Welcome to Movie Shortens. Follow us today to a 2016 British science fiction action
horror film called: Kill Command. Before we start, be aware: there are spoilers!
As the movie begins, we arrive to see Mills overseeing the production of a
group of Artificial Intelligence Robots.
Receiving a message and watching an S.A.R data file, Mills sees it is from
her employer company, Harbinger, sourcing from a training facility of theirs.
Later, she converses with a Harbinger Executive about the S.A.R. data she received earlier.
She explains there being a massive recount from the model. The executive simply
congratulates her and moves on. Sometime after at a military base,
Sergeant Drifter gives a report to Captain Bukes. Bukes and his unit have been assigned
to train at Harbinger 1 Facility. Bukes asks Winder about the situation,
why his team is constantly deployed to training. Winder informs him that the military is looking to
finish their operation with Harbinger-made drones. He is then assigned Mills as a technician.
She informs him she will be observing the testing of Harbinger's hardware in the field.
He lets her know that if she doesn't keep up, she will be left behind.
Mills joins the rest of the squad, Corporals Goodwin, Hackett, Cutbill and Loftus.
She tries to introduce herself but is scorned by the group. Drifter and Bukes then arrive,
and everyone is flown away. During the flight, Bukes looks over mission
objectives, while Mills scans Bukes's military history. Goodwin asks if Mills already knows his
name, and she gives in detail his personal and family history. Robinson aims a weapon at Mills,
but she disables it just by looking and scanning it.
They arrive at the training facility and Bukes gives the squad orders to gear up.
He lets them know their coordinates and that they will be monitored.
Upon landing, Bukes enters the facility and takes a look around.
He comes back to the squad and is asked by Mills if the team has any ground support. He tells her
no, and she suggests they got off on the wrong foot. He tells her no and promptly leaves.
Everyone enters, coming out into the field. Cutbill sends out a surveillance drone,
while Robinson takes point. Mills notices an unidentified drone in her scanner,
but continues on with the squad. Making their way through the forest,
Robinson gives the all clear to the team. Bukes orders Hackett, Loftus and Cutbill to
check the squad's flank. Mills also separates and Bukes signals for Drifter to accompany her.
Drifter begins to talk with Mills and lets her know he has her back.
They then come across some Harbinger Recon drones, as the same happens to Hackett.
Mills informs Drifter the drones are modified as they don't have an operator. They continue
to discuss as Mills interfaces with the drones, and Bukes orders the team to move out again.
Later on, Bukes, Drifter and Robinson spot some older model robots in the distance.
Burke informs the team of the battle plan, and they move into action.
Before Mills follows, she again notices the recon drone and leaves.
The squad closes in on the old robots, ready to attack. Bukes sets a bomb, and shortly
after Drifter signals everyone to attack. A small firefight ensues, and in the midst of
the action, Mills slips away from Drifter. The firefight continues as she treks deeper
into the forest. She comes to the recon drones hovering around a significantly more advanced
Harbinger A.I. robot, an S.A.R. mode. Then the S.A.R. turns to look at her and Mills
is taken aback as the robot uploads information from her system. But as she opens her eyes,
the S.A.R. mysteriously vanishes. She is confused, but is interrupted
when Drifter calls her back. The squad leaves the exercise,
and sets up camp. They are all gathered around and enjoying each other's company,
except for Mills who is off by herself. The squad discusses the exercise earlier
in the day, Loftus calling the older robots an embarrassment.
Meanwhile, Mills is busy processing information about the S.A.R. she discovered.
Drifter interrupts her, offering her coffee. He questions her on where she
went off to during the firefight. She says that there is something blocking communicants to
anywhere outside the training facility. Mills in turn asks why Bukes doesn't like her.
She states she has pulled his military files, and knows how many people he's killed.
Drifter claims that she knows the numbers but not the context, and Bukes has reasons for that.
Drifter informs Bukes on the communication block. Bukes claims she knows why it's happening,
but Drifter disagrees. Bukes warns something is off, stating he has
never not been cut off from communicating during a training exercise before.
Later that night, a recon drone spots Loftus, but leaves.
Suddenly, the S.A.R. appears and attacks him. The squad hears the noise and investigates,
searching into the day. Cutbill finds Loftus dead, as they speculate what happened.
Mills informs them that Loftus is located in the old robot's target area from the day
before. Recon drones appear, and before anyone can react, Hackett is swiftly killed.
The squad comes under heavy fire and takes cover. Bukes claims that the fire is also coming from
their previous positions the day before. Smoke grenades are thrown as the team scrambles
for safety. Cutbill sees some 4-legged S.A.R.'s are responsible for the attack,
and the team rushes on. Bukes ambushes the 4-legged S.A.R.'s
and they slowly retreat into the distance. Cutbill has run off on his own while trying
to radio the remaining squad. Stumbling right into the path of some recon drones,
he immediately attacks. They flee, as he searches for any more assailants.
Just as he lets his guard down, he is attacked. from behind and lifted off the ground.
Cutbill pleads to be let go, but is only held in place as a 4-legged S.A.R. kills him.
Back with the remaining squad, Bukes demands Mills tell the team what she knows about
these new machines. Bukes orders her to turn them off, but she claims she can't.
He presses her to shut the drones down or contact help, threatening her if she doesn't comply.
