014
Hilariously naff science-fiction mularkey that appears to have been cobbled together like Frankenstein's monster from the discarded body parts of Total Recall, The Matrix, Source Code and countless others.
July 11, 2014
It's a nifty idea - especially in terms of structure - but that's about it, with Clarke's direction proving as flat as his performance.
July 04, 2014
The Anomaly has all the ingredients of a winning formula, in the wrong measures.
October 28, 2014
Noel Clarke never shuns an opportunity to show off his buff body but displays little of the intelligence or flair needed to pull off his film's mind-stretching conceits.
