About Cosmic Sin

In the year 2524 humanity has spread its reach to the outer planets and soldiers patrol the frontier. When a hostile alien fleet attacks a remote outpost, retired General James Ford is recalled to action. He leads a small squad of highly trained soldiers on a dangerous mission to halt the invasion before it spirals into a major war. Systems fail, alarms blare, and every choice carries a heavy cost as Ford must steer a mission that tests trust, skill, and nerve. The pace stays brisk, blending hard edged action with space age tech and tactical maneuvers rather than grand spectacle. This is a lean science fiction action adventure built for speed and momentum. Peril lurks in the silent void.

Directed by Edward Drake, Cosmic Sin draws from an original concept by Corey Large. The 2021 release stars Bruce Willis with a compact 20 million budget, delivering a lean sci fi action ride built to move quickly and brisk pacing.

Box office numbers reflect a limited reach, with a worldwide gross of about 349,757 dollars. Against the 20 million dollar production, the film underperformed and found most of its audience outside traditional theaters. This reflects limited distribution and niche appeal.

It does not leave a lasting cultural footprint. The title faded from common conversation with only a small group of genre fans recalling its existence. There are no quotable lines or iconic scenes that fans reference in memes or retrospectives. It lacks a signature moment that would lodge in memory.

Reception was mixed to negative, and the 3.991 out of 10 rating from 574 votes reflects tepid audience response. The film centers on duty under pressure, teamwork under fire, and the personal cost of warfare, delivering action while sticking to familiar space opera tropes. Willis and Grillo deliver efficient performances.

What Viewers Are Saying

4.0/10
from 574 ratings

Cosmic Sin plays like a low budget sci fi actioner with a thin plot and bland villains barking basic motives. Bruce Willis and Frank Grillo look bored, clearly sleepwalking through their parts, while the effects scream budget more than wonder. Some visuals edge above a SyFy movie, and it flirts with the vibe of Starship Troopers or Edge of Tomorrow but never commits. Most folks say to skip it, unless you want a reminder that a big cast and a familiar setup still can’t fix a thin story.