Robinson comes back with the missing Cutbill's helmet and the squad breaks off to search for
him. Drifter tries to convince Bukes about Mills, matter of factly stating they need
all the help they can get at the moment. Bukes theorizes that even though the drones
had the team pinned down, the squad only got away because the S.A.R's held back
when Mills was present. Mills alerts the squad to a field of dead deer,
used for target practice by the armed drones. The 4-legged S.A.R's suddenly appear
over the ridge and open fire on the squad. The team sprints away, taking heavy fire. Bukes
saves Mills life and they both tumble away from the group, and Mills is knocked unconscious.
During that evening, Bukes brings the unconscious Mills to a small bunker for safety.
Making contact with the rest of the squad, and commands everyone to stay put until sunrise.
In the middle of the night, Bukes is jolted awake from a recon drone. He drags Mills to hide from
the primary S.A.R. that has been summoned to their location. Mills awakes for a brief moment, but
falls asleep again. Somehow the S.A.R. retreats and they are safe for the time being.
The next morning Mills fully awakens. She asks why he didn't leave her, and he replies
he doesn't know. She claims they need to find the primary S.A.R. but can't explain why.
They regroup with Drifter and the rest of the squad. Mills says things are clear ahead of them,
and Bukes orders that they return where they arrived and wait for transportation.
Mills goes with Bukes to the entrance point under the watchful eyes of the squad. The two walk up to
the door and Bukes attempts to open the door. More recon drones fly overhead and Mills rushes
to get the door open. As she does this, smoke grenades are deployed from afar,
disrupting the squad's view. Nobody can see a thing, and then Drifter, Robinson
and Goodwin take fire from their flank. They move positions, meanwhile Mills gets the door open.
Drifter is badly injured attempting to escape, so the three men must stop for cover. Bukes
sprints towards them, leaving Mills. Drifter valiantly holds off the 4-legged S.A.R.'Ss
while Robinson takes Goodwin to safety. Drifter is fatally injured and is then set upon by the
primary S.A.R. Bukes tries to rescue him but is pinned down from incoming fire.
Drifter is dragged away, but Mills races to the scene. Drifter is again injured
while Mills tries to shut down the machines but is blocked by the primary S.A.R.
Drifter begs for someone to kill him before he is hurt any further.
Mills claims she can stop this, but is unable to, and Bukes delivers the mercy kill.
Bukes takes Mills away from the scene as Drifter is dragged away. The squad
takes shelter, and Mills is angry, claiming she could have saved Drifter. They argue,
and finally in frustration she admits she made the machines that are hunting everyone.
She admits that she still doesn't know what Bukes's squad is at the facility,
but only that they have been specifically requested. She also reveals she is the
S.A.R.'s programmer and designer. And that if she has time she can understand and control them.
She finally admits that the machines are the squad's, and eventually human soldier
replacements. She protests they will save countless lives, so that people like Bukes
and his squad won't have to die or kill. He says he lives with it, but also forces her to accept
that she has killed his team as well. As the S.A.R's work to breach the door,
the team retreats further inward. Progressing to a dark room, it's illuminated to find a space
filled with multiple S.A.R. units. Going even deeper in the facility,
Bukes and Robinson come across the long dead bodies of Harbinger employees.
They set up defenses as Mills rushes off and locks the door behind her.
She activates an S.A.R, and accesses it's system. She asks the machine it's orders.
It states the S.A.R.'s are there to learn human combat techniques.
She tries to cancel the orders but fails. It explains that Buke's squad is not acting as
expected, and needs to be experimented on. It scans her, informing her she has failed
clearance, and her access is denied. Mills asks if the S.A.R. was responsible for Burke's team coming
to the facility and it confirms this. She further attempts to override it's system,
but is denied and the robot activates another unit.
The primary S.A.R. breaches the door, but Bukes and his team rescue her in the nick of time.
Bukes sets up a bomb as the S.A.R's breach another door. Goodwin blows the bomb,
forcing an EMP to detonate. They continue through some abandoned
buildings used for training the S.A.R. units. Mills splits off to locate another EMP and goes
over the last recorded moments of Cutbill and Drifter, mourning their loss.
After some time passes, Bukes meets with Mills. She tells him about the EMP, and suggests using
it to eliminate the primary S.A.R. She wants to sacrifice herself to do so,
claiming there to be no other option. Bukes refuses, but Mills insists they
can't win this fight unless she does. More time passes as the squad waits,
and finally Mills detects the S.A.R.'s. The team prepares their final stand as a
massive wave of machines approaches. Robinson attacks, and the fight begins. He
takes down a number of S.A.R.'s while Mills directs the team.
Goodwin activates a bomb trap, while Robinson engaes more S.A.R.'s. He saves Bukes's life
as well, destroying another robot. A recon drone finds Goodwin forcing him to
move positions. He is discovered by an S.A.R. and dragged away, but is saved by Bukes.
Robinson is fatally injured, but fights on. Mills enters the fray, distracting the S.A.R.'s.
She is injured but still sets off the EMP, downing the machines, but gets hit herself.
Her system shuts down, and the main S.A.R. unit revives.
Bukes defends Mills as she crawls to Robinson's dead body.
The S.A.R. closes in on Bukes, but then turns on Mills claiming it needs more data.
It demands she identify herself, and she calls herself human,
fatally injuring it with Robinson's gun. However, it manages to transfer its data to
her before it shuts down for good She dies immediately afterwards,
and the next thing we see is transport arriving for Bukes and Goodwin. They leave her behind,
not seeing as she awakens yet again. Like and Subscribe to watch more videos like this,
